Actually you would need a gateway. The "GNU Gatekeeper" just happens to be a piece of software, that implements both a gatekeeper and a gateway. > Till now I've setup one GnuGK mainly based on the NAT.INI and with > some more tweaks that people advised, also I've tried a neighbor setup > with one GK at each location (and I've experienced some problems) but > this kind of setup didn't seemed right to me. You may have one (or multiple) GK per site, or possibly one for all of your sites. Assumed, that there is no NAT between the sites. It's a design choice. One GK per site enables you to be able to place phone calls within one site, even if the VPN is down. > What I would like: that each location could receive external calls (so > not dependent from present GK), could do external calls (mainly what > we have been asked is by IP or E.164@IP) and of course dial each other > in the internal network. You do not have IPs for the phones as they are NATed. What you may do, is to have one Gateway (i.e. the GnuGK) with an external address (or a port forwarding), that is accessible from the outside. Additionally it will serve as a proxy from the outside to the inside or vice versa. Outsiders then may be able to call you e.g. by "E.143@GatewayIP". Whether or not you implement one gateway or three is again a design choice and up to you. The next questions would be, how exactly shall a "NUMBER@IP" be resolved if one of your external partners calls in, or you're calling out to them (i.e. RAS/LRQ or no RAS)? Can you dial IP addresses on your phone? Or would you have to adjust your dial-plan to enable outgoing dialling? Regards, David -- David Dahlberg Fraunhofer FKIE, Dept.
