Hi,

I am working on a project involving Kamailio dockerezation, which is meant to run alongside Freeswitch and RTPEngine containers, on the basis of a Docker-Compose file which is launched on top of a CentOS 7.7 host system.
I was able to create and run the containers successfully, they are starting and listening to the correct ports, but for some unexplained reason - the incoming SIP traffic is not getting picked up by Kamailio. I can easily trace the traffic from the host, but when SSHing the container and running a test from within, no traffic goes by.
I've used netcat to generate plain UDP traffic to the container, and it was logged into the Kamailio log files, but real-life traffic doesn't seem to work.
I've tried moving to host mode (from bridge), but it didn't make any difference. All required firewall rules were opened obviously, I've also tried shutting the firewall off completely but it didn't help.

Does anyone experienced anything similar while running Kamailio in Dockers, and could provide me a go-through on what steps did he take to fix it?
