A: Since version 0.5.1, siproxd DOES do full duplex RTP proxying.
This eliminates some problems with UAs that *insist* on symmetric
RTP traffic.
#A: This is the correct behaviour. Incoming RTP traffic
# is handled by siproxd's RTP proxy. However, outgoing RTP traffic has
# to be handled by the firewall (IP masquerading).

Q: How do I setup IP masquerading for the outgoing RTP traffic?
@@ -146,12 +143,6 @@ A: The RTP proxy actually is quite simple. It does not use any RTP
(configurable) that will stop RTP streams that have been inactive
(no data received) for a specified time.
The above only applies for reception of data FROM the outbound
interface (usually a public IP).
Outgoing traffic must be handled (masqueraded) by the firewall itself
(using ipchains or iptables rules).

firewall (ipchains/iptables) is running?

A: Since version 0.5.2, IPCHAINS and IPTABLES are no longer supported.
Use the RTP relay instead.
#A: Simple. In the config file set the configuration option
# rtp_proxy_enable = 2. Siproxd *must* then be started by root, I
# highly recommend to let siproxd drop privileges after startup
# (user, chrootjail config options).
# Note: The UDP port range for incomming RTP data still uses the same
# range as configured in the config file.

properly with the RTP relay.
#A: It has been observed that these SIP phone seems to be delicate there.
# You should use the IPCHAINS based RTP proxy and your SIP phone must

#A: Siproxd IPCHAIN support works only with kernels 2.2.x. The

A: Since Version 0.5.3 this is supported.
