In this section:

Deployment Scenarios

Two basic deployment scenarios exist for the SBC Software Edition routing and policy management.

SBC SWe running exclusively on a server.
SBC SWe co-hosted with other virtualized applications on a server.

Routing and Policy Management

The two basic configurations for routing and policy management are:

Centralized PSX

For information on how to configure SBC to use an external PSX, refer Configuring SBC for External PSX.

Embedded Routing Engine (ERE)

The ERE provides less routing and policy management functionality and is intended for smaller networks with no complex routing needs.

SBC with ERE
