TCP and UDP ports
9600 Series IP Deskphones use different protocols, such as TCP, TLS, and UDP to communicate
with other equipment in the network. Part of this communication identifies which TCP or UDP ports
each piece of equipment uses to support each protocol and each task within the protocol.
Depending on your network, you need to know what ports or ranges are used in the operation of
the phones.
