Port settings for AT&T WiFi calling on secure networks

I'm answering my own question - this is something I've been researching for a while and finally have found the correct answer. Posting it here because I bet there are others who are trying to figure out the same thing. Hope this helps!


Q: What is needed for WiFi Calling to work on a secure network?


A: Requirements for functioning on Wi-Fi

  • VoIP or Wi-Fi Calling Must Be Allowed on the Wi-Fi Network
  • IPSEC must be allowed
  • Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) set to 1500
  • Appropriate ports must be open

o Port: 500 (Protocol: UDP)

Service or Application Name: Wi-Fi Calling

o Port: 4500 (Protocol: UDP)

Service or Application Name: Wi-Fi Calling


Wi-Fi Network Throughput is another thing to consider:

  • Once a device connected to one access point must it maintain at least 12kbps, and up to 72kbps.
  • If throughput dips below 12 kbps the call can drop.


Wi-Fi Calling Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN)

Wi-Fi Calling expected to be able to hit and traverse these FQDNs:
