[Asterisk-Users] Trouble with 2 NIC cards

[Asterisk]

The problem should be easy enough to solve for someone who knows the
internal guts. As a matter of fact, this is very important to resolve.
Asterisk behind firewall is trouble and that is known already. So I
decided to use the same linux box as firewall, meaning I need atleast
two NICs. I wonder how others are solving this issue. I refuse to
believe that no one faced similar problems cause there is no other way
for a beginner to plant an Asterisk box but have two NICs or go through
the NAT troubles. Moreover, there are news posts all over about SIP
phones meaning others are connecting more than one NICs. Wonder why they
don't have similar issue. I am sure that there are more out there who
are facing similar problems so people who have solved this, please speak
up and help us all.

Thanks in advance.
Ricky

Hello,
I have the quite similiar problem like yours except that both of my NIC
have
fix public ip from different ISP provider.
Unfortunately we are unable to make it work. This is due to some routing
issues of the Asterisk box. My collegue was trying hard to seting up the
routing tables, but did no succeed.

We finally has given up trying. The solution we have make is to have 2
different asterisk iax server and make these server peer to each other,
but
not yet try though.
