Microsoft Teams continues to evolve to deliver an optimal user experience.
\nAs part of this continuous improvement, a significant update to the UDP signaling ports used for calls<\/strong> and meetings<\/strong> will be deployed.
\nThis update aims to improve efficiency and simplify port management. <\/p>\n

Upcoming changes<\/h4>\n

Microsoft Teams currently uses the dynamic UDP<\/strong> source ports 49152-65535<\/strong> for calls and meetings.
\nThese ports are used for various features such as mute, hold, add participants and feedback.
\nFromOctober 2024<\/strong>, Teams will switch to UDP<\/strong> source ports 50070-50089<\/strong>, while maintaining the UDP<\/strong> destination port at 3478<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Why the change?<\/h4>\n

The aim of this change is to reduce the number of ports used, simplifying management and enabling DSCP Quality of Service (QoS) markers to be applied to this traffic.
\nBy reducing the port range, Microsoft Teams improves the efficiency and security of your communications. <\/p>\n

When will it happen?<\/h4>\n

The general availability of this update is scheduled for early October 2024<\/strong><\/span>.
\nDeployment will start at the beginning of the month and should be completed by the end of the first week of October. <\/p>\n

What you need to do to get ready<\/h4>\n

Administrators should allow UDP source ports 50070-50089 to destination ports 3478 at the specified Microsoft Teams IP addresses (52.112.0.0\/14, 52.122.0.0\/15, 2603:1063::\/38).
\nSince the new range is a smaller subset of the existing ranges, no changes should be necessary for administrators who already allow UDP signaling. <\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h4>\n

This update to UDP signaling ports is an important step in improving the efficiency and management of calls and meetings in Microsoft Teams.
\nPreparing for this change will help ensure a smooth transition and a better user experience for your business. <\/p>\n
