FusionPBX for ex-Trixbox users

This blog is intended to be read in sequential order as it is a series of steps that I followed to build a fully functioning fusionpbx phone system. However you might just need to find out how to do a particular thing so you might want to use the search box below to find that specific step. Please give feedback - if you know a better way to do something share it!

Double NAT

I wanted to put a phone for my phone system on someone else's home network.  This means that the FreeSWITCH/FusionPBX server is on my home network behind NAT and the phone is behind NAT on their home network.  ie. it is a double NAT scenario.

This worked for me - I created a doublenat sip profile following instructions in the FreeSWITCH wiki (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/General_NAT_example_scenarios).  If you want to save yourself some trouble you can upload this to your server in the freeswitch/conf/sip_profiles directory on your server.  Make sure you set the permissions on the new file to be the same as the existing profiles in that directory.  After this  you should be able to restart freeswitch and see the new profile there.  You will need to register the remote phone with your external IP address:5090.

Download the doublenat profile here.
