There is a bug and the bug has been fixed in the CVS version. I will be
doing some testing and ensure that it works for the next release.

All,

Gnugk has/had full outbound access. It is also statically NATed. 

I ran a packet trace and now know the issue but so far have been unable to
fix it. Calls from external to internal endpoints work perfectly through
gnugk. Same goes for internal to internal. However, internal to fails.

Here's the setup:
Gnugk server: physical IP: 10.1.1.1, external NAT: 1.1.1.1 (NATed-static,
all required ports open on both sides) External endpoint: gatekeeper
registered to 1.1.1.1 Internal endpoint: gatekeeper registered to 10.1.1.1

When internal calls external, I can see in the packet trace that the
internal endpoint is trying to hit 1.1.1.1 instead of 10.1.1.1. In other
words, it's trying to go out to the NAT/external address instead of the
internal address that it's registered to.

I suspect it's something to do with home IP / external IP / internalnetwork,
but no matter how much I tinker with them, either calls don't even start to
work, or it just doesn't connect (and I see the issue below).

Here's my config, and again I'm running 2.3.1:

[Gatekeeper::Main]
Fortytwo=42
TimeToLive=600
Home=10.1.1.1
ExternalIP=1.1.1.1

[RoutedMode]
GKRouted=1
H245Routed=1
CallSignalPort=1720
RemoveH245AddressOnTunneling=1
DropCallsByReleaseComplete=1
SupportNATedEndpoints=1
SupportCallingNATedEndpoints=1
Q931PortRange=30000-30999
H245PortRange=31000-31999
EnableH46018=1

[Proxy]
Enable=1
ProxyAlways=1
T120PortRange=40000-40999
RTPPortRange=50000-59999
InternalNetwork=10.0.0.0/8

[GkStatus::Auth]
rule=allow

[RasSrv::RRQFeatures]
SupportDynamicIP=1


Thanks for any other ideas you have... !

Hi Ken,

Try to allow the gnugk to access any any outbound on the cisco ASA.
Also you have to make sure the NAT ports are not mapped dynamical but static
so port localip:40001 get translated into externalip:40001

Also Tandberg has a few demands on firewall ports to open but since you are
using gnugk this should be proxied by gnugk.

Our firewall is a Cisco ASA. I have turned off all H323 inspection.
Calling from external endpoint to internal endpoint works and I now have
full audio/video. Internal to external fails, it just rings and rings. 

Also, an internal to internal connection works, but only if I set the
Tandberg to use static H323 ports. I still need to update the code on that
endpoint which may help.

Still testing... ;)

Thanks!

Ken;

Glad things are moving forward.  The other questions, we'll need to know

more about your environment, the firewall, while things may be open, if it's
a state full inspection firewall it may be blocking things anyway, smart is
not always better.  You also don't mention which way works, and

which way does not.

but I'm light-years further than I was. Any other settings you or anyone
recommend for having the gatekeeper NATed and external endpoints NATed?
I still have some issues were I can call one way but not the other.
Thanks!
