The IP protocol to use for sending and receiving SIP messages between SBC and the Border Element Server. This value is fixed at UDP.

Port Number 

The SIP Server Port number used for sending and receiving SIP messages between SBC and the Border Element Server.

Teams Connection Type

The Teams connection type used for the network. Valid selections:

  • Standalone Direct Connection
  • Local Media Optimization

Signaling/Media Source IP (Microsoft Teams Direct Routing)

Click the drop-down arrow to select the external (Internet-facing) IP address of the Microsoft Teams Direct Routing server that handles routing of messages for signaling and media.

Static Host FQDN/IP[;port] 

The SBC inserts the configured FQDN in the requests and responses sent toward Microsoft Teams. Microsoft Teams can then reach the SBC successfully based on the configured FQDN.

Outbound NAT Traversal

Allows the SBC to be placed behind a NAT device, and uses the IP of the NAT device for all outgoing messages. If this field is set to Enable, the Public IP address field configuration is required. Valid selections:

Enable: Network Address Translation is used for the NAT device's Public IP address.

Disable: Network Address Translation address translation is not used.

NOTE: This field is required when the SBC interface has a private IP and the NAT device is using a public IP. For details on configuring an SBC behind the NAT, refer to Configuring the SBC Edge for NAT Traversal.

Public IP Address

Specifies the Public IP address of the NAT device. The SBC uses this IP as the source IP for all the outgoing messages. This field is required only when Outbound NAT Traversal is configured to Enable.

Apply ACL

Specifies whether an ACL (Access Control List) is applied to the Microsoft Teams connection. An ACL provides security to an SBC using a Public IP.

Valid selection:

True: Applies the ACL

False: Does not apply the ACL. 

For details on configuring an ACL to be applied to an SBC, refer to Managing Access Control Lists.
