Re: [asterisk-users] Two Asterisks behind NAT and need to link them using IAX trunk

bilal,
you are right.  you need to add port forwarding (UDP) to your router... should work nicely then for iax.  also, don't forget you iptables or firewall port config to accept iax on your * box.

Hi List;  I heared that IAX is good for NATing issues, but I do not know if it can help me in that senario:  I have two Asterisks machines in different sites and both are behind NAT (both have private IP address), I need to link these two asterisks with IAX trunk (if it help really in such senario), but I do not know if it will work without doing special routing settings on the router (like TCP/UDP port mapping or IP forwarding)? How that will be it if possible? Or I have to do a kind of port mapping?  If I will need to use port mapping, then I have to map the TCP and UDP ports that are determined in iax.conf and rtp.conf files at site A for asterisk ip address at site A? Or I have to map the TCP and UDP ports that are in iax.conf and rtp.conf at site B for asterisk ip address at site A? In other words, if I am at site B then I have to go for router B and do mapping for TCP/UDP ports of the asterisk at site B or the asterisk at site A?  Any help.
