The EdgeView contains the EdgeView Service Control Center (SCC). The EdgeView SCC can launch an SBC Edge instance's UI in your internet browser, which allows you to configure, operate, and monitor the instance if the remote UI connection is currently active. For example, you can configure the EdgeView Agent (EVAgent) logging and view the current connection and remote UI status of the EdgeView connection.

Note

To enable this feature for the SBC Edge, you require the EdgeView 16.0.1 Release or later.

With the EdgeView SCC enabled, the SBC Edge sends a SIP signaling group (SG) and port status report and the most recent, highest severity alarm to the EdgeView. The SIP SG and port status report includes information about the SIP SG and port's unique ID, administrative status, and real-time status.

Note

If a timeout results in the runtime status not being retrieved, then the SBC Edge reports the real-time status as Unknown.

Requirements

To enable the EdgeView SCC, you must configure the EdgeView panel (see the following procedure) according to your SBC Edge:

  • SBC 1000/2000 - Configure the EdgeView IP address or FQDN.
  • SBC SWe Lite - Configure the EdgeView IP address or FQDN and the EdgeView Management ID.

    Caution

    When you enter the EdgeView Management ID, you must insert a colon every two characters (00:00:00). Otherwise, the SBC SWe Lite cannot connect to the EdgeView.
