with the following statement:
static (inside,outside)udp interface 5060 192.168.1.10 5060 netmask
255.255.255.255
....you use your pix outside interface as the IP that external hosts will
connect to for this particular UDP port only. This is usually used where a
small business only has one IP from the ISP (that being the
external/outside interface IP).
Since you have 5 or 6 other IP's to use, if you want to use them for a
static NAT for this host, you could do that. It's mostly a personal
prefernce.
