How to disable SIP ALG ?
0 recommendations  | 11 views
To disable SIP ALG, the steps depend on your router/firewall model. Here are instructions for the most common devices. If you tell me your router/firewall model, I’ll give the exact commands.
 

✅ Disable SIP ALG on Popular Devices
 

1. FortiGate Firewall
You previously mentioned you use a FortiGate 60E, so here are the correct steps:
GUI
  1. Go to System > Feature Visibility
  2. Enable VoIP (if not visible already)
  3. Then go to Policy & Objects > VoIP
  4. Set SIP ALG = Disabled
CLI
Run these commands:
config system settings
    set default-voip-alg-mode kernel-helper-based
    set sip-nat-trace disable
    set sip-expectation disabled
    set sip-heuristic disable
end

config system session-helper
    show
Find the SIP helper entry (usually ID 13) and then:
config system session-helper
    delete 13
end
Then disable the helper in session inspection:
config firewall policy
edit <your-policy-id>
    set voip-profile "default"
end
 

2. MikroTik Router
/ip firewall service-port
set sip disabled=yes
 

3. TP-Link Router
Often found under:
Advanced > NAT Forwarding > ALG > Disable SIP ALG
 

4. Netgear Router
Advanced > Setup > WAN Setup > Disable SIP ALG
 

5. Asus Router
Advanced Settings > WAN > NAT Passthrough > SIP Passthrough = Disable
 

6. Cisco IOS
no ip nat service sip udp port 5060
 

7. Ubiquiti UniFi (UDM/USG)
Unifi Controller:
Settings → Firewall → Advanced
Disable:
  • SIP ALG
  • SIP Transformations
