Hi Tony,

Thanks for the feedback. I thought you would be the one replying to this
question. :)

I think I understand what you're saying. I'm new to pfSense and was
wondering if you wouldn't mind clearing up a couple of questions I have.
First of all, here's how I originally set up pfSense:

   1. On the Firewall: NAT: Outbound page, I selected "Manual Outbound NAT
   rule generation (AON - Advanced Outbound NAT)" and clicked Save. Two
   Outbound NAT mappings were automatically added.
   2. I edited the "Auto created rule for LAN to WAN" mapping, selected
   Static Port and clicked Save.
   3. On the Firewall: NAT: Port Forward page, I added the required mappings
   and rules for sipXecs (this is pretty straight forward, so I will not go
   into the details).

Based on your response, I believe I need to change steps one and two. Please
let me know if this is correct:

   1. On the Firewall: NAT: Outbound page, ensure "Automatic outbound NAT
   rule generation (IPsec passthrough included)" is selected (i.e. don't change
   the default).
   2. Add an Outband NAT mapping, set the source to the sipXecs server and
   select Static Port.

The available source types on an Outbound NAT mapping are "any" and
"Network". I do not have my sipXecs box in a different subnet than the rest
of my network (I only have a handful of phones and rarely add or replace
phones). Can I set the source to just one IP address? Let's say my sipXecs
box has an IP address of 192.168.1.10 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
Can I set the source of the Outbound NAT mapping to 192.168.1.10/32?

I appologize for asking what are probably pretty basic networking questions.
This isn't in my area of expertise.

Thanks,
Tim
