Configuring VoIP Access Rules

By default, stateful packet inspection on the firewall allows all communication from the LAN to the Internet and blocks all traffic to the LAN from the Internet. Additional network access rules can be defined to extend or override the default access rules.

If you are defining VoIP access for client to use a VoIP service provider from the WAN, you configure network access rules between source and destination interface or zones to enable clients behind the firewall to send and receive VoIP calls.

Although custom rules can be created that allow inbound IP traffic, the firewall does not disable protection from Denial of Service attacks, such as the SYN Flood and Ping of Death attacks.

You must select Bandwidth Management on NETWORK | System > Interfaces for the WAN interface before you can configure bandwidth management for network access rules.
