I'd have to guess (no direct experience) the sip transformation
means the firewall will track the sip/rtp port negotiation
process, and automatically open the negotiated rtp ports
for audio. 

I'd also have to guess the function will only work under
some specific conditions as the sonicwall engineering process
seems to only involve limited conditional testing before
releasing code to the public.
