We’re using the dispatcher with MySQL. Here’s the setid from kamcmd dispatcher.list, this dns resolves to the Asterisk local ip 10.2.5.206, are you saying I should use udp: instead of sip: for my DEST entry? Would that really make any difference?
SET: {
ID: 100
TARGETS: {
DEST: {
URI: sip:rtp-media.opm-media-namespace:5080?transport=DNS
FLAGS: AX
PRIORITY: 0
}
}
}

In the dispatcher routing records, be sure you have the attribute socket=udp:localip:5080.

Using a different port for Asterisk is not a bad idea. I might just try that. I will return with the results or any follow up questions.

Hello,
the simplest way is to listen on another port (e.g., 5080) and use that socket to communicate with Asterisk. For that listen parameter, do not set the advertise address. You can use $fs or force_send_socket() to specify the socket to be used for sending out to Asterisk.
The alternative is to play in the config file with the function of the rr module that allow you to set the address in the Record-/Route headers, but it may increase the complexity of the config.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hello,
I am not successful in my attempts to configure my Kamailio to work behind NAT.
The flow of an incoming call is Provider (Internet) -> AWS LoadBalancer -> Kamailio -> Asterisk
Both the Kamailio and Asterisk is on the internal network. The issue I am having is that I need to add Record-Route to the traffic sent back towards the provider, but not to the Asterisk. Currently when I add the record_route() the header is sent to Asterisk which makes it reply to the Kamailio advertised external address for ACKs, BYEs etc.
I have dumbed down my Kamailio config as much as possible for this, to show what I am currently doing.
