[Asterisk-Users] Remote SIP client HACK JOB

> Isn't this what the "externip" setting in sip.conf is for?

I have ran numerous tests - examining the SIP headers each time.  I'm not 
convinced that 'externip=' does anything at all.

With or without externip set in sip.conf, the headers send to my SIP client 
(with nat=yes) will look exactly the same... no difference at all.

I would expect the Contact field to contain this externip .. but it doesn't

Is anyone using EXTERNIP= in sip.conf?  If so, what exactly does it do?

Thanks
Ryan
