[OpenSIPS-Users] dispatch to Asterisk cluster behind NAT

[Ovidiu Sas]

Running opensips at the edge of the network is simpler then running it
behind a firewall (the config needs more tweaks).
If you don't have a lot of experience with opensips, I would recommend
running opensips on two interfaces.
