The SBC Core permits modification of the majority of provisioning attributes which influence the operational behavior of the SBC without impacting service in a production environment. A subset of provisioning attributes listed below cannot be changed without affecting service. Ribbon recommends modifying these attributes only during a maintenance window.
The following table details SBC Core configuration attributes which cannot be changed without first disabling operational state or setting a service to Out of Service (OOS) mode.

The SBC 7.2.x release supports FIPS-140-2 and the 10.1.3 release supports FIPS-140-3. FIPS-140-2 is not supported in 10.1.3 and later releases and gets automatically converted to FIPS-140-3 as part of the upgrade.
To verify the current status of FIPS certification, contact the Global Support Assistance Center:

Removing a license bundle is potentially service-affecting. If the removed license bundle contains unexpired licenses for features currently in use, the removal of the license bundle will cause those features to no longer work.
