Does this work as a far-end NAT traversal solution (ALG running only where SER/Asterisk is hosted, not where UAs are located)?

Hi Waldo,

I didn't do anything else outside the instructions as in the Getting Started Manual from Onsip.org for the SER with MySQL and connecting to a PSTN gateway.I also got the config from there. I also got a good set of tips for that in my previous posts here. As for the Siproxd, I just followed the online docs here: http://siproxd.sourceforge.net/ .

Wouldn't mind learning from your accomplishments. How about sharing
some how-tos and/or config files?

Would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Waldo
