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.Documentation Index

The IP ACL list

| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Name | Friendly label (e.g. Mumbai DC, Asterisk prod). |
| ID | Immutable UUID — quote in support tickets. |
| CIDR | The IP range(s). 1.2.3.4/32 means just that one IP; 203.0.113.0/24 means a whole /24 block. |
| Status | Active accepts traffic; Inactive rejects everything from those IPs without removing the rule. |

Use the ACL on a trunk
Once created:- Open an Outbound Trunk.
- Edit the trunk and pick the new ACL from the IP Access Control List dropdown.
- Save.
Tips
- Use
/32for single hosts. A bare IP like1.2.3.4is normalised to1.2.3.4/32— 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
Inactiveinstead of removing entries — your config returns intact when the box comes back.
