Voice over IP (VoIP) is a general term for placing telephone calls over data

and T.38 (International Telecommunication Union publication T.38) protocol to
set up calls, and to transmit fax data respectively.

The ports you see in NET SatisFAXtion are “virtual” ports. They do not
correspond with the physical ports on the media gateway. Outbound ports are
allocated lowest port number to highest (ascending), and inbound ports are
allocated from highest to lowest (descending).
