I have a Security Engineer looking through the logs but he can not see why RTP is being dropped. We have had this same issue trying to get the siemens soft phone to work. My firewall has inbound NAT setup could that be causing the drop in the RTP packets because the firewall is seeing a different IP address. What rule should be setup in the Checkpoint firewall?
I have had the Security engineer looking into this for 2 days now but he is not sure of the resolution.

Double check your logs bud, cos one way VOIP traffic normally means a firewall is dropping one side of the comms.
You may be allowing the control traffic through to set up the call, ie SIP or H323, but the actual media, the RTP is being allowed through out your firewall, but the return traffic is not
being allowed.
Your logs willgive an indication of what rule is being hit and also what the drop reason is.
