Port Forwarding

Port Forwarding

The following table outlines the port forwarding information in the router that maps public IP addresses to internal IP addresses. Port forwarding must be configured to utilize features such as remote phones, SIP Providers, remote administration and branch office. IPitomy port forwarding requirements are specified below. Note you should only forward ports you intend to use.

Remote Phones 

SIP + RTP

Web Access to PBX (do not forward without changing password) 

HTTP/HTTPS

Branch Office Networking 

IAX2

Text Messaging 

XMPP

Tech Support Access 

SSH - you should always forward this before you contact Technical Support

Application	Port	Protocol	Transport Protocol	LAN IP Address
Remote Management	80	HTTP	TCP	IP Address of PBX
Secure Remote Management	443	HTTPS	TCP	IP Address of PBX
SSH (IPitomy Support)	22	SSH	TCP	IP Address of PBX
SIP Control	5060	SIP	UDP + TCP	IP Address of PBX
SIP RTP (Voice)	10,000 - 20,000	RTP	UDP	IP Address of PBX

Note that when you are configuring a port forward in your router, that many routers let you specify an external and internal port.  The internal port numbers that are forwarded to the PBX must match the numbers fromt the table above.  However, for SSH, HTTP, or HTTPS you may use any external port number that is available in your router.
