Changing Codec Port Numbers
Reasons for adjusting the port setting on your codec include:
·
Creating a path through gateways and firewalls.
·
Another IP device is already using a codec’s port number.
·
More than one studio codec is in use and each codec requires a different port number.

Audio Port Settings for Tieline Session Data and Sessionless IP Calls
The codec supports sessionless IP streaming, whereby the codec does not send Tieline session
data when attempting to connect. When using this mode you need to configure the "send" audio
port (codec port at the remote end of the link to which you are sending audio) and "return" audio port
(port used by the local codec to receive audio from the remote codec).
It is also possible to configure the send and return audio ports for a codec using Tieline session data
to establish IP connections. This may be required because some firewalls require symmetric port
configuration.
