Hello again,

- I configured a 1:1 NAT to sipx and removed the old inbound NAT Rules
- Using this neat little command (curl -s http://checkip.dyndns.org | sed
's/[a-zA-Z/<> :]//g') I confirmed that that the outbound NAT was working
correctly... that is to say the externally detected IP matches the external
IP configured in public DNS.  (this brings up the question: If internal DNS
uses the private LAN IP and external DNS uses the Public IP would that screw
with me?)
- I followed the steps outlined below concerning P-A-I
- I applied the patch mentioned below.

The Polycom phones successfully place a call on hold but drop the call when
attempting to resume the call.  MOH is not currently set on the phone or the
sipXbridge, and incoming calls are going to a hunt group (ext 300)

Watching the CDR's the incoming number shows a call in progress to ext. 300
and when the call is placed on hold that call remains and whatever extension
from the hunt group answered (i.e. 202) shows a call in progress to
[email protected]

That doesn't seem entirely correct to me??? Is it?

Another bit of information I haven't added thus far but remembered might be
important has to do with the configuration files generated by sipx for the
Polycom Phones.  Attempting to troubleshoot on my own I read this wiki page
http://sipx-wiki.calivia.com/index.php/HowTo_configure_Polycom_SoundPoint_IP
_phones_with_sipX

It states "sipXconfig supports Polycom firmware releases 1.6.x and 2.x. By
default newly created Polycom devices (or imported Polycom devices) are
presumed to have 1.6 firmware installed. When adding or editing the phone
you can tell sipXconfig which firmware version it uses (please not that 2.0
really means any 2.x firmare)."

I ran the command to generate 2.x compatible files...  Is this information
outdated? Would running that command screw me up?

The phones are currently running:
Bootrom: 4.1.3 release
Firmware: 3.1.3RevC

Do I need to run 2.x firmware for compatibility?  If so, does the bootrom
version matter?

Thanks for humoring me on this,

Jonathan Petersen

Please read wiki page update on the implications of not supporting
P-A-I and read how to configure account without P-A-I here:

Please make sure you apply the following patch before the test:
