[Freeswitch-users] Does FS support STUN by default?

[Rupa Schomaker]

STUN is not a way to open ports in a manner in which sheilds up would
detect.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STUN

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STUN>UPNP is what you want if you want to open
ports.

STUN is just a method for figuring out how to do nat traversal.  STUN
"method" is initiated by the process on the inside of the firewall at
connection establish time.  It will do no good for the listen case which is
what you are checking for.

If you want to use stun, then you need to forward the listen ports manually
(5060, 5080 - UDP and TCP).
