[Freeswitch-users] Some questions regarding IPs and gateway

Hello,

sorry for all the confusion I did:

Its a IP associated to one nic of the server. No firewall involved. I've
got five nics, with five nets associated:

- eth0 -> 192.168.0.X [using this for cluster-communication]
- eth1 -> 192.168.2.X [using this for cluster-communication]
- eth2 -> static ip, rechable from the internet
- eth3 -> 192.168.1.X [using this for the phones]
- eth4 -> private MPLS net to my provider, using this for the SIP trunk

I would like exclude eth0/eth1/eth2 from the configs. I found the acl.conf
where I'm able to configure netmasks and stuff like this. I will try this,
hope this is correct. Also I will bind FS to 192.168.1.X trough the local
ip setting in vars.xml. Comments?

Allright.

Thanks!
