Re: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug
Why don't you use the syntax that I mentioned in my first reply?
According to http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+SIP+localnet
The correct syntax is:
localnet=192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
Keyword localmask is deprecated in asterisk 1.2... And btw, you should
have seen it in the logs. According to chan_sip.c, around line 12508:
} else if (!strcasecmp(v-name, localmask)) {
ast_log(LOG_WARNING, Use of localmask is no
long supported -- use localnet with mask syntax\n);
}

the external IP and as everything is inside the firewall there is no audio
from the soft phone when the call answered.
If I comment out the 'externip' line restart asterisk, the soft phone then
correctly sees the local call as being from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I get
two-way speech.

Re: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug
Have you made sure you are also setting localnet in sip.conf? externip=1.2.3.4 localnet=192.168.0.0/255.255.255.255 Asterisk won't use externip for devices on your local network. Julian.

RE: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug
posting the relevant parts of your config (sip.conf, extensions.conf) could help to solve your problem. Guido I've recently got asterisk running on it's own pc inside my firwewall.

You didn't mention whether you were also forwarding ports 1-2 to the SIP Proxy (ie asterisk). Thats where the actual RTP (voice data) is passing. Also you need to be sure that there aren't multiple clients on your lan all trying to use the same ports for signaling (ie 5060), as this will fail. Hope this helps.

Re: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug
specially if you only have 5060 but not the sip pass through ports as he mentioned (1-2) then you can establish a call but no voice data is sent(or so that is in theory) so make sure you get this right with your asterisk box and everything should work From: Martin Joseph [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussionasterisk-users@lists.digium.com To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussionasterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:21:08 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v752.2) Received: from lists.digium.com ([69.16.138.164]) by bay0-mc3-f3.bay0.hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.2444); Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:25:02 -0700 Received: from digium-69-16-138-164.phx1.puregig.net (localhost [127.0.0.1])by lists.digium.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id A215F2FC8CF;Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:21:17 -0700 (MST) Received: from psmtp.com (exprod8mx14.postini.com [64.18.3.114])by lists.digium.com (Postfix) with SMTP id 2D1862FC8A1for asterisk-users@lists.digium.com;Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:21:07 -0700 (MST) Received: from source ([216.231.36.246]) by exprod8mx14.postini.com([64.18.7.10]) with SMTP; Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:21:07 PDT Received: from [10.0.1.87] (dsl231-036-163.sea1.dsl.speakeasy.net[216.231.36.163])by mail.stillnewt.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5F7432B8258for asterisk-users@lists.digium.com;Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:21:07 -0700 (PDT) X-Message-Info: LsUYwwHHNt2O3UvzBIdIiorH4WKvX/oX4qpvPasAygs= X-Original-To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Delivered-To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com References: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.752.2) X-pstn-levels: (S:99.9/99.9 FC:95.5390 LC:95.5390 R:95.9108 P:95.9108M:96.8350 C:98.4741 ) X-pstn-settings: 3 (1.:1.) s fc lc gt3 gt2 gt1 r p m c X-pstn-addresses: from [EMAIL PROTECTED] [db-null] X-BeenThere: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussionasterisk-users.lists.digium.com List-Unsubscribe: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users,mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] List-Archive: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users List-Post: mailto:asterisk-users@lists.digium.com List-Help: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] List-Subscribe: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users,mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Errors-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-OriginalArrivalTime: 22 Jul 2006 18:25:03.0419 (UTC) FILETIME=[264598B0:01C6ADBC] On Jul 22, 2006, at 11:13 AM, Robert Jenkins wrote: Oh well..
