[Freeswitch-users] FreeSwitch running on VM. What all ports need to be forwarded.

[Anurag Rana]

Thanks for the help !

I did all that you guys mentioned.
Forwarded all the ports,mentioned on this link
<https://confluence.freeswitch.org/display/FREESWITCH/Firewall>, from
windows server to VM.


Window server have public IP, but for now we are testing/running system
inside the LAN. Here is the scenario ->

Two twinkle soft-phones running on two different machines and are connected
to windows server (which also have public address but since we are using in
LAN so Twinkles are connecting to server using server's local address)

Twinkle user 1005 (192.168.XXX.181) -> Windows server ( 192.168.XXX.40) ->
ports forwarded -> VM (192.168.XXX.145)
Twinkle user 1007 (192.168.XXX.190) -> Windows server ( 192.168.XXX.40)
->  ports forwarded -> VM (192.168.XXX.145)

*What is happening ( Tracked using wireshark) :->*

sip packets are going from 192.168.XXX.181 to 192.168.XXX.40      (as
expected)
sip packets are received from 192.168.XXX.40 to 192.168.XXX.181  (as
expected)

RTP packets going from 192.168.XXX.181 to 192.168.XXX.145 (*not expected*)
sip packets are received from 192.168.XXX.40 to 192.168.XXX.181  (as
expected)

Also I have set these values

<param name="ext-rtp-ip" value="$${external_rtp_ip}"/>
<param name="ext-sip-ip" value="$${external_sip_ip}"/>

where external_sip_ip and external_rtp_ip  == 192.168.XXX.40  (windows
servers address)

*But still there is no sound.*
*Am I still missing something?*

Please let me know if more info/trace is required.
