I have based my attached SER config file on the very informative 'getting started 5' instructions/sample from http://www.onsip.org/. I have SER on a DMZ with Asterisk on the same box, listening on 5065. I can register two internal phones with SER and talk. I can register a phone to the Asterisk and talk to the rest of the Asterisk infrastructure through IAX2. I entered a log statement for my forward to asterisk and I can see that it is being executed. What I can't get to work is external phones. When I capture the RTP packets with ethereal, I can see that the ones from SER to the phones are properly addressed to the public IP of my NAT-ed phone. However the return packets are addressed to the private IP of SER and thus never make it back. Is this double NAT configuration supported? It looks that way on the getting started diagrams (both SER and Internet phones are behind NAT routers). I understand that the NAT traversal mechanism in SER is there to help clients overcome their NAT. Is there a similar mechanism for the SER server itself, or does SER only work if it has a direct public interface? How do I convince my client phones to send their packets back to the public IP of SER, rather than the private IP? What ser.cfg line determines the source IP that SER gives out to the RTP stream? It would be elegant if I can make this dependent on the source IP of the phones (internal or external) but I really only need it to work for external clients, as internal ones can simply register with Asterisk. Any hints would be most appreciated, Thanks, Bart...
