I tried OpenSBC a long time ago and went with Ingate for siptrunks. I think there is the beginning of a wiki page started for OpenSBC:

The issue you have is NAT traversal. You are trying to define a siptrunk in your dial plan byy the providers IP address. IF you have a public IP address on your phones and your sip system with no firewalls, this would actually work. Because you are on a private network though, you can't traverse NAT natively with sipx, until the next major relase ships.

So you need to:

1. Use an ATA to connect to a provider (Vonage, whatever) and connect the phone line to a FXO gateway that works with sipx 2. Use a SBC or SIP aware firewall to connect to the sip trunk, and define that device (not the provider directly) and use it as a gateway within sipx.
3. Use a standard POTS line with an FXO gateway.

SIP doesn't traverse NAT through a firewall easily. Just forwarding port 5060 won't help. The media uses high ports and is random, plus a picture is worth a thousand words.

Something like FreeSWITCH should work as well, right? Aim sipX at FreeSWITCH and vice versa? I had calls coming and going with FreeSWITCH... Just thinking out loud here
