Thread: Setting up SIP Communicator for test calls?




Setting up SIP Communicator for test calls?

First of all I suppose I should introduce myself as this is my first post to the dev mailing list. Hello, I'm Ryan Ricard. I'm a student at the University of Texas at Dallas working on the audio/video mailbox as part of the summer of code. Glad to be working with y'all

Anyway, on to my question. I was trying to set up a test call today to see If I have the proper idea of how Sip-Communicator handles incoming calls, and I came upon a bit of a snag: My current internet setup here on campus does not allow me a public IP address. Since I'm pretty sure port forwarding is out of the question, is there any way to have SIP communicator send/receive calls over the LAN or local machine?

Or, alternatively, what is the standard procedure for testing incoming/outgoing calls?

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Same here. Welcome to the list.

I'll start working on basic NAT traversal for SIP
Communicator next 
week. However in order not to keep you waiting I guess it
would be 
better for us to create a couple of accounts for you on our
local 
asterisk installation (which handles NAT traversal).

We'll send you the details as soon as they're ready.

Cheers
