Hi all,

When we first set up our CM 6.3 a few years back, we set up a small, physical SBC at the same time. (Now it's virtualized SBC/EMS.) Reviewing my notes, it looks like we used ports 35000-36000 for RTP/RTCP SRTP/STRCP connection between the SBC and CM/SM. No big deal, worked fine.

In the mean time, we've grown our Avaya footprint and set up multiple new G450 & G430 gateways in a few other buildings. When I check the ip-network-regions that correspond to those new buildings, the UDP Port Min/Max fields are set with 2048-3329. Swell, it all works great.

However, when I look at my original ip-network-region, I have an entry of 35000-36000 in the UDP Port Min/Max. Everything is still working fine, EXCEPT I can't make any changes in the ip-network-region because it tells me "Region is used by a g450 media gateway; UDP port range must be 1280 or greater."

I'm thinking I should change those UDP port values to the default 2048-3329 (a 1282 port range), but I don't want to mess up anything in my SBC. What do you all think?

Thank you as always!

So Nick, if you came across this in one of your IP-network-regions, and all your other IP-network-regions were 2048-3329, would you consider this an error, and change it? Again, everything is working OK, but I can't change the name of this IP-network-region because CM considers the current port entries invalid.
