Re: Configuration help needed for Cisco 7905

I am coming back to the list with this old problem, because although I have made some progress I still can't get my Cisco 7905 handset to work behind my NAT router and siproxd, though more modern softphones are fine.

The problem that I originally reported below had to do with the Cisco not being able to reach DNS - that is now fixed, and I can now make outgoing calls (even without siproxd).  The problem comes with incoming calls.

In order to receive incoming calls I'm registering the Cisco with siproxd, and the registration is showing up correctly in the siproxd_registrations file:

***:1:1376210552
sip
cisco
192.168.15.122                   # this is the local network address of the phone
5060
sip
cisco
128.107.224.32                   # this is the external IP address

sip
cisco
my.sip.server.net                 # this is my SIP server

When I try to dial in my other softphones will ring, but the Cisco won't.  The siproxd log shows:

Aug 11 16:18:17 servalan siproxd[27573]: plugin_logcall.c:126 INFO:Outgoing Call: 0000123456-pU0pTbRKGX/[email protected] -> [email protected] [Req: [email protected]]

(192.168.15.200 is the machine running siproxd.)  A packet dump shows this:

Any more help would be much appreciated!
