[Asterisk-Users] STUN and Asterisk? (Was: SER is a better NAT solution?)

[Matthew Boehm]

STUN requires 2 NIC interfaces on the machine running the server right? And
both interfaces need seperate public IP's right? 'And' the phones/ATA's need
to support STUN right? I don't think the Cisco phones support STUN.
