In this section:
Similar to other types of LI, the primary configuration object for specifying PC 2.0 LI parameters is the call data channel (CDC) which includes the configuration of mediation server objects. CDC configuration must be completed by an authorized LI user (the calea user) using the EMS user interface or the SBC CLI.
Diameter configuration to support the X2 call data interface is mandatory for PC 2.0 LI. The SBC supports a single Diameter node for all Diameter functions. Therefore Diameter node configuration must be completed by a user with admin privileges and the node is shared if Diameter is used for more than one purpose. When handling PC 2.0 LI, the SBC does not use the IP interface group specified within the Diameter node configuration for X2 traffic, it uses the IP interface group specified in the CDC configuration for X2 (signaling) traffic. The dumpPDU
flag within Diameter node configuration is not applicable when Diameter is used for LI X2 traffic.
The remaining Diameter objects (Diameter peers and realm routes) are configured within the CDC object. When created in the CDC, these Diameter objects are specific to use for PC 2.0 LI.
The optional IPsec configuration must be completed by a user with admin privileges if either the X2 or X3 interface is to be secured with IPsec.
The following code block identifies the CDC parameters required for PC 2.0 LI deployments.

The following table describes the CDC parameters required for PC 2.0 LI deployments.
Parameters Required in PC 2.0 LI Deployments
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
diamNode | Specifies the name assigned to the SBC Diameter node configuration (up to 23 characters). SBC configuration includes a single Diameter node to define the SBC side of the Diameter interface. If Diameter is used for more than one purpose on the SBC then the Diameter node is shared. Note: Diameter node configuration must be completed on the SBC by a user with |
diameterPeer | Diameter peer configuration under the CDC object, specifically for the mediation server (DF) side of the Diameter X2 signaling interface for PC 2.0 LI deployments. A maximum of 16 Diameter peers can be configured within the CDC.
|
diameterRealmRoute | Diameter realm route configuration under the CDC object, specifically for the mediation server (DF) side of the Diameter X2 signaling interface for PC 2.0 LI deployments. A maximum of 16 Diameter realm routes can be configured within the CDC.
|
embedTapIdInCccId | Specifies whether the SBC embeds the Tap ID in the CCCID (Call Content Connection Identifier) it sends with X2 and X3 messages to the DF. The Tap ID comes from X1 surveillance data. The options are:
|
ipInterfaceGroupName | Specifies the name of the IP interface group to send X2 signaling data to the mediation server (DF). |
liPolDipForRegdOodMsg | Specifies whether the SBC should send a policy request to the PSX, when the SBC receives a registered user's out-of-dialog messages, to determine whether interception is required.
|
mediaIpInterfaceGroupName | Specifies the name of the IP interface group to send X3 call content to the mediation server (DF). |
mediationServer | Mediation server configuration to specify parameters for X2 and X3 destinations. Up to 16 mediation servers can be configured in the CDC for a PC 2.0 LI deployment. <mediation server name> – Specifies the name of the mediation server configuration object. The following media (UDP transport only) and signaling parameters can be configured for each PC 2.0 LI mediation server.
|
rtcpInterception | Specifies whether to intercept RTCP information. Options are:
|
vendorId | The vendor name of the LI server. The values supported for PC 2.0 LI:
|
The following series of examples show the basic tasks required to configure PC 2.0 LI.
Logged in as a user with admin privileges, configure the Diameter node that represents the SBC side of the X2 Diameter interface.
% set addressContext default diamNode DN ipInterfaceGroupName LIG1 originRealm pc20.test primaryOriginHost origin.pc20.test commit
For more information on Diameter node configuration, refer to Diameter Node - CLI or Address Context - Diam Node (EMA).
During configuration of the CDC object you specify IP interface groups for the X2 and X3 interfaces. IP interface groups and the IP interfaces they contain are SBC configuration objects that define networking parameters. IP interface groups must be created by an admin user prior to configuring the CDC object so the names are available to include in CDC configuration. Refer to IP Interface Group - CLI or System Provisioning - IP Interface Group for more information.
Logged in as the calea user, configure CDC parameters for PC 2.0 LI including its subordinate objects: Diameter peers, Diameter realm routes, and mediation servers.

Logged in as a user with admin privileges, configure IPsec if needed. This optional configuration is needed if you require a secure connection between the SBC and the mediation server. The SBC supports IPsec over TCP for signaling interception (X2 interface) and IPsec over UDP for media interception (X3 interface). When configuring IPsec, the SPD entry must include:
localIdentity ipAddress
– The SBC interface group IP address specified in the CDC.
remoteIdentity ipAddress
– The mediation server IP address specified in the CDC.
