Siproxyd is a proxy for SIP and has little to do with TFTP. The issue you
mentioned sounds like it is really an issue of getting TFTP to work.
You could really do one of two things put a TFTP inside the network with your phone or attempt to us NAT and rules to forward the TFTP traffic. I have not tried TFTP through NAT yet since my Asterisk server, TFTP server and phones are all on the LAN side of the network.
Hope this helps.

I've been able to get the Cisco phone working behind the firewall now.
I'm able to make and receive phone calls.
There is one item which isn't working. Our PBX is outside of the
pfsense firewall. These Cisco phones use TFTP to pull the config files.
For some reason, I can't get the phones to connect to our PBX via TFTP.
They connect fine if I manually configure each phone one by one, but I
would prefer to use TFTP to update the configs.
I googled around and noticed that people were using siproxyd. Should I
install that via pfSense? Or is there something else I can do that will
allow tftp to work?
Thanks again.

Hi all,
I'm in charge of replacing our Cisco PIX firewall with one that will allow
us to use VPN, and a bunch of my other sysadmin friends have suggested
using pfsense. Everything was super easy to set up initially, and now I
want to get our Cisco 7971 SIP VoIP phones working behind NAT.
I was wondering if anyone had to do something similar, or if anyone has a
link or links to some helpful resources that will push me in the right
direction.
Thanks in advance!
Visit Firewall, Nat, Outbound. Enable Advanced outbound NAT.
Edit auto-created LAN rule, check static-port. Save.
It should work okay now.
