Phil, I had a significant amount of VoIP issues earlier this year and found a few ways to combat some of the issue you're describing here. First, you can try switching the phones into TCP mode or using a STUN server with them.
Have you given siproxd a shot? Install it in your router and point your phones to siproxd on the router, it should help mitigate a lot of these issues you're having. Hope this helps, -Reza -----Original Message----- From: BSD Wiz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 5:36 PM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] rule not working correctly yes, it's causing problems. my phone won't ring when it get's blocked. that's exactly how i figured out it was getting blocked, people where telling me they were calling me but my phone never rang. i then went back and looked in the log files and noticed that the call was getting blocked. thanks, -phil On Sep 3, 2008, at 7:10 PM, Chris Buechler wrote: > On Wed, Sep 3, 2008 at 7:54 PM, BSD Wiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> please allow me to pose this question again. i am trying to allow all >> traffic from a specific source ip into my DMZ(10.0.0.0/24) for my >> VoIP >> phone. the problem is that it's not always passing the traffic and >> some >> times it's getting blocked. >> >> i have created a rule on my WAN interface as follows: >> >> UDP 216.181.136.7 * 10.0.0.0/24 * * >> >> >> >> even with the above rule in place i'm seeing the following entry >> in my logs. >> it's important to note that it doesn't always get blocked, perhaps >> it has >> something to do with the high ports as mentioned on this list before? >> >> Sep 3 18:43:43 WAN 216.181.136.7:5065 >> xx.xx.xx.xx:52042 >> UDP >> >> >> when i click on the blocked log it says: The rule that triggered >> this >> action is: >> >> @118 block drop in log quick all label "Default deny rule" >> >> >> >> >> any suggestions? >> > > Is it causing problems, or are you seeing it and thinking it's a > problem?
