Hmm... For outgoing connections (from the softphone) that's true, but if you want asterisk to send a call to the softphone the default would be to send it to port 5060 (which is already taken by asterisk). If the softphone is setup to register to asterisk on another port, there should be no problem.
At least this is how I thought it worked ... /Anders > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Greg Hill > Sent: den 19 december 2004 00:02 > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Setting up asterisk for one > user in private ipNAT. > that isn't quite how ports work..
