Firewalls and SIP

To enable SIP requests and responses to be exchanged with the SIP proxy at the ITSP, you must
ensure that your firewall allows both SIP and RTP unimpeded access to the Internet.
• Make sure that the following ports are not blocked:
– SIP ports—UDP port 5060 through 5063, which are used for the ITSP line interfaces
– RTP ports—16384 to 16482
• Also disable SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) if this function exists on your firewall.
