      @fifinon:

      the protocol used for my voip configuration is H323!

      can you please explain me this ( reduce  the RTP port range for a Easier rule creation )?

      I do not have experience with h323 but 'google'  ;) told me that both(sip and h323) signaling protocols uses RTP for media transport, in this case audio is the media.

      Every time you get no audio or one way audio, it means you are having RTP issues.

      At asterisk, default RTP range is from 10000 to 20000. I have no idea how h323 handles this.

      Returning to firewall….
      RTP packages sents 'inpackage' information telling other part how(and for who) he will return the package. When you have NAT, or server thinks he is behind NAT, the information inside the package will tell the other side to return the package to a wrong or unreachable destination.

      maybe there is a problem in NAT ! i will wait for other idea about this because i'm newbie !
      thanks alot.

        this is another captur of my state table in site C :

        Proto    Source -> Router -> Destination    State   
        udp 172.16.3.200:1719 <- 172.16.1.200:4562 SINGLE:MULTIPLE 
        udp 172.16.1.200:4562 -> 172.16.6.200:1719 MULTIPLE:SINGLE 
        udp 172.16.3.200:48607 <- 172.16.1.200:1719 NO_TRAFFIC:SINGLE 
        udp 172.16.1.200:1719 -> 172.16.6.200:48607 SINGLE:NO_TRAFFIC 
        udp 172.16.1.200:4561 <- 172.16.6.200:48607 NO_TRAFFIC:SINGLE

          Diagnostics –> Packet Capture

          Do a "call capture" then open with Wireshark ( Telephony -> VoIP Calls -> Flow ) and check where the RTPs Come & Go, then you can figure what is happening.

              Create one with serverA => serverB and serverB => serverA.

              Free all traffic between voip servers.

                  I think the problème is in the NAT !! because when i turn off NAT filtre in advance setup the voip work very good, but the navigation in internet don't work (no internet acces) so i don't know how to give acces to internet !!! do you have any idea ????

                    The server is on the same subnet as machines?

                    If so, disable automatic nat and create your own nat out rules.

                    Ps.
                    It sounds strange to me that some services will need nat and some don't.

                        I really don't understand this problème!!!
                        i tired every thing to resolve it but no solution until now!!

                        now i'm trying to make the VOIP work just between 2 sites but the firewall still block the voip!

                        the ping between 2 sites A and B is good also the transfer of DATA from A => B and B => A!

                        Site A :172.16.1.0
                        ALCATEL PBX A : 172.16.1.200
                        Site B :172.16.2.0
                        ALCATEL PBX B : 172.16.2.200

                        i created those rules,

                        in Server A :

                        Rule 1 :

                        Lan Interface :

                        Action : Pass

                        Geteway : default

                        Rule 2 :

                        Lan Interface :

                        Action : Pass

                        Interface : LAN

                        Protocol : TCP/UDP

                        Source  : Single Hoste Or Aliace (172.16.1.200)

                        Port : from 32000 to 32512

                        –-----------------------------------------------------------

                        in Server B :

                        Rule 1 :

                        Lan Interface :

                        Action : Pass

                        Geteway : default

                        Alcatel support say that the VOIP need just port from 32000 to 32512 but i also tried to autorise all port!! but no résult!

                        in Diagnostics: System logs: Firewall : the firewall still block the voip !!!

                        Act       Time         If            Source                Destination              Proto

                          Have you disabled nat between sites?

                          Use tcpdump at console and see packages flowing

                              With manual outbound nat, there is two ways to do it.
                              either you have rules to these networks with a check box: DO NOt NAT and after that destination any network with normal natting

                              -or-

                              almost similar, but any other destinations has to have nat rule except these 2sites.

                                It's probably not NATing between the sites, it wouldn't by default at least, you would have to setup manual outbound NAT for that.
