[Asterisk-Dev] Seeking a clue RE: how * does the right thing with
NAT'ed SIP/SDP devices

Folks,
I'm looking to understand how Asterisk determines if it's going to
re-write an SDP contained in a SIP message from an ill-behaving
application behind a firewall.
Specifically, the Microsoft RTC client running behind a NAT puts the
wrong IP address (the local non-routable address, rather than the NAT's
address) in the SDP header. However, Asterisk does the right thing and
send media streams to the IP address of the NAT.
I've looked through chan_sip.c:process_sdp and don't see anything that
remotely looks like logic to re-write the host.
If anyone can lend a clue to me, I'd be grateful to the tune of a couple
of beers.
Thanks,
David
