There is no way to disable that function currently. Pull requests are accepted, Stop by at the next office hours meeting next week and discuss it with us.

I, too, would very much like to see an option which can be passed to 
FreeSwitch to tell it not to try "anything fancy" involving uPnP, NATPMP, STUN 
etc, and simply accept the network addresses you've specified in the 
configuration file.

This would speed up startup time, and also ensure that FreeSwitch did what you 
expected it to from the config file, not what it thinks it should do instead.

Those who want it to be clever and work things out for itself can continue to 
use the current default mode of operation, of course.

Antony.
