Greg,
Basically, you can do four things (first two for dialing asterisk-ser, the next two for dialing ser-asterisk):
1. Accept INVITEs from a specific src ip (asterisk) and add if(src_ip != asterisk_ip) around the INVITE authentication to avoid that part being triggered
2. Or you accomplish the same thing be adding asterisk to the trusted table and us if(!allow_trusted) instead. This will give you more control as you can filter on ruri as well.
3. You can create an account in asterisk and have asterisk register with SER like a regular user (who will be available in location for dialling into asterisk). This only makes sense if you have one main number for all users registered on asterisk (you don't need 1 or 2 if you do this)
4. Use some kind of routing, either through manual configuration (uri=~"some pattern", then forward to asterisk) or use the LCR (least cost routing) module to look up the ruris and forward to asterisk. This must be done in combination with 1 or 2.
 
Hope this helps.
