The EMS uses the EMS CALEA user role for all LI configuration operations from and to the SBC Configurator; the admin user for communicating over netconf to the SBC. The EMS creates the SBC CALEA user credentials automatically when a SBC (including the SBC Configurator) an SBC registers to the EMS. Cloud SBC instances are registered dynamically in the EMS.

This node is used to create the configuration. The SBC Configurator nodes are displayed based on the version selected. Only unlocked SBC Configurator nodes are listed.

Enter a name for the configuration in the Configuration Name field. The SBC configuration name contain only letters, numbers, dashes (-), apostrophes ('), underscores (_), colons (:) and spaces.

Note

The cluster ID is set as the default name for the first configuration. You can modify the name. The name must be unique.

The subsequent configurations are named with a combination of cluster name and some unique identifying information. The default name varies based on how the configuration is created.

The LI Call Data Channel must be configured on  the the S-SBC to indicate that it supports interception. For LI, the CDC configuration is performed using the CDC Configuration Manager through the EMS. You can Create create CDC information only as EMS calea when logged in as the EMS CALEA user from the EMS CDC configuration window.

Prerequisites

Enable calea user. For information, refer to "Enabling Lawful Intercept on EMS Standalone" topic in EMS documentation.
