AFAIK, if the rule is already in iptables, nothing should happen, all is ok. > And then rtpengine failed to start? If the rule in iptables doesn't exist, rtpengine starts fine, but is doing user space forwarding, not kernel forwarding. Calls run fine, only that more cpu is used on rtpengine system (and maybe a little bit more delay, but nothing that can be noticed or to worry about) -- cpu usage is still low for couple of hundred active calls (when I tested), so it is not easy to notice always if the rtpengine does user space forwarding or kernel based forwarding. That's why I asked here to see what would be the best way to ensure everything is prepared for kernel based forwarding.
