[Freeswitch-users] Control of IPv6 vs. IPv4

Tue Jan 6 21:37:35 MSK 2015

"And for new Freeswitch users, it would probably be good to add a comment
that SIP gateways defined in “
/usr/local/freeswitch/conf/sip_profiles/external/” are implicitly IPv4
gateways.  Sure, it all makes sense now…"

Not necessarily. Firstly those configuration files are meant as an example.
You're probably referring to the vanilla example. It's entirely possible to
have the config files laid out in another manner, even to the point of a
single flat (but very large) file.

You can have as many or few profiles are you require, and 'external' is
just a name and doesn't mean anything special. You could have your external
profile listening on IPv6 and then those gateways would be IPv6.

The key point is that the IP that the gateways use will depend upon the
settings of the profile the gateways are defined upon.
