⚡Quick answer -
Always pull the live IP list from Admin Panel → Network Access → Allow-list IPs.Then create inbound rules for:
• TCP 443 (API & webhooks)
• UDP/TCP 5060-5063 or 5061/TLS (SIP)
• UDP 16384-32768 (RTP media)Use the rule examples below for Linux iptables/ufw, Windows Firewall, AWS, Azure, and GCP.
When should I use this guide?
Follow these steps if:
• your PBX/SBC sits behind a firewall,
• your server receives MyOperator webhooks, or
• You restrict inbound traffic in AWS/Azure/GCP.

1 — Services & ports (at a glance)
Service | Direction | Protocol & Ports | Notes |
API & Webhooks | MyOperator ➜ Your server | TCP 443 | In-call control & event POSTs |
SIP signalling | MyOperator ➜ PBX | UDP/TCP 5060-5063 (5061 TLS) | Disable SIP-ALG |
RTP media | MyOperator ➜ PBX | UDP 16384-32768 | Symmetric RTP recommended |

3 — Get the current IP list
- Sign in → Admin Panel → Network Access → Allow-list IPs.
- Copy all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses shown.
- Export as shell variables for the examples below:
IP_API1=203.0.113.10 # replace with real
IP_SIP1=203.0.113.20
IP_RTP1=203.0.113.30
- Repeat after any region change or status-page notice.

Alt-text: “MyOperator sends API, SIP, and RTP traffic that passes through your firewall to PBX & servers.”

6 — Confirm it worked
Test | Expected result | Where to look |
Webhook test | HTTP 200 in ≤ 5 s | Admin Panel → Network Access → Send Test |
SIP register | 200 OK / OPTIONS from MO | PBX trace |
Live call | Two-way audio, < 2s start | Call ID + packet capture |
[Back to top ⬆️]
7 — Edge cases & best practices
• Disable SIP ALG; it rewrites headers and breaks RTP.
• Preserve UDP 16384-32768; enable symmetric RTP.
• Allow all published IPs (HA).
• Duplicate rules for IPv6 if your network uses it.
• Review IP list quarterly or after status-page alerts.

8 — Troubleshooting matrix
Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
API time-outs | Wrong/old IPs | Refresh list; re-apply TCP 443 rules |
One-way audio | RTP blocked | Open 16384-32768 UDP; symmetric RTP |
Random call drops | Only one MO IP allowed | Add the entire published range |
SIP register flaps | SIP ALG | Disable ALG; switch to TLS 5061 |
IPv6 calls fail | No v6 rules | Mirror allow-list for IPv6 |
