Port settings (firewall)
In some installations, you may need to adjust the port settings before the Business
Communications Manager can work with other devices.
For details about setting port ranges, refer to the information under the following headings:
• “Using firewalls: adding PortRanges” on page 129
• “Modifying PortRanges” on page 131
• “Port settings for legacy networks” on page 132
Using firewalls: adding PortRanges
Firewalls can interfere with communications between the Business Communications Manager and
another device. The port settings must be properly configured for VoIP communications to
function properly. Using the instructions provided with your firewall, ensure that communications
using the ports specified for VoIP are allowed.
A Nortel Networks IP telephone uses ports between 51000 and 51200 to communicate with the
Business Communications Manager.
The Business Communications Manager, by default, uses ports 28000 to 28255 to transmit VoIP
packets.
