In this section:


Use this object to specify parameters associated with various enhanced services and features for this SIP trunk group.

Info

CLI commands are case-sensitive and must be entered exactly as shown in this guide. Objects and profiles with names that differ only in case are considered distinct objects.

For example, the following trunk groups are three distinct trunk group entities: trunkgroup1, TRUNKGROUP1, TrunkGroup1. It is strongly recommended to avoid such naming conventions, and to also adopt a standard naming convention when initially defining your configuration.



IMPORTANT

Ribbon recommends using the Transparency Profile to configure transparency on the SBC Core for new deployments, as well as applying additional transparency configurations to existing deployments. Do not use IP Signaling Profile flags in these scenarios because the flags will be retired in upcoming releases.

Refer to the SBC SIP Transparency Implementation Guide for additional information.

Note

As a best practice, always use UPPERCASE for trunk group names.

Command Parameters

ParametersLength/RangeDescription
adaptiveLearningN/A

Adaptive NAT pinhole learning parameters.

  • maxTcpPinholeTimer – Defines upper limit of the pinhole timeout for TCP in seconds. (range: 60-65535 / default = 600).
  • maxUdpPinholeTimer – Defines the upper limit of the pinhole timeout for UDP in seconds.  (range: 60-65535 / default = 180). 
  • reLearningInterval – Interval in hours at which the pinhole timeout is relearned. (range: 1-240 / default = 24). 
  • state– Enables/disables the adaptive nat pinhole timeout learning process for devices behind NAT. 
    • disabled (default) 
    • enabled
iceSourceAddressFilterPriorityN/A
Enable this parameter for the SBC to prioritize the processing of STUN packets matching the source addresses received in the candidate lines of the ICE SDP received from the peer during the STUN connectivity check phase.

  • serverReflexivePrefixLength – The length (in bits) of the prefix for server reflexive IP address (range: 0-32 / default = 16).

  • state – Administrative state of iceSourceAddressFilterPriority.

    • disabled
    • enabled (default)
Note

The filtering mechanism is applicable to the following RTP address types:

    • IPV4 Server Reflexive Address (for this address type, filtering is based on the provisioned Server Reflexive Prefix Length)
    • IPV4 Relay Address
    • IPV6 Relay Address
    • IPv6 Host Address


Note
When ICE Source Address Filtering is enabled, STUN packets received during the connectivity check phase that do not match the addresses sent by the peer are still processed, but at a reduced rate. This allows the SBC to learn of the presence of Peer Reflexive Candidates through STUN. This has no impact during a stable call when only packets received from the learned source address are processed and the remaining are dropped by default.

iceSupport N/A

This parameter indicates the type of ICE method used for STUN packet check.

  • none (default)

  • iceWebrtc – Select this attribute for WebRTC Gateway interworking. For example, using the Ribbon WRTC Gateway, or in situations when the SBC is presented with an ICE SDP from a WebRTC-enabled Endpoint. When configured for this mode, the SBC acts as a generic ICE-Lite agent.

  • iceLync – Select this attribute when interworking with a Microsoft Lync 2010 or 2013 client.

    • iceKeepaliveTimer – Set Keep-Alive timer value, in seconds, for MS-Lync ICE to prevent network loss of STUN message exchanges. (range: 1-60 / default = 15)

  • iceFull – Select this attribute when interworking with a full ICE client requiring the generation of a STUN connectivity check by the SBC in response to its own STUN connectivity check. 

    • iceKeepaliveTimer – Set Keep-Alive timer value, in seconds, for full-ICE to prevent network loss of STUN message exchanges. (range: 1-60 / default = 15)
Note

For MS Lync ICE (iceLync setting), keep-alive messages are sent only to RTP port.

Note

Ribbon recommends to avoid configuring both Media Nat and ICE Support on the same Trunk Group because these configurations are independent mechanisms for solving NAT traversal issues. Because of of this, these configurations should not coexist on the same Trunk Group.

Refer to Configuring SBC for WRTC for ICE-Lite configuration best practices.

iceTcpRoleN/A

Use this flag to specify if SBC initiates the TCP connection for ICE Lync.

