Looking for a good explanation of how this section is to be used correctly. The Help section basically just gives the definition of SIP.
SIP Server Networks: I've got my SIP Provider IP here
SIP Client Networks: I've got my Internet Network here
1) Since there is no Automatic Firewall Check Box, am I to assume that this is to simple handle Outbound SIP Traffic to my SIP Provider?
2) Since there is no Firewall rule or NAT Translation, I would assume that I also need to have a DNAT Rule to allow my SIP Provider to be able to contact my Phone System.
3) External SIP Clients and Softphones - There also use 5060 for SIP and need access to my Phone System to establish a SIP Connection. This also usually needs UDP ports 10000 to 20000 opened.(Yes I know that this isn't recommended)
I'm just trying to wrap my head around how this Network Security - VoIP section fits into the puzzle when allowing traffic from the Provider and the Softphone Clients.
Any help would be great, be I would really appreciate someone that really know this section to respond, that way we're not simply guessing.
Thanks,
