Glad to hear it helped you Dennison. <div><br></div><div>VPN is such a confusing beast to lots of people I think and hence the responses to this thread were all sort of work around and sometimes off-topic. It's also not well documented or maybe the feature is not widely used within the Asterisk community. I think it would be very good if some standard guidelines become available from the Asterisk side on this.</div>

</div>I just wanted to give a +1 for this response. I am using openvpn to<br>
connect road warriors and remote offices to a central asterisk server.<br>
When setting up the configuration for the road warriors I created a new<br>
subnet for them, but forgot to include their subnet as a localnet<br>
directive in sip.conf. The result was that sip clients on the road<br>
warrior network would be able to register, but then when initiating a<br>
sip call the 200 response (to the INVITE from the client) from the<br>
asterisk server would include a contact address for some external ip<br>
that I did not recognize. This hint here allowed me to fix this bug,<br>
now calls from the road warrior subnet are coming in fine. Thanks!<br>
