[Asterisk-Users] Status of SIP with an outgoing proxy?

[Nate Carlson]

Hey all,

Doing a search of the mailing list archives turns up a couple requests for 
support of an outgoing SIP proxy, and the following wishlist request:

http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0000359

I'm trying to get a Vonage softphone account working, and it's mostly
working, but it appears that I need the outbound proxy support for it to
work. Basically, I can register and such on port 5061, but when I try to
do an outgoing call it uses the URI:

To: sip:xxx at sphone.vopr.vonage.net:5061

which results in a 403 or 404 error. When I make a call with the softphone 
and dump the traffic with Ethereal, the To is:

To: sip:xxx at sphone.vopr.vonage.net

which should default to port 5060.

If anyone knows of another way to get Asterisk to copy this behavior, I'd 
be all ears.  :)

Oh, if I use port 5060 directly, I *can* make calls to other Vonage
phones, but I get a 'Forbidden' when trying to dial non-Vonage numbers. I
also can't register on port 5060.  :(
