Microsoft proscribed the functionality and security model for the SBA. Sonus is responsible for the method used to reach the Microsoft recommendation.
The Sonus ASM operates in either of two modes:
- In Appliance mode, the SBA utilizes Sonus' solution to guarantee security and reliability. Sonus fully support the ASM (Hardware and Software)
- In Server mode, the SBA is customized by the customer with a solution not tested or approved by Sonus. Customization can be for functionality or security purposes. Sonus doesn’t know the impact of this customization, therefore can only support the Hardware components.
By default, all ASMs are shipped in Appliance mode. Any customization will turn the ASM into Server mode. The only way to return into appliance mode is to re-initialize the ASM using the on-board capability via the WebUI.
