Figure 269 SIP ALG Example

24.5.3 SIP Signaling Session Timeout

Most SIP clients have an "expire" mechanism indicating the lifetime of signaling sessions.
The SIP user agent sends registration packets to the SIP server periodically and keeps the
session alive in the ZyWALL.
If the SIP client does not have this mechanism and makes no calls during the ZyWALL SIP
timeout default (60 minutes), the ZyWALL SIP ALG drops any incoming calls after the
timeout period.

24.5.4 SIP Audio Session Timeout

If no voice packets go through the SIP ALG before the timeout period (default 5 minutes)
expires, the SIP ALG does not drop the call but blocks all voice traffic and deletes the audio
session. You cannot hear anything and you will need to make a new call to continue your
conversation.

24.6 ALG Screen

Click ADVANCED > ALG to open the ALG screen. Use the ALG screen to turn individual
ALGs off or on and set the SIP timeout.
If the ZyWALL provides an ALG for a service, you must enable the ALG in
order to perform bandwidth management on that service's traffic.
