All IP phones use RTP for media and there is not restriction in the RTP<BR>
standard to use only 16384 to 32767 range for media traffic. It is only<BR>
recommendation from Cisco to use 16384 to 32767 range for media traffic.<BR>

As I explained above it is not the function of underlying protocol, and<BR>
should be able to be changed somewhere.<BR>

Normally 1 to 2 ports are needed for one voice channel that is one phone<BR>
call and Cisco-7960 can handle at most 12 calls at a time that means<BR>
maximum 12 to 24 ports are used so this range of 98 ports are more than<BR>
enough.<BR>
