Troubleshooting a Grandstream UCM SIP trunk is crucial for ensuring smooth communication. If the trunk shows as Unreachable or there's no audio, it could be due to several factors including codec mismatch, NAT settings, and SIP ALG on your router.
Check Trunk Status in UCM Dashboard
Step 1: Log in to UCM Dashboard
Use your credentials to log into the Grandstream UCM administration interface.
Step 2: Navigate to Trunk Status
Go to the menu where you can view the status of all configured trunks. This is usually under a tab labeled "Trunk", "SIP Trunks", or similar.
Step 3: Check Trunk Status
Check if the trunk is marked as "Registered". If it shows "Unreachable" or has other error messages, there's a connection issue.

Step 4: Verify SIP Credentials
Ensure the SIP credentials in UCM match those in your Internetport customer portal. You can find these at
https://portal.internetport.com -> Services -> My Services -> [SIP Trunk] -> Configuration Details.Step 5: Verify SIP Server Configuration
The SIP server should be set to
sip.internetport.sewith ports5060 UDP / 5061 TLS.
Enable SIP Debug Log in UCM
Step 6: Enable Debug Logs
Navigate to logging settings and enable SIP debug logs. This will provide more information about the issue.
One-way Audio or No Audio - RTP Codec Mismatch
Step 7: Check Configured Codecs
Ensure the codecs configured in UCM are supported by Internetport. Supported codecs are
G.711 a-law (PCMA),G.711 u-law (PCMU),G.722, andG.729.Step 8: Adjust Codec Priority
If there's a codec mismatch, you may need to adjust the priority of the codecs used in UCM.
NAT Settings - External IP and Local NAT
Step 9: Check NAT Settings
Ensure NAT settings in UCM are correctly configured. If using a router that performs NAT, make sure it has the correct port forwarding.
Step 10: Use STUN Server
Use Internetport's STUN server
stun.internetport.seto help with NAT traversal.
SIP ALG on Router - Turn it Off
Step 11: Check SIP ALG Settings
Check if SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway) is enabled on your router. If so, try disabling it as it can sometimes cause issues with SIP communication.
