I don't think any of this is really needed. Enabling ICE support in
sip.conf or pjsip.conf and configuring a STUN server should be enough
for what you are trying to do.

With ICE support asterisk will fill the SIP request with alternative IPs
it found out using STUN and the external IP will also be there for the
other communication end to try to connect to.

If you also have access to a TURN server you can configure that will
make things work even better, but is not strictly required if you
configure your router to forward a port range to your asterisk machine.
