Use this section to specify the IP interfaces that the SBC will utilize for telephony, management, and system debugging traffic.
On the SBC main screen, go to Configuration > System Provisioning > Category: Base Provisioning > IP Interface Group > IP Interface. The IP Interface window displays.
IP Interface
This window can display a listing of IP Interfaces for each Address Context, for each IP Interface Group or for all existing Address Contexts and IP Interface Groups. Use the drop-down menus at the top of the page to select the Address Contexts and/or IP Interface Groups of interest.
IP Interface Main Fields
To edit an IP Interface in the list, click the radio button next to the IP Interface name of interest.
IP Interface Highlight
The Edit Selected IP Interface window is displayed below.
IP Interface Edit Window
Make the required changes and click Save at the right hand bottom of the panel to save the changes made.
To create a new IP Interface, click New IP Interface tab on the IP Interface List panel.
New IP Interface Button
The Create New IP Interface window is displayed.

The following fields are displayed:
IP Interface Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Name | The IP interface name. |
Mode | The operational state of the IP Interface:
When setting |
State | The administrative state of the IP Interface:
|
CE Name | The name of the computing element (1 - 255 characters) that hosts the port used by the IP interface. |
Port Name | The physical port name (example: pkt0, ..., pkt3) used by this IP interface. |
IP Address | The IP address of the Interface. |
Prefix | The IP subnet prefix of this Interface. |
Alt IP Address | Specifies alternative (secondary) IP address for the configured packet IP interface. The alternative IP address is optional.
Modify an alternative IP address only after changing the Packet IP interface to disabled state. |
Alt Media IP Address | Use this parameter to specify up to 14 additional IPv4 and/or IPv6 media IP addresses on this IP interface. Any combination of IPv4 and IPv6 is allowed. The following rules apply when configuring alternate media IP addresses:
|
Alt Prefix | The alternative IP subnet prefix of this Interface. It should be between 0-128. |
Action | The method by which calls are torn down when operational state goes to out of service:
|
Dryup Timeout | The dry-up timeout in minutes (e.g. the number of minutes to wait before taking the interface out of service). This is started at the point where the command to make the interface out of service is issued. This is only applicable for Media traffic. If there is no media traffic on the interface, then the interface is immediately taken out of service. Range: 0-1440 (minutes). Default = 60. Note
To do a dry-up for an interface used only for Signaling, perform a dry-up procedure of the SIP Sig Port associated to the interface. |
Bw Contingency | The percentage of maximum bandwidth that is reserved for contingency (that is, non-media). Value must be 0-100 percent. |
Vlan Tag | Assign a VLAN ID to each IP Interface which will include one or more SUBINTERFACEs. When the parent IP Interface is created, this parameter is assigned the NULL (0) tag. When the IP Interface is enabled for VLAN TAG STATE, in order to provision a SUBINTERFACE, this parameter must already be set to a value in the 2-4094 range or the enable command will fail. |
Bandwidth | Specifies the maximum amount of bandwidth allowed in units of bytes per second. Must be 0-118750000 as follows: |
