Core Issue

This problem relates to voice communications across a toll-bypass network, as shown in this network configuration:

PSTN1---Gw1(192.168.210.30)-----inside(192.168.210.1)PIX(63.99.210.129)-Outside------Internet---------(66.196.208.253)GW2---PSTN2

When PSTN1 calls PSTN2 (or vice versa), PSTN1 can not hear PSTN2, but PSTN2 can hear PSTN1.

The PIX Firewall is doing Port Address Translation (PAT) for inside IP addresses with 63.99.210.130.

Issuing the show call active voice brief command on GW2(iad2420) reveals that the 63.99.210.130 is an H.323 peer, which is correct. Refer to this command output:

Telephony call-legs: 1

SIP call-legs: 0

H323 call-legs: 1

Total call-legs: 2

Issuing the show voip rtp connections command reveals that the remote RTP peer is 192.168.210.30. So the IP address of the inside gateway has not been translated. The GW2 is sending the Real-Time Protocol (RTP) stream to a private address that goes nowhere, as shown:

VoIP RTP active connections :

No. CallId  dstCallId  LocalRTP RmtRTP LocalIP         RemoteIP

1   120     119        16434    17850  66.196.208.253  192.168.210.30

The PIX allows traffic to pass correctly for H.225 but not H.245.

Resolution

For a workaround, add this on the inside gateway (GW1):

interface Loopback0
ip address 63.99.210.130 255.255.255.255
h323-gateway voip bind srcaddr 63.99.210.130
