Still can not see your problem in your description above.
Does a single, VoIP call use multiple addresses during its lifetime?
I would think not. Once the call is put up, it will use whatever
address it was assigned until the call is torn down.
Or, at least that was the way they used to work.
Do you mean by "my software" something you invented yourself?
Or do you mean "the software I am using"? What software?
