I have a question can I use an asterisk box behind ix66 so the remote extension can register to the astersik box and don't have to worry about asterisk behind a nat. all my extension work fine inside the nat in the house. I need the ability to have remote extenison that will be behind some adsl modem and a router. I want sip phone remotely can register with the asterisk box and can make and receive calls from asterisk. I do have a static IP address for my home---- which can used for the ix66 ---- and how can I do this. I am considering buying IX66 --- no switch

You will need to configure the IX66 to pass UDP 5060 and some small range of UDP ports (maybe 16384-16482, if your remote client is a Sipura) for inbound to the Asterisk, but everything else should resolve automatically.

someone on the ix66 forum from the manufacturer site said that by doing pass of udp 5060 can affects ix66 native sip ability. I was brain storming and have an idea --- if the asterisk registers to the ix66 from inside and I can have upto 4 remote extension register to ix66 as users and now can call asterisk. Again I don't intend to buy the switch for the ix66 and only use the five users who can register to ix66 or possibly for the remote users ix66 would be the proxy and it registers at asterisk which is behind the ix66, IX66 working as proxy server, and nat (sip aware). Any ix66 experts tell if this will work?
