When integrating Pexip Infinity with Microsoft Lync and Skype for Business*, the following ports have to be allowed through any firewalls which carry traffic for the involved devices:

Direction Purpose Protocol Source Destination
Between the Lync/SfB FEP and the Conferencing Node (bidirectional) SIP signaling TCP <any> 5061
From Lync/SfB clients towards the Conferencing Nodes RTP/RTCP media UDP <any> 40000–49999
From Lync/SfB clients towards the Conferencing Nodes HTTP conference avatar TCP <any> 80
From the Conferencing Nodes towards a Lync/SfB Edge server (AV Edge Interface) RTP/RTCP/RDP media UDP / TCP 40000–49999 50000–59999
From the Lync/SfB Edge server (AV Edge Interface) towards Conferencing Nodes RTP/RTCP/RDP media UDP / TCP 50000–59999 40000–49999
From the Conferencing Nodes towards Lync/SfB clients or Lync/SfB servers RTP/RTCP/RDP media UDP / TCP 40000–49999 <any>
From the Conferencing Nodes towards the TURN server RTP/RTCP media UDP 40000–49999 3478
From the Conferencing Nodes towards the Lync/SfB Web Conferencing service PSOM (PowerPoint presentation from Lync/SfB) TCP (TLS) 55000–65535 443 / 8057 †
From the Conferencing Nodes towards the Lync/SfB Front End server or Edge server HTTPS (PowerPoint presentation from Lync/SfB) TCP (TLS) 55000–65535 443
† typically 443 for Web Conferencing Edge and 8057 for a Lync/SfB Front End server / FEP
