http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3581.txt To force RFC3581 support for outbound REGISTER messages, you can set "nat=force_rport" in the general section of your sip.conf. (This also forces RFC3581 compliance for inbound messages, for any peers that inherit this general option) In my testing this results in the outbound REGISTER setting rport like "Via: SIP/2.0/UDP X.X.X.X:5060;branch=z9hG4bK493d3405;rport" If the far end supports RFC3581 it should respond back to the port from what it received requests. That should be 5060 if they receive the message from 5060. However.. if your VM/Network provider is rewriting things, then they could potentially remove your rport value, send it out over a different port, or do any number of crazy things. Depending on what they have going on in their network, receiving it back at 5060 is no guarantee it'll get back to your Asterisk VM. -- Rusty Newton Digium, Inc. | Community Support Manager 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - US direct: +1 256 428 6200 Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
