[Asterisk-Users] Multiple IAX Phones Behind NAT

[Wiley Siler]

The port for sip is 5060.
Why no just map an ext to an internal and the problem us solved.
Assuming you have FW access and enough Ips.

Steve:

But how will that work for incoming calls?  Assume that three phones
have registered with an Asterisk box from inside a NAT, then * knows
that these three users can be found at x.x.x.x port 4569.  When *
receives an incoming call intended for one of those users, all it can do
is forward those calls to x.x.x.x:4569, right?  In that case I don't
understand how the NAT can know to which user the incoming call is
referring.

Not true;

You just need the iax phones to register, and then they will work fine
through the NAT; whatever port they're on on local machines, and
whatever port they get NATted to won't matter.
