<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#44546a>We do both of which you are
questioning. To handle the Nat'ed FS pbx clients, we installed a
freeswitch which acts as a tandem between voip suppliers and the nat'ed pbx's,
be sure in this mode you use NDLB in your profile for the tandem
FS. The Freeswitch using NDLB and registrations, easily handles
the changing IPs. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#44546a></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#44546a>We exclusively use free switch for all
products. We run a hosted multi tennant freeswitch for the small clients,
2 to 10 phones and use cloud servers independently for larger customers,
20 to 50 phones. We have a nice web based graphical interface for the free
switch that supports the multi-domain hosted servers. We were previously
using snomONE/pbxnsip, moved everything to Freeswitch and removed our most of
our problems. </FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">I have had a moment of clarity
and I think I need to rethink my business strategy with regard to FS for SMALL
Businesses (less than 5 DIDs and 5 phones/extensions). To date I have
attempted to HOST the customers phone services on a multitenant FS box “in a
bunker”. This has led to <B>many </B>setbacks due to NAT issues on the
CLIENT end with different router and phone hardware. Perhaps I have a
self-imposed problem that could be easily rectified.
<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">My strategy has been to be
sure the switch is always reachable and route to alternate phones or voicemail
if the client site is unreachable. I had thought this would provide for
the highest availability of inbound call handling. I now think
installing a FS PC onsite maybe be far simpler provided that the VOIP provider
can handle routing to a failover switch.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">So I am considering changing
from: <FS> -- public IP -- <internet> -- <NAT
Router> -- Nat’ed client phones <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">to:
<internet> -- <NAT Router> -- Nat’ed FS -- local
lan – non-nat phones<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">I am looking for folks to talk
about this configuration with FS NATed/Port Forwarded or FS dual home IP with
a public IP and a nat ip. Many small businesses can’t provide a public
IP. In fact most will occasionally have their public IP change without
notice. Clearly the VOIP provider will have to be updated with the new
address. Is there a slick way to handle that
problem?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">How well has this
configuration worked for other people?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #44546a">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
