What is 'Disable ACL For SIP' in Site Configuration.

Hi,

Does anyone know what the ‘Disable ACL For SIP’ feature is in Site Configuration?
What is the behavior when this feature is enabled?

    Hi Minato, 

    Typically, a SIP ACL (Access Control List) is a security mechanism used to control access to a SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) server or domain.

    If the target SIP traffic requires certain specifications, such has higher UDP ports. putting a tick to "Disable ACL for SIP" will allow the traffic to overcome the ACL restrictions and help in troubleshooting, if required.

    Hope this helps. Cheers

      Hi michaelsaw,.

      Thanks for your reply!

      I understand that when checked, the ACL is disabled.
      I think the default is unchecked, so I assume the ACLs are working, but is there any information anywhere about the ACL rule content?

        Hi Minato, 

        Appreciate your feedback and efforts.
        I believe the KB to address "DIsable ACL for SIP" is not available at the moment.
        Can I check if you are working on SIP related deployment/configuration, at the moment?

        Thank you.
