Reserved Ports
By default, the phone communicates through UDP ports in the 50000 - 50249 range for video and voice control. The
phone uses only a small number of these ports during a call. The exact number depends on the number of participants
in the call, the protocol used, and the number of ports required for the type of call: video or voice.
It is not applicable to CP960 phones.

Guidelines for Determining the Range of Port Numbers
To minimize the number of UDP and TCP ports that are available for communication, you can restrict the ports range.
The following tables identify the number of ports required per connection by protocol and the type of call.
Call Type Number of Required Ports
Video 4 UDP ports
Voice 2 UDP ports
Each additional video participant requires 4 UDP ports.
Each additional audio participant requires 2 UDP ports.
Make sure at least 200 TCP ports and 200 UDP ports are reserved for the phones. Use the following information as a
guide when determining the range of port numbers.
