Yesterday I upgraded from FW 4.38 to 4.60 on USG20W-VPN.  Ever since doing so, I can no longer make or receive WiFi calls on iPhone.

The logs show Source Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:4500 and my destination Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1028 "ACCESS BLOCK".

I did not look at this UDP port in logs on earlier firmware, but according to documents the following Ports must be able to pass:


These ports need to be open for wi-fi calling: 143/tcp, 500/udp, and 4500/udp

How do I open these ports so I can make and receive WiFi calls on iPhone.  I have no coverage for Verizon, and I don't want to roll back to 4.38 (still in alternate FW space).

Any suggestions?  I don't want to assign a Fixed IP address on my iPhone either.

    The destination Address was the WAN Public IP. Forgot to mention this......

    Did you face this issue with default configuration?
    Disable firewall, the issue disappear? you may try to test with other phone see if face the same issue.
