[Serusers] Asterisk SER NAT issue - sr-users

30 Apr 2008

Hi guys,
I'm trying to get this constellation running

Asterisk (priavte IP)---->SER (public IP)---->Asterisk  (public IP)

I've already Asterisk set up to put the external IP to the SIP messages 
with this parameter in sip.conf
externip = 82.98.89.129
but I'm not sure what I have to configure on SER. Do I need the nathelper?
My config of SER looks like this:
# ----------- global configuration parameters ------------------------
debug=4         # debug level (cmd line: -dddddddddd)
#debug=0
fork=no
log_stderror=yes # (cmd line: -E)

check_via=no    # (cmd. line: -v)
dns=no           # (cmd. line: -r)
rev_dns=no      # (cmd. line: -R)
#listen=10.4.1.80
port=5060
children=4
fifo="/tmp/ser_fifo"

}

        if (!t_relay()) {
               sl_reply_error();
        };
                #log(1,

                #sl_send_reply("180", "Ringing");
}

        if (uri =~ "sip:0[0-9]@*") {
                log(1, "Forwarding to MG03 \n");
                rewritehostport("82.98.89.176:5060");
                route(1);
                break;
        }
}

I appreciate any help
Thanks
