Configuring SIP settings

FortiVoice Gateway supports SIP communications.

To configure SIP settings
  1. Go to System > Advanced Settings > SIP.
  2. Configure the following:

    GUI field

    Description

    Transport Setting

    SIP communication commonly uses TCP or UDP port 5060 and/or 5061. Port 5060 is used for nonencrypted SIP signaling sessions and port 5061 is typically used for SIP sessions encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS).

    Enable the ports as required.

    RTP Setting

    RTP port start

    Enter the starting Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) port that the FortiVoice Gateway will use for phone call sessions. If the unit is behind a firewall, these ports should be open. Ensure there is a reasonable port range so that you have enough ports for all open calls. The default port is 5000.

    RTP port end

    Enter the end RTP port that the FortiVoice Gateway will use for phone call sessions. Ensure there is a reasonable port range so that you have enough ports for all open calls. The default port is 30000.

    RTP timeout

    Enter the amount of time in seconds during an active call that the extension will wait for RTP packets before hanging up the call. 0 means no time limit. The default is 60.

    RTP hold timeout

    Enter the amount of time in seconds that the extension will wait on hold for RTP packets before hanging up the call. 0 means no time limit. The default is 300.

  3. Click Apply.
