I have a PIX firewall, and need to configure it to allow TalkBroadband to work. What should I do?
From the Cisco PIX command reference: fixup protocol mgcp If a user wishes to use MGCP, they will usually need to configure at least two fixup protocol commands: one for the port on which the gateway receives commands, and one for the port on which the Call Agent receives commands. Normally, a Call Agent sends commands to the default MGCP port for gateways, 2427, and a gateway sends commands to the default MGCP port for Call Agents, 2727. The following example adds fixup support for Call Agents and gateways that use the default ports: fixup protocol mgcp 2427 fixup protocol mgcp 2727 The no fixup protocol mgcp command removes the MGCP fixup configuration. The show fixup protocol mgcp command displays the configured MGCP fixups. Please refer to the mgcp command for information on the show mgcp command.
