Hi Stewart,

I was set ProxyForNAT=1 since the start but it does not help. Would you
know if there is some kind of development that handles encapsulation of
these packets so that they reach their destination EPs whether the EP is
NATed or not? Am very new to this, but wouldn't it be nice if there is
some kind of functionality that has an ability to preserve the packets
even if they are inside a firewall.

Hi Fernando,

This is to be expected.  The H.245 packets specified private addresses,
and audio sent there would obviously not arrive.

The Linksys probably sent out the audio packets with a different source
port than the media port used by the EP.  There was then no NAT
association for the incoming stream.

See if setting ProxyForNAT=1 helps.  Depending on your network, this may
cause problems with delay and/or choppy voice, and has a performance
penalty, so it may not be a solution for a production environment.

Alternatively, can you set the EP on the Linksys as DMZ also?  If not,
set up UDP port forwarding for the media ports.  If you want incoming
calls to work, you also need to forward TCP port 1720, and whatever is
needed for H.245 .  If you can't get incoming H.245 to work properly,
use fast start and/or H.245 tunneling.

Also, note that H245Routed implies GKRouted.  Otherwise, the EP would
not know to send the H.245 to the GK in the first place!

Good luck,

Stewart
