The idea is to let GnuGk handle all the firewall traversal itself, without the help of a border proxy etc. GnuGk will act as traversal server and has to be on a public IP, then endpoints behind firewalls can register and GnuGk will proxy the media for these calls and use H.460.18 and .19 to get it through the firewall. But the H.460 endpoint needs to register, I don't think you can do this with unregistered endpoints. If the caller is unregistered, but not firewalled, it can call a registered internal endpoint behind the firewall.
