An IP Access Control List (ACL) is a list of source IP addresses or CIDR ranges Vobiz will accept SIP traffic from on a given outbound trunk. Use it instead of (or alongside) SIP credentials when your PBX has a stable, public IP.

The IP ACL list

IP Access Control List page with a search field, Add IP ACL button, a list showing one ACL named test with ID and CIDR 1.2.3.4/32 and Status Active, and an IP ACL Details panel on the right with Description, IP ACL ID, Status badge, CIDR/IP Addresses chip (1.2.3.4/32), and Metadata showing Created and Last Updated timestamps
ColumnMeaning
NameFriendly label (e.g. Mumbai DC, Asterisk prod).
IDImmutable UUID — quote in support tickets.
CIDRThe IP range(s). 1.2.3.4/32 means just that one IP; 203.0.113.0/24 means a whole /24 block.
StatusActive accepts traffic; Inactive rejects everything from those IPs without removing the rule.
Click any card to load its details on the right.

Create an IP ACL

Click + Add IP ACL to open the side panel.
Create IP Access Control List modal with Name field set to placeholder IP_ACL, IP Address List required field with placeholder 192.0.2.0/24 and hint Enter IP addresses or CIDR notation - Press Enter or comma to add each entry, Active toggle on, and Cancel and orange Create IP ACL buttons
FieldRequiredNotes
NameFriendly identifier. Defaults to IP_ACL if left blank.
IP Address ListType each IP or CIDR and press Enter (or ,) to commit. Examples: 1.2.3.4 (single IP, auto‑expanded to /32), 203.0.113.0/24 (whole /24 block).
ActiveDefaults on. Toggle off to provision the ACL but reject traffic.
Click Create IP ACL.

Use the ACL on a trunk

Once created:
  1. Open an Outbound Trunk.
  2. Edit the trunk and pick the new ACL from the IP Access Control List dropdown.
  3. Save.
From now on, SIP INVITEs from any IP in the ACL are accepted without further auth.

Tips

  • Use /32 for single hosts. A bare IP like 1.2.3.4 is normalised to 1.2.3.4/32 — but being explicit makes it obvious to anyone reading the list later.
  • Stack multiple entries on one ACL. Easier than juggling several ACLs — one per environment is the sweet spot.
  • Toggle, don’t delete. When a PBX is temporarily offline, set the ACL to Inactive instead of removing entries — your config returns intact when the box comes back.
