Scenarios

Decision Matrix

On the left side you can choose the needs and conditions of your customer. Then you will se which solutions are possible or recommended.

Some information to understand the conditions in the table:

Reverse Proxy
Needed if you want connect with external phones (eg. Smartphones or HomeOffices) to your internal PBX or Application Platform. The requirement is an official domain. If you do not have one, you have to rent one.
Local DNS server
All applications can work with DNS Names. You have to configure some internal subdomains with the private ip addresses of your gateways
Example PBX: pbx.domanin.tld => 192.168.2.10
Example Ap Platform: ap.domanin.tld => 192.168.2.11
External DNS server
In combination with the reverse proxy you can offer some subdomains from your external domainname with the external IP or the NAT-IP of your Reverse Proxy
Example PBX: pbx.domanin.tld => 1.2.3.4
Example Ap Platform: ap.domanin.tld => 1.2.3.4
