Managing the Application Level Gateway for SIP Sessions
The Application Level Gateway (ALG) facilitates multimedia sessions such as voice over IP
(VoIP) sessions that use the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) across the firewall and provides
support for multiple SIP clients. ALG support for SIP is disabled by default.
To enable ALG for SIP:
1. Select Security from the main menu and Firewall Rules from the submenu. The LAN WAN
Rules screen displays.
2. Click the Advanced tab. The Advanced screen displays.
3. Select the Enable SIP ALG checkbox.
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
Note: Some protocols (such as FTP or RSTP) create two sessions per connection
which should be considered when configuring Session Limiting.
