[Freeswitch-users] Multiple network interfaces, can't force freeswitch to use one.

[Eugene Shcherbatyuk]

This problem seems to be at least two-fold:

a) FreeSwitch is to be configured to use proper address
b) Networking infrastructure must route packets from/to proper interface

By the way, after configuring FreeSwitch you can check which addresses
it actually uses with 'lsof -i' cli command.

Given your words 'packets from my sip provider are going to 192.168.1.7'
one can suspect that your network equipment forwards traffic from your
provider to that address. FreeSwitch must listen appropriate address but
it it does not control where provider's packets are sent to. That is
network must be reconfigured as well. This well might be the cause of
the problem if your FreeSwitch is behind NAT and network just routes
packets to the wrong address.

On the other hand, if you _public_ ip address is 192.168.1.7 and it is
configured on FreeSwitch itself then no network reconfiguration needed.
But consider the fact that provider is not aware of your internal
addresses and can not reach any address except for public one.

And finally: a variable 'at the top of my vars.xml' can be overwritten
later with another assignment in configuration files.
