Not answering your question, but could you either explain the theory of
why one needs a proxy in front of a PBX, or point to something that
explains this?  I am not entirely up to speed on SIP practices, but it
seems like there is a culture of having lots of proxies far more than I
would have thought necessary.  A parallel puzzling web notion would be
that you can't use a browser to look at a website without a local squid
and a remove nginx front end.  I suspect this is simply a lack of
understanding on my part.
