Configuring the STUN Server
A STUN server provides information on request to subscribers on a private network. This infor-
mation includes the IP address and port outside their private network that is viewed as the
source of their data. This information is entered in the requests, instead of the actual private IP
address/port.
Note: If you encounter problems with unilateral call connections, enabling the
RTP might help.
Important: Each port forwarding constitutes a security risk. For this reason
we recommend you use this functionality as little as possible.
You can configure the STUN server as follows:
Separately for the provider or PBX
