This typically happens when there is an attempt by the Asterisk box to
communicate with the gateway before Shorewall is started (before the NAT
rules are in place).

The solution is to install the conntrack package and use 'shorewall
start -p' (or shorewall restart -p) and/or install and configure
shorewall-init so that the firewall is closed prior to Shorewall being
started during boot.
