Leave this field blank.

7If the FortiFone can successfully connect to and register with the FortiGate Voice unit the Status of the FortiFone changes to Registered.

If Status does not change to Registered you should verify the Register Name or re- enter the Password. You should also confirm that the Domain Server and Proxy Server IP addresses are correct.

To configure the remote FortiGate unit in NAT mode

The remote FortiGate unit in NAT mode must be configured to allow SIP sessions between the remote users on the remote network and the FortiGate Voice external interface. To do this you need to:

Add an internal to external firewall policy that allows SIP sessions so that the remote users can start SIP sessions with the FortiGate Voice unit

Add a virtual IP and an external to internal firewall policy that allows SIP sessions from the FortiGate Voice wan1 interface to connect to the phones in the remote network

For higher security, you could configure IPSec tunneling between the branch office network and the remote network and send SIP traffic over the IPSec tunnel.

FortiGate Voice IVR configuration

By default, when callers call into the FortiGate Voice PBX from a remote system such as the PSTN the call is picked up by the PBX system which plays a default message asking the caller to dial the extension number that they want to reach or to dial 0 for assistance. If the caller dials 0 they can use the number keys on their phone to spell out the First Name or Last Name of an extension to connect with that extension.

You can use the following procedure to add a custom welcome message.
