Panasonic KX-TGP500 1.1.10.3 Global Address Detection

1. In the Web user interface, click the [Network] tab, click [Static NAPT Settings], and then enter the

router’s global IP address in [Global IP Address].

2. Select [Yes] for [Enable Global IP Address Usage per Line] for each line.

•Select [No] to disable the setting for the line.

3. Click the [VoIP] tab, click [SIP Settings [Line 1]–[Line 8]], and then enter the router’s source port numbers

(forwarded port numbers, which are the same as the numbers of the WAN and LAN ports set on the router)

in [Source Port].

If the unit is connected to a network that uses a NAT router and a private IP address is assigned to each

terminal on the network, you must configure the RTP function for the unit and router so that the units can

perform voice transmission between each other using a peer-to-peer connection.

However, if your phone system supports the SBC (Session Border Controller) function, it is not necessary to

configure these settings.

For details about the SBC function, consult your phone system dealer.

For details about Web user interface programming, see 3.4.5 Static NAPT Settings.

1. In the Web user interface, click the [Network] tab, click [Static NAPT Settings], and then enter the

router’s global IP address in [Global IP Address].

2. In [External RTP Port], enter the router’s source port numbers (forwarded port numbers).

Note

•Specify a unique value for each of the 3 ports.

When configuring the port forwarding function, specify the router’s reception port number as the unit’s port

number.

Port forwarding should be configured for the ports specified in [Source Port] (® see SIP Setup in this section)

and [External RTP Port] (® see RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) Setup in this section).

Set the same port number for the source port and destination port, and set the unit’s private IP address as the

destination address.

Because the unit’s private IP address will have to be set in the router’s port forwarding configuration again if

it is changed, set a static IP address to the unit, or configure the router so that the same IP address is always

assigned to the unit if IP addresses are assigned by a DHCP server.

For details about how to configure the router, refer to the documentation for the router.

Because the port forwarding settings depend on the user’s network environment, they cannot be programmed

using configuration files.

1.1.10.3 Global Address Detection

The global IP address is a unique IP address that is assigned to a particular terminal. If the global IP address

assigned to the firewall or the router is changed, the unit will not be able to communicate.

If the global IP addresses of these terminals are assigned by a DHCP server in the higher level network where

they are connected, the IP address may differ each time the unit transmits data.

The Global Address Detection feature detects the current global IP address and, if the IP address has changed,

sets it automatically to the SIP server. There are 2 methods, using STUN (Simple Traversal of UDP through
