i basically wasn't seeing any packets from our data center, reaching our
clients Phone System,
the phone system couldn't register to our registration server

the phone system was sending a register request, my server would receive
and respond to it, but the phone system wasn't getting the packet, i was
seeing it leave our edge device in the data center....
