Ekiga VoIP client and SIPGate

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

Ekiga is a VoIP client for GNOME. I recently registered with SIPGate.co.uk as I am planning to have a go at setting up Asterisk sometime in the near future. Sadly it wasn’t a well documented process and after searching Google, SIPGate’s website and Ubuntu Forums for help I found some tips on debugging Ekiga. Armed with this knowledge ekiga --debug=[1-6] I managed to discover the required ports for successful NAT traversal. They are as follows:

  • 5060 - 5100/udp
  • 8000 - 8012/udp
  • 5004/udp
  • 10000/udp
  • 3478 - 3497/udp
  • 3478 - 3497/tcp
  • 1720/udp
  • 30000 - 30010/tcp

I am sure they could be refined and there maybe some that are unnecessary but it Works or Me™, use them at your own risk.
