Explanation

Cisco Expressway uses a firewall-traversal architecture where Expressway-C (Core), located inside the enterprise network, always initiates the outbound connection to Expressway-E (Edge), located in the DMZ. This design means the internal firewall only needs to permit outbound traffic from Expressway-C to Expressway-E - no inbound holes are required through the internal firewall. Once Expressway-C establishes this persistent outbound TCP connection (the traversal zone), Expressway-E can use it bidirectionally to forward calls and media between external endpoints and internal resources. Internal endpoints register to Expressway-C (not Expressway-E), and Expressway-E never initiates connections inward.
