Why does your UCaaS provider want you to disable SIP in your Session Border Controller firewall?

Diane Balogh profile image April 5, 2024 | 2 min read

Have you ever wondered why your unified communications as a service (UCaaS) provider is asking you to disable SIP in your session border controller (SBC) firewall? After all, SBCs are designed to protect and regulate the flow of internet protocol (IP) communication, ensuring smooth voice and multimedia sessions between different networks or endpoints. To better understand this, let’s delve into some times when disabling SIP is actually a good thing.

Traffic jams

First, it’s essential to recognize that SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG) can sometimes interfere with SIP traffic. Although SIP ALG aims to facilitate SIP communication across Network Address Translation (NAT) devices, it frequently meddles with SIP signaling by rewriting SIP packet headings. This interference causes confusion and can lead to communication problems, such as dropped calls or one-way audio, negatively affecting user experience.

Inconsistent implementation

Additionally, not all vendors apply SIP ALG the same way. This can cause compatibility concerns with certain SIP-based applications or devices. These inconsistencies may result in unforeseen complications and difficulty diagnosing problems.

Security concerns

Moreover, some SIP ALG implementations present security risks in network environments, opening doors for malicious attackers looking to carry out denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, circumvent security measures or intercept and manipulate SIP traffic. Resolving such issues often demands involvement from network device manufacturers, whose support may prove insufficient due to faulty or improperly documented implementations.

Diagnosing issues

Disabling SIP ALG simplifies troubleshooting efforts, saving valuable time spent figuring out the source of the problem among a complex web of variables. Another reason to turn off SIP ALG is its potential conflict with SIP firewalls. Coexisting SIP ALG and SIP firewalls can generate unpredictable behaviors, challenging effective security measure deployment. Ultimately, weighing the pros and cons highlights the importance of prioritizing security and ease of management over potential benefits provided by SIP ALG.

Ooma Enterprise can help

By partnering with a trusted UCaaS provider like Ooma Enterprise, businesses can leverage advanced communication tools without worrying about the hassles involved in managing on-premises SBC hardware or software. With cloud-based services offering centralized management, scalability and adaptability, organizations can focus on their operations instead of handling network infrastructure details.

It’s important to note that some industries are mandated by strict regulations governing data storage and handling and may be required to have on-site SBC deployments even when using cloud-based solutions. Ooma Enterprise can help these businesses find a solution.
