Operational, Basic, and Advanced Parameters

Parameter

Configuration Files

sip stun port

aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg

 

 

Description

Port number of the STUN server (also know as Simple Traversal of UDP through NAT)

 

Notes:

 

The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN

 

 

parameters.

 

STUN does not work if the NAT device is symmetric.

 

 

Format

Integer

 

 

Default Value

3478

 

 

Range

0 to 65535 (One (1) or two (2) port numbers separated by a comma)

 

Note:

 

The first is the primary and the second is the backup.

 

 

Example

sip stun port: 3478,3479

 

 

 

SIP TURN Parameters

Parameter

Configuration Files

sip turn ip

aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg

 

 

Description

IP address and/or qualified domain name of the TURN server (also known as Traversal

 

Using Relay NAT).

 

TURN is a protocol that governs the reception of data over a Transmission Control Pro-

 

tocol (TCP) or a UDP connection by a single communications device operating behind

 

a NAT or firewall. A TURN server relays packets from an external IP address towards an

 

internal device only if that internal device has previously sent a packet through the

 

same TURN server to that particular external IP address.

 

The STUN/TURN configuration is only used for media (RTP traffic) that goes through

 

the server - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable Rport if the NAT device

 

does not recognized SIP).

 

The STUN/TURN configuration applies globally to each phone.

 

If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it discovers what type of NAT

 

device is between the phone and the public network. If the NAT device is full cone,

 

restricted cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is sym-

 

metric, the phone uses TURN. If you configure TURN only, the phone uses TURN with

 

the NAT discovery process. TURN is compatible with all types of NAT devices but can be

 

costly since all traffic goes through a media relay (which can be slow, can exchange

 

more messages, and requires the TURN server to allocate bandwidth for calls).

 

Note:

 

The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN

 

parameters.

 

 

Format

IP Address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)

 

 

Default Value

0.0.0.0

 

 

Range

Two (2) IP addresses or domain names separated by a comma

 

Note:

 

The first is the primary and the second is the backup.

 

 

Example

sip turn ip: 10.50.103.12, turnbackup.aastra.com
