SIP Protocol Details
Supported Network and Transport Protocols
DIDWW supports SIP signaling over UDP, TCP, and TLS transports. Communication can be established using the following ports: 5060 for UDP/TCP and 5061 for TLS. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported as network protocols for signaling and media.
Signaling Endpoints
Calls can be sent to any of our load balancers. Each load balancer operates as a redundant cluster with multiple nodes that uses the same IP address.

DNS SRV
DNS SRV acts as a failover mechanism that is used to reroute a call to a backup data center in the event of failure. We recommend enabling this feature if it is supported by your equipment.

BGP Anycast
DIDWW provides a BGP anycast signaling endpoint at any.out.didww.com (185.238.172.4). The anycast prefix 185.238.172.0/24 is announced from all DIDWW Points of Presence, and the BGP protocol automatically determines the best path based on customer AS connectivity.
Warning
Sometimes, the optimal BGP path may not necessarily offer the best latency or quality. It is advised to test the anycast endpoint within your environment prior to implementing it in a production setting.
Note
It is recommended to use UDP transport within any.out.didww.com endpoint as this technology provides better results for UDP services.
RTP and RTCP information
- DIDWW uses the following Subnet and Ports for RTP traffic:
46.19.208.0/21
185.238.172.0/22
RTP port range is 16383 - 32767. RTP port + 1 is used for RTCP sending/receiving.
Encryption
Our systems supports TLS as a secure transport for SIP signaling and SRTP as a media encryption mechanism. All three SRTP key negotiation mechanisms are supported - SDES, DTLS and ZRTP.
Warning
The SRTP media encryption is disabled by default. Please contact our sales team sales@didww.com to enable SRTP support for your account.

P-Charge-Info Header
Customers can append additional technical information using the header described at https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-york-p-charge-info-08. Our system will store P-Charge-Info value to the CDR, later this data could be used for billing purposes with CDR streaming tool. Header value format is optional.
SIP Registration
SIP Registration mechanism is not used and not required by this service. We are responding on REGISTER requests for compatibility reasons, but location information is not used within this service.
SIP Options
Our load balancer automatically repond on incoming OPTIONS requests. We recommend to use this mechanism to monitor connectivity with out system.
