[Freeswitch-users] Auto-detecting Local IP when no gateway set

Hi All,

I am using freeswitch without local_ip_v4 explicitly set, i.e, I am
dependant on freeswitch auto-detecting the local IP address.

>From the code, what I understand is, in order to determine the local IP
address,  freeswitch tries to ‘connect()’ using a DGRAM socket with
BROADCAST option set.

The problem that I am having is, my customer is working in a Local LAN, and
is not very keen on setting the interface gateway. Without gateway set,
connect() returns 'Network unreachable' error.

Is there any way I could workaround this problem? (apart from setting
local_ip_v4) Also, any other issues forseen if gateway isn't set ont he
interface?
