Translating SIP sessions to multiple destination ports

Translating SIP sessions to multiple destination ports

You can use a load balance virtual IP to translate SIP session destination ports to a range of destination ports. In this example the destination port is translated from 5060 to the range 50601 to 50603. This configuration can be used if your SIP server is configured to receive SIP traffic on multiple ports.

 

Example translating SIP traffic to multiple destination ports

SIP Server

IP: 192.168.10.20

 

IP Phone

Virtual Server

IP Address

172.20.120.20

TCP Port 5060

 

 

To translated SIP sessions to multiple destination ports

1. Add the load balance virtual IP.

This virtual IP forwards traffic received at the port1 interface for IP address 172.20.120.20 and destination port

5060 to the SIP server at IP address 192.168.10.20 with destination port 5061.

config firewall vip

edit “sip_port_ldbl_vip” set type load-balance set portforward enable set protocol tcp

set extip 172.20.120.20 set extport 5060

set extintf “port1”

set mappedip 192.168.10.20 set mappedport 50601-50603

set comment “Translate SIP destination port range” end

 

2. Add a security policy that includes the virtual IP and VoIP profile.

config firewall policy edit 1

set srcintf “port1” set dstintf “port2” set srcaddr “all”

set dstaddr “sip_port_ldbl_vip” set action accept

set schedule “always” set service “ANY”

set utm-status enable

set voip-profile default

set comments “Translate SIP destination port” end
