I guess the question becomes -- What unit is a 'consumer' of 
those SRV records? On the chart at:
        
http://www.myitdepartment.net/support/sipx_bridge_pfsense_bandwidth-dot-com.pdf

I had understood that the sipXecs unit behind the firewall 
(upper right corner) was reaching out to, and transferring 
non-local content in and out across a 'trunk' to a 
counterparty sipXecs ISP (lower right corner)

The sipXecs ISP (lower right corner) is out in fully routable 
space, and in in turn is connection and authentication to [in 
this example] bandwidth.com (center lower cloud).  Why do we 
care where the unit behind the fireswall is, as it will never 
receive direct content, as I understand the setup

[I may be wholly wrong here, and some unit other than the 
sipXecs ISP may be initiating connections ... ]

I ask, because we added support in our DNS management GUI for 
SRV records for a customer wanting it for FreeSwitch support, 
but we cannot see any queries hitting it in our domain query 
logs  A sanitized version of a zone file, not showing that 
customer's details, is at:
