Configuring Traversal Client Zones

H.323 protocol

Determines which of the two firewall traversal
protocols (Assent or H.460.18) to use for calls
to the traversal server. (See

Firewall Traversal

Protocols

for more information.)

H.323 port

Specifies the port on the traversal server to be
used for H.323 calls to and from the local VCS.

For firewall traversal to work via H.323,
the traversal server must have a
traversal server zone configured on it to

represent this VCS, using this same port
number.

SIP transport

Determines which transport type will be used
for SIP calls to and from the traversal server.

For firewall traversal to work via SIP, the
traversal server must have a traversal
server zone configured on it to

represent this VCS, using this same transport
type and port number.

SIP port

Specifies the port on the traversal server to be
used for SIP calls to and from the VCS.

Retry interval

Specifies the interval in seconds with which a
failed attempt to establish a connection to the
traversal server should be retried.

Peer 1 to Peer 6 address

The IP Address or FQDN of the traversal server.
If the traversal server is a TANDBERG Border
Controller, this should include all its Alternates.
If the traversal server is a VCS cluster, this
includes all of its Peers. See the section

Neighboring the Local VCS to a Cluster

for

more information.

H.323 mode

Determines whether H.323 calls will be allowed
to and from the traversal server.

SIP mode

Determines whether SIP calls will be allowed to
and from the traversal server.

For full details on how traversal client
zones and traversal server zones work
together to achieve firewall traversal,

see

Firewall Traversal

.

Authentication username

Traversal clients must always authenticate
with traversal servers by providing their
authentication username and password.
The client’s authentication username is
shown here for reference, to make it easier
to configure the corresponding zone on the
traversal server.
The authentication username is a system-wide
setting that is set via

VCS Configuration >

Authentication > Configuration

.

NTP

must also be configured in order

for traversal zones to work.
