Hi,

You have to do a couple of things:
1. Open your firewall so it allows the protocol you want to
use.
2. Configure asterisk to accept guest calls
3. Configure asterisk to ring some phones when someone dials
your domain.

Remember, only ppl with voip can reach you this way. Normal
landline phones can only reach you when you have a landline
connected to a tdm card or if you connect with a voip
provider.

Good luck
