Secure SIP Requirements

When connecting to your phone system, Fonolo only supports using Secure SIP (e.g., Transport=TLS) over port TCP/5061. This connectivity option offers an extra layer of security and must be configured for customers connecting to Fonolo using the Cloud-Based SIP integration option.

The Fonolo service will utilize secure SIP that provides encryption on data in transit, utilizing TLS with AES-256 encryption (supporting the ciphers listed below).

It will require a valid certificate signed by a known certificate authority publisher; self-signed certificates will be rejected.

An optional IPSec VPN is available as an add-on to the service – for more details, see Connecting via an IPSec VPN.
