[Serusers] Any Docs on how to set up an OutBound Proxy Server?

[Yang Xiang]

Hi,

we have many experiences with Cisco PIX 515. There is a built-in SIP-gateway
in PIX, therefore, the IP and port should be replaced with the outside IP
and port of the PIX. (notice, in your config this is not the IP given by
your ISP)

I think you problem is not with your PIX but with the  DLink because it is
not SIP-aware. Consider to use another PIX product instead such as PIX 501
or PIX 506 which supports PPPoE. As workaround you can use the nathelper
module to rewrite the contact field and open the udp ports needed for rtp
streams on the DLink.
