Nope, I don't think dialpad.com uses the H.323 protocol. I may be wrong, but
I know I'm using dialpad.com without a H.323 proxy.

Not a problem, the only thing you have to do to make dialpad work is to
redirect a few ports to one of your local machines, and it works fine on
that 1 machine.  Here's the ports to redirect:
51210 tcp
51200 udp
51201 udp

Since it's easy for me to find, here's the commands I was using when I
had ipfw/natd setup:
redirect_port   tcp     172.20.172.3:51210      51210
redirect_port   udp     172.20.172.3:51200      51200
redirect_port   udp     172.20.172.3:51201      51201

this was in my /etc/natd.conf file. Of course, replace the 172.20.172.3 with
whatever the IP# is for the machine you want dialpad to work on.

I just switched to a ipf/ipnat setup, so I have those commands handy too,
here
they are from my /etc/ipnat.conf:
rdr xl0 208.0.0.0/8 port 51210 -> 172.20.172.3 port 51210 tcp
rdr xl0 208.0.0.0/8 port 51200 -> 172.20.172.3 port 51200 udp
rdr xl0 208.0.0.0/8 port 51201 -> 172.20.172.3 port 51201 udp

I am using 208.0.0.0/8 to make sure it works with my dynamic IP#

Hope this is what you needed!
