RouterYour router should be set up to perform NAT (Network Address Translation) andact as a DHCP server (or have a standalone DHCP server somewhere on yournetwork). These features are normally enabled by default on most routers.An IP address will be allocated to the phone automatically when you plug theEthernet cable from your phone into your router.It is our strong recommendation to minimise the number of firewall rules requiredon the router. This will reduce the CPU load on the router and also future proof thesite from future additions to the service.This can be simply implemented by two rules which allow all (UDP and TCP) trafficto and from 154.51.129.0 and 217.135.162.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 - this is a/24 network.You should also disable any Application-level Gateway (ALG) on your router.The system can support both static and dynamic IP addresses.2.4.
