Antony, It is correct. Noone connects to Asterisk box/server from outside.Callcentric SIP trunk configured and Asterisk maintains connection to it itself. No special ports opened, nothing. Connection happens from us to Callcentric and all calls routed in from CallcentricI don't know exactly how it's doing it by it works. Again, keep in mind it is working for many years for most / 90+% of calls #1. I don't think it will be possible to know :( Been 3 years. #2-3. All callers call public phone number and they all come in to asterisk from Callcentric context.When we call out - it goes out through Callcentric SIP trunk. When we dial internal each others extensions there is no NAT, trunk or anything else and all works just fine... Debugging with "tshark" should be done on Asterisk machine I asume? Thank you!

That's the point where you lost me. Callcentric is out on the Internet. How does it connect to your Asterisk server? > External callers get in via Callcentric. Right... > 1.

What is the difference between callers 1, 2 and 3, in terms of how they connect to your Asterisk server, or how you connect to them? > I feel like we need to trace SIP protocol. How do I do that?

I would start with something like: # tshark -i any -f "port 5060" -w "sip.debug.pcap" and then afterwards look at the pcap file with tshark (tshark -r "sip.debug.pcap -V") or some SIP tool such as sngrep.
