Yes, I do forward ports and only allow specific ip's to those ports due to my home network setup. I currently have 5 servers, (4 windows server 2008 and 1 linux server), Several Ip cameras, and multiple desktops/laptops.
I am using a cisco asa 5510 as my firewall and a cisco (not linksys) router. And as you say, forwarding ports means you've got issues with your network. I disagree, my network does not have issues due to using a real firewall and router. My internet provider does not block any ports and provides all access to the internet, so there are often bots and hackers attempting to enter or block traffic. I also have several devices using the same ip, sip and/or voip ports, which requires forwarding the traffic to the correct device.
I would agree many home setups do not need a real router or port forwarding, but in my case it is needed.
So again, I ask
Now that there are new database servers, other sip servers
east01, central01, central02 and sip.voipwelcome
What ports and IP addresses are voipo addresses?
