Visual First Call Setup is not available for SBC Cloud environments.

The Visual First Call Setup configuration wizard is an EMA-based tool that guides you through the procedure of in configuring the SBC for processing calls in an experimental setup.Use the Visual First Call Setup tool to configure the SBC for processing low volume of calls. The most typical use case is testing a new feature of the SBC in an experimental/laboratory set up, to process calls in a laboratory (non-production) environment under light to moderate levels of traffic. Sonus recommends using other standard procedures This wizard is not intended for configuring SBCs the SBC for production deployments.

Info
titleNote

The The Visual First Call Setup tool  tool is a guided procedure - it maintains the a predefined order of actions that needs to be performedfrom start to finish. You are not allowed to skip one or more actions (forward or backward)cannot skip an action or go back to a previous action.

 

Info
titleNote
While using this tool, try not to navigate Avoid navigating to other EMA objects or windows , as while using this tool to avoid a disrupted workflow results resulting in configuration that are an out-of synchronization. If you want to navigate to -sync configuration. Before navigating to the other EMA objects, ensure that complete and save the configuration element on which you are presently working is completely configured and saved.
  • You may navigate to other EMA objects and configure objects that are independent of objects on the active window.
    • You must avoid creating any object through EMA and CLI . Once you save the Visual First Call Setup configuration, you can then navigate to and configure other EMA or CLI objects, but avoid creating objects that are related to the active windowconfiguration in your saved configuration.
    Info
    titleNote - Limitation

    The Visual First Call Setup offers limited functionality in terms of  wizard does not include real-time update updates of the configuration status of the objects. If you configure an object using this tool, and then delete the configuration through EMA or CLI, the tool still reflects the configuration status as "configured" , and displays the circular “Configuration Complete” green button icon adjacent to the object instead of redrather than the expected red icon which indicates no configuration.

    Special Case - Fresh Installation/Upgrade

    If the SBC is not configured using the Visual First Call Setup tool, as in case of a freshly installed/upgraded SBC:

    • When viewed as diagram, instead of a green circle, a red circle is displayed beside each configuration element. For more information, see Provision the SBC for Basic SIP Peering.

    • Except Customer Network > PBX and Carrier Network > Carrier, all other configuration elements remain inactive; this is to ensure that the sequence of the configuration is maintained.

    • When viewed as table, the table is displayed only with fields but no values.

      Info
      titleNote - Error Messages

      While configuring various elements of the Visual First Call Setup tool, you may encounter error messages of two types:

      • Error messages that results from unacceptable values entered against the fields. These error messages are generated on the front-end of the EMA web application, and the Javascript code running on your browser displays such messages promptly.

      • Error messages you receive from the back-end of the EMA web application. A small web server runs on the SBC, which serves the EMA application over http/https protocol. Sometimes, the code running on the web server finds values that you enter against the fields as unacceptable due to constraints placed by the back-end logic, even if the values are within the bounds imposed by Sonus. For example, if you set the field Port Name as pkt0 (displayed on the Edit Media IP Interface window) for both Internal (PBX) as well as External (Carrier) side of the setup, an error message is generated from the back-end and displayed on your browser.
