Parameter


Description

Index

A unique profile identifier.

Mode

The operational state of the SIP Sig Port:.

  • In Service (default)
  • Out of Service

State

The administrative state of the SIP Signaling Port.

  • Disabled (default)
  • Enabled

IP Interface Group Name

Select from the drop-down list.

IP Address V4

Specifies the The V4 IP address in dotted decimal form (for example 10.11.12.0 24).

IP Address V6

Specifies the The V6 IP address in hexadecimal/colon form (for example, fd00:21:445:128::7880 64).

Port Number

The UDP/TCP port number of SIP Signaling Port (default is 5060), which has a default of 5060.

Recorder

Administrative state of the SIP Signaling Recorder Port. The values are:

  • Disabled (default)
  • Enabled

NoteNOTE: Ensure that the Recorder the Recorder flag is disabled when SIPrec flag is enabled.

SIPrec

Specifies the The administrative state of the SIP Signaling Recorder Port. Enable this flag to use the port for recording using SIPrec Protocol. The options are:

  • Disabled (default)
  • Enabled

Note:

When the SIPrec flag is enabled, ensure the Recorder flag is disabled.

NOTE: The SIPRec feature is controlled by a system-wide SBC license (SBC-SIPREC). If the license is not available, any SIPRec recording returned by a PSX is ignored.

  • When SIPrec flag is enabled, ensure the Recorder flag is disabled.
  • TCP Connect Timeout

    This object parameter indicates the maximum time, in seconds, allowed for 

    Spacevars
    0series
    to establish an outbound TCP connection.

    NoteNOTE: This application level configuration has NO no impact on any IP layer re-transmission of SYN.

    DSCP Value

    DSCP value (0-63) for packets from this SIP Signaling Port.

    NOTE: This DSCP value marks non-HPC calls. Configure the DSCP value in the HPC profile configuration to mark HPC calls. The DSCP value configured in the Hpc Call Profile for HPC calls with UDP as transport can override the DSCP value configured in the SIP signaling port.

    TLS Profile Name

    The name assigned to this Transport Layer Security (TLS) profile. Must be The value range is 1-23 characters.

    Transport Protocols Allowed

    The transport protocols allowed on this signaling port as follows:

    • sip-udp
    • sip-tcp
    • sip-tls-tcp
    • sip-sctp

    NoteNOTE: The SBC supports only UDP towards the recording server.

    SCTP Profile Name

    Specifies the The name of the SCTP profile used for this SIP Signaling Port.

    TCP Keepalive Time

    Specifies the The number of seconds a TCP connection remains idle before TCP Keep-alive probes are sent out. A value of "0" disables this parameter. The value ranges from 0, and 60 to 7200 seconds and the default value is 0. 

    NOTE: Always configure TCP Keepalive Time with a higher value than TCP Keepalive Interval.

    TCP Keepalive IntervalSpecifies the The number of seconds between TCP Keep-alive probes. The value ranges from 60 to 120 seconds and the default value is 60. 
    TCP Keepalive ProbesSpecifies the The maximum number of TCP Keep-alive probes to send until SBC decides that the connection is broken. The value ranges from 1 to 20 and the default value is 2. 
    Mask Portfor Rcb

    This flag is used to fetch fetches the RCB value for a user, . When this flag is enabled, the RCB value is fetched using only the source IP address and not the source port for generating the hashKey.

    • Disabled (default)
    • Enabled

    NoteNOTE: You must disable Disable the flag Mask Ip IP Addressfor RCBRcb flag in order to use this the Mask Portfor Rcb flag. Both flags cannot be enabled at the same time.

    Mask IP Addressfor Rcb

    This flag is used to fetch fetches the RCB value for a user, . When this flag is enabled, the RCB value is fetched using only the usingsource port and not the source IP address for generating hashKey.

    • Disabled (default)
    • Enabled

    Note: The flag Mask Portfor RCB must be disabled to use this NOTE: Disable the Mask Portfor Rcb flag in order to use the Mask IP Addressfor Rcb flag. Both flags cannot be enabled at the same time.

    Enforce AOR Match

    Enable this flag to enforce AOR matching for messages from registered users.

    • Disabled (default)
    • Enabled
    Action

    Use this object flag to specify a clearing action when the SIP Signaling Port goes out-of-service (OOS). Calls can be forcefully cleared or allowed to dry up in out-of-service mode.

    • Dryup – SBC starts the Dry Up Timeout timer indicating the time in minutes the calls are allowed to complete. Once the timer expires, ongoing calls are torn down gracefully.
    • Force (default) – Ongoing calls on the given signaling port are cleared immediately.

    Dry Up Timeout

    Use this parameter to specify the time (in minutes) until which existing calls are allowed to complete in out-of-service mode with dry up action. (range: The value has a range of 1-1440 / and a default = of 60).

    When the Action flag is set to Dryup and SIP Sig Port goes OOS, SBC starts a dry up timer for the configured duration. The SBC exhibits the following behavior when the Dry Up mode Dryup is enabled:

    • Calls: All in-dialog messages are allowed, new INVITE messages are rejected with 503.
    • Registrations: All refresh REGISTER and de-REGISTER messages are allowed, new REGISTER messages are rejected with 503.
    • Out-Of-Dialog (OOD) relay messages: All new OOD messages are rejected with 503. However, in-dialog messages with-in REFER and SUBSCRIBE dialogs are allowed.

    Once the dryup dry up timer expires, the SBC tears down ongoing calls and all ongoing SIP Registrations and non-call related dialogs are cleared internally. The SIP Signaling Port is then moved to OOS state where no SIP messages are admitted.

    NoteNOTE: The Dry Up Timeout flag is displayed when the Action flag is

    selected as

    set to Dryup.

    The Dry Up Timeout flag is configurable

    irrespective

    regardless of the setting of the SIP Signaling Port state.

    Release6.2.1

    Use this parameter to configure This parameter configures the maximum time (0, and 10-3600) in seconds for which transmitted data may remain unacknowledged before TCP forcibly closes the corresponding connection.

    SIP TCP Connection Aging State
    Enable this flag to retain the present behavior. Connections are added to the TCP aging list and are closed if they are idle for more than an hour. When disabled, TCP connections are not added to the aging list and are maintained even if they are idle for more than an hour. Connections will live until intentionally closed or keepalive failures kick in.
    • Disabled
    • Enabled (default)
