Stewart,

I see the following logging output when I attempt to call the outside
endpoint:

Unfortunately, removing the NAT translations is not possible.  I do have
connectivity from the GK box to the outside endpoint on port 1720.  I
tried removing the [RoutingPolicy] section, but no change.  I have
iptables configured on the GK box to force it to source from the
external address, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I'm still not understanding if it's possible for a registered endpoint
to make a call to an unregistered endpoint (configured as a
PermanentEndpoint).  Can you clarify for me?

Thanks.

Jason

Before you try to call, I assume that you see RRQ and RCF.

When you attempt the call, you should see:
Caller sends ARQ to GK
GK sends ACF to caller
Caller sends Setup to GK
GK sends Setup to Callee

Now, we know that the last step is not happening (on the network), but
how much of this sequence do you see in the log, and where does the IRR
occur?  What does the IRR contain?

I'm not familiar with MyPhone, but you may have better luck if you turn
off all NAT options.  The calling phone is on the same LAN as the GK, so
there is no NAT happening there.
The GK should take care of translating addresses in signaling packet
contents, so the called phone should see only public addresses.  Is it
indeed on a public IP?

I added this information to the config:

> [RoutedMode]
> AcceptUnregisteredCalls=1

> [RoutingPolicy]
> Default=explicit,dns

> [RasSrv::PermanentEndpoints]
> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx=TEST_CLIENT  (outside IP configured here)

> [RasSrv::ARQFeatures]
> CallUnregisteredEndpoints=1

> [Gatekeeper::Main]
> NetworkInterfaces=[interfaces]

I would try removing the [RoutingPolicy] section, using
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx=1234 in [RasSrv::PermanentEndpoints], where the called
phone is configured to have number 1234 and the calling phone dials
1234.  (Sorry, all of my own systems use only phone numbers, and I don't
understand the subtleties of the other ways to call.)

I don't understand what you mean by "the external IP is configured as a
loopback".  Although it may not relate to your present problem, once you
get the Setup to go out, the GK needs to know what external IP to use in
the content of various signaling packets, and NetworkInterfaces is how
you tell it what address to use.

Try e.g. "telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1720" from the GK machine, where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the address of the called phone.
If you don't see a "connected to ..." message, you have a network
configuration or firewall problem having nothing to do with gnugk.

Good luck,

Stewart
