15 people? Why not use a hosts file?

Thanks to JT for the response below:

The short answer is: no.

However, there is a solution.  Set up a nameserver in your office that
replies with the "internal" address of your Asterisk server to systems
that are on your office LAN, and replies with the "outside"
address of your Asterisk server when asked from hosts outside your LAN.

This can be done crudely with just launching a local version of BIND
that has a different zone file, or it can be done more elegantly with
DNS "views" on your primary nameserver.  I'll let you and Google figure
out how to do it.  :-)