  • active – Use this option for the SBC to initiate the TCP connection when connected to internal-facing trunk groups where the peer is not behind the NAT. Also, use this option when working with certain Unified Communication (UC) servers such as Acano which expect the peer to initiate the TCP connection. This is only supported when there are no NATs between the SBC and the UC server.
  • passive (default) – The SBC waits for the peer to initiate the TCP connection. Use this option when working directly with Lync endpoints.
Note

The iceSupport parameter must be set to IceLync to configure this flag.

Refer to Configuring SBC and LYNC in Media Environment for configuration details.

iceTrickleN/A

Trickle ICE is a mechanism that allows ICE agents to shorten session establishment delays by making the candidate gathering and connectivity checking phases of ICE non-blocking and by issuing them in parallel. This allows starting the call setup procedure to the SBC before all candidates have been gathered by the user agent so that additional candidates can be sent to the SBC in subsequent INFO and/or offer and answer messages.

Use this flag to enable Trickle ICE support for this trunk group.

  • disabled (default)
  • enabled


Before using this feature in production, fully verify the functionality in the lab.

 learnNatForRtpOnlyN/A
Enable flag to learn media NAT from the first RTP packet only. If disabled, media NAT is learned from any first packet received. For egress trunk groups, this flag is applicable only if dynamicLRBT flag is disabled. If dynamicLRBT is enabled, NAPT learning occurs on arrival of RTP packet until the call is connected, at which point learnNatForRtpOnly applies even for egress trunk groups.

  • disabled (default) 

  • enabled

Note

The flag mediaNat must be enabled to use this flag.

 

Note
Do not enable learnNatForRtpOnly for SIP trunk groups with iceSupport enabled because it does not apply to ICE NAT traversal.
mediaNat N/A

Use this flag to specify whether or not NAT/NAPT support is required for media. 

  • disabled (default) 
  • enabled

Note

Ribbon recommends to avoid configuring both Media Nat and ICE Support on the same Trunk Group because these configurations are independent mechanisms for solving NAT traversal issues. Because of of this, these configurations should not coexist on the same Trunk Group.

Note
The SBC Core does not support NAT traversal for IPv6 calls. Ensure NAT is disabled in pure IPv6 call scenarios.

disableMediaNatIfSameMediaAndSigIpN/A

Enable this flag to disable Media NAT if Media and Signaling IP addresses are identical.

  • disabled (default)
  • enabled
outboundTcpKeepaliveTimer0-32767

The NAT outbound keepalive timer (in seconds) for SIP over TCP for SIP outbound-supported UAs (RFC 5626).

(default = 240)

outboundUdpKeepaliveTimer0-32767

The NAT outbound keepalive timer (in seconds) for SIP over UDP for SIP outbound-supported UAs (RFC 5626).

(default = 60)

qualifiedPrefix N/ASet of IP network media and signaling prefixes that an address must match for NAT handling. If there are no entries in qualifiedPrefix table, the endpoint is treated as existing behind a NAT device. As a result, the SBC considers requests from all IP addresses to be behind a NAT device.
  • ipAddress – IPv4 address. 
  • prefixLength – Value from 0-128 specifying the number of bits representing the network part of ipAddress.
secureMediaNatPrefix 0-32

Use this parameter to match up to 'N' bits of the network IPv4 address obtained from signaling. If set to "0", feature is disabled, and no match of network IP address will occur.

(default = 0)

signalingNat N/A
Use this flag to indicate whether or not NAT/NAPT support is required for signaling. 
  • disabled (default)
  • enabled

Note
The SBC Core does not support NAT traversal for IPv6 calls. Ensure NAT is disabled in pure IPv6 call scenarios.

tcpKeepaliveTimer15-65535

This NAT TCP keep-alive timer sets the registration refresh rate (in seconds) for SIP over TCP.

(default = 240)

 udpKeepaliveTimer 15-65535

This NAT UDP keep-alive timer sets the registration refresh rate (in seconds) for SIP over UDP.

(default = 60)
