IAX Softphone Ext.203 ----------------------->
-------------->IP
192.168.2.238------>Router---------->IP 192.168.2.254 Asterisk Server
SIP Softphone Ext 204 ----------------------->

WAN my.dyndns.domain
<------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
Both phones point to my.dyndns.domain for the server but only SIP works. IAX
works only if I use the internal LAN IP address (192.168.2.238)
