[Asterisk-Users] how to add stun functionality in asterisk

[Bill Gibbs]

What's the benefit of using stund vs nat=yes in your sip.conf for that
device?  I haven't had any issues behind firewalls when I enable that
option, and no ports are needed to be opened.

JP,
There isn't much to show :)
Yes.. I am running the STUN server on the asterisk box so that VoIP
ATA's and phones behind firewall's can connect to the asterisk server
with no ports needing to be opened.

Setup is...
download stund.
unzip.. compile... run
WALA!  Stun server :)

Then just put the address for the stun server in your ATA and it also
just "works".  You may need to tinker with the "VIA" settings in your
ATA.

you running STUN so that your phones behind NAT can easily connect to
your server or the other way around? I would really like to see the
relevant parts of your setup.
