How to enable Voice over IP on your
network
Do I need to configure Voice over IP? VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a
technology for using the Internet as an interface for telephone communications
To use VoIP, you need to get an account with a VoIP service provider The VoIP
service provider typically provides you with a telephone adapter (TA) that
connects to your network If you do not use your network to make phone calls,
you don't need to change the default settings
The SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) ALG (Application Layer Gateway) feature
allows SIP packets, used by some VOIP service providers, to traverse (go
through) your router's firewall
To configure the router for VoIP:
Administration > Management
1. Log into the browser-based utility (see "How to open the browser-based
utility" on page 14)
2. Click the Administration tab, then click the Management page
3. If your VoIP service uses SIP, select Enabled next to SIP ALG
– OR –
If your VoIP service uses other NAT traversal solutions such as STUN
(Session Traversal Utilities for NAT), TURN (Traversal Using Relay NAT), or
ICE (Interactive Connectivity Establishment), select Disabled (default)
NOTE
You may need to contact your VoIP service provider to determine
the type of NAT traversal configuration they use

What is UPnP? UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows devices connected
