A correctly configured firewall is essential for a successful calling deployment. We require ports for signaling, media, network connectivity, and local gateway and because Webex Calling is a global service, we recommend that you leave all of the ports listed below open.

Not all firewall configurations need ports to be open but if you're running inside-to-outside rules, you should open ports to allow the protocols required for service out. As long as you deploy NAT, define reasonable binding periods, and avoid manipulating SIP on the NAT device, you shouldn't need to open ports inbound on the firewall.


If a router or firewall is SIP Aware, meaning it has SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG) or something similar enabled, we recommend that you turn off this functionality to maintain correct operation of service. See the relevant manufacturer's documentation for information about how to disable SIP ALG on specific devices.

We recommend that you allow both domains through your firewall.
