In order to properly deploy Sonus CloudLink, the Sonus SBC Edge VM needs to secure the transaction with Office 365. To do so, CCE uses a Public Certificate to encrypt the data. This Public certificate must be purchases from a Public Certificate Authority. Some Public Certificates are not pre-loaded in Windows Server. If that is the case, you must import the Root and Intermediate Certificate provided by the Public Certificate Authority.

This page describes how to load Root and Intermediate Certificate for the CCE Edge Public Certificate in CloudLink wizard.

Requirement

Sonus SBC Edge and SbcComms version 6.1.3.

Base64 version of the Root and Intermediate Certificate Authority (readable in a notepad).

Issue

If your Public Certificate Authority is not pre-loaded in Windows Server, you will get the following error when running the action "Prepare CCE":

Additional Information: Got an exception deploying CCE: Certificate Chain is broken. Root and Intermediate Certificate needs to be imported on ASM Operating System: A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority.
