Specifies the name of the

Indicates the system name assigned by the user using metadata or userdata.

Note: If a system name was not assigned, this field displays the system name.

Identifies the high-availability (HA) mode for the system.

• haMode1to1 - Is the traditional HA/redundancy model (1:1 scenario) where one active instance is backed up by one standby instance. In 1:1 HA mode mode, the

  s.
• haModeNto1 - Is supported in

  SWe cluster deployments where up to N active

  Spacevars

  instances are backed up by a single standby instance (N:1). In this mode, a 1:1 HA pair of dedicated Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) nodes is deployed to configure and manage SBC nodes. The SBC instances in such deployments have homogeneous configuration. The active OAM node holds the active configuration for the cluster and is responsible for sharing this configuration with the SBC nodes in the cluster.

Local Authentication Enabled

Specifies that Confd CLI user information stored locally can be used for authentication. Options are:

• True (default)
• False

External Authentication Enabled

Specifies that Confd CLI user information stored on a remote Radius Server can be used for authentication. Options are:

• True
• False (default)

Default Account Local Only

Specifies whether the default admin user must be locally authenticated. Options are:

• True
• False (default)

The option can only be set to True when the options that enable/disable local authentication on the SBC generally, Local Authentication Enabled and External Authentication Enabled, are also set to True. If both local and external (RADIUS) authentication are enabled on the SBC then the method for authentication of the default admin user is governed by this option.

Util Monitor Stats Interval

Specifies the time interval for system resource monitoring statistics. The value ranges from 5 to 60 minutes and the default value is 15 minutes.

Note:  

Util Monitors Stats Num of Past Interval

Specifies the number of past intervals of the system resource monitoring statistics to save.

Audit Log State

Specifies the state of the management audit log. The options are:

• Disabled
• Enabled (default)


Dsp Mismatch Action

Specifies the action to take for one of the following DSP mismatch conditions:

1. Mismatch in DSP card installation across any/all slot locations: Cards must match by slot location. For any mismatched slots, DSP capacity is not used when Preserve Redundancy is configured (and card dried up if calls were already in place when the mismatch occurred), or card is left unprotected when Preserve Capacity is configured.
2. Mismatch in DSP card type within a slot location: Card installations must match by type – DSP25 (higher capacity) or DSP20 (lower capacity). Same rules as above apply.

The options are:

• Preserve Redundancy (default): The active instance automatically triggers a graceful dry-up in an attempt to align DSP hardware capabilities. Once the dry-up completes, the active

  Spacevars

  uses protected, matching DSP capacity to preserve redundancy.

Note: During the dry-up period, active calls using the higher capacity DSPs are not protected in the event that a switchover occurs before the dry up completes.

• Preserve Capacity: The active

  Spacevars
  0 product

  continues to use the extra DSP capacity, as needed, assuming appropriate session licenses are in place; partial redundancy is in effect.

Note: If a switchover occurs, calls using the higher capacity DSPs on the active instance are not protected during switchover (that is, partial redundancy).

Cli Set Warning Support

Specifies whether or not to enable warning prompts configured for the Set commands. The options are:

• Disabled
• Enabled (default)

Set this value to True to specify that the SBC should check before it adds a new entry to a configuration table that has an Auto Index column to that the newly assigned Auto Index value does not already exist in that table. The transaction fails if the configuration database (CDB) already uses that Auto Index number. Provisioning can be slow when this check is enabled since the CDB is queried for each item that uses an Auto Index number. Therefore this option should only be set to True when directed by Technical Support. The options are:

• False (default)
• True

If set to True and the SSH keys are populated, SSH users can log into their servers without the need to enter their passwords.

• False (default)
• True

Use to delete a configuration file on an external cloud object store service.

Note: This action command is applicable only for SBC SWe Cloud deployments.

Re Key Confd Encryption Key

Use this command to trigger encryption keys used by the system configuration database to be regenerated.

Note:

Use this command as an admin user of a system (hardware server/SWe Cloud instance) to re-enable an OS account for a specific user. In the pop-up window, specify the following:

• User Name

For more information, refer to the Configure Accounts sub-section of the page Users and Application Management - Application Management.

Use this command to remove an instance from a Redundancy Group.

Note: This action command is applicable only for SBC SWe Cloud deployments.

Use this command to reset the selected system's software upgrade state and clean up all the previous upgrade files. Select one of the following options in the pop-up window:

• Forced - continue reset even in the middle of software upgrade.
• Normal (default) - do not continue reset if in the middle of software upgrade.

Warning: This command should only be run when directed by Ribbon Technical Support.

Remove Saved Config

Use this command to remove a saved configuration file from the system.

• File Name – Specify filename of configuration to remove from the system.

Use this command to retrieve a configuration file from an external cloud object store service to the active configuration.

Note: This action command is applicable only for SBC SWe Cloud deployments.

Use this command to save the current configuration to an external cloud object store service.

Note: This action command is applicable only for SBC SWe Cloud deployments.

Use this command to set the parameters used to access an external cloud object store service.

Note: This action command is applicable only for SBC SWe Cloud deployments.

Use this command to configure the

• Bond Monitoring – Select the bond monitoring type for GRHA mode.

Note that viewing of configuration related to lawful intercept (LI) is restricted to authorized users and therefore output is filtered accordingly. LI-related changes are not present in the output shown to users that lack LI privileges. Similarly, users with only LI privileges can see only LI-related configuration changes.
