> Let's say you have the following transport definition:
> ```
> [transport-udp]
> type=transport
> protocol=udp
> bind=0.0.0.0
> external_media_address=x.x.x.x
> ```
> We're saying that regardless of who I'm sending a packet to, advertise as {{x.x.x.x}} in the SDP. This may be a bit odd, as it means we want to advertise as that IP address regardless of the network we send on - but in some odd situations (like where you're running Asterisk in a Docker container with `network=host` and you're communicating with stuff inside the Docker container which may also be punching holes through its NAT'd network back to the outside world) you may want to do that.
> (The above is purely hypothetical).
> Unfortunately, in today's implementation, we will ignore the `external_media_address`, as checking a `localnet` that is NULL (because it wasn't set) against the address we're sending to will always return 'true' - so Asterisk will always think we're sending a SIP message to a network within our localnet. Even though we didn't define one.
