ALG
SIP ALG is Application layer gateway. If the user has an IP phone (SIP) or VoIP
gateway (SIP) behind the ADSL router, the SIP ALG can help VoIP packet
passthrough the router (NAT enabled).
NOTE
:
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol, RFC3261) is the protocol of choice for
most VoIP (Voice over IP) phones to initiate communication. This ALG is
only valid for SIP protocol running UDP port 5060.
