Indicates the system name assigned by the user.

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

Two modes for managing the HA/Redundancy of

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

  s. The Centralized mode is preferred for deployments where the scale/sessions requirements are low.
• Distributed - Use this mode for Is supported in

  Spacevars

  SWe Cloud deployments where up to N active

  Spacevars

  instances are backed up by a single standby instance (N:1). In this mode, each node is configured separately, and the configuration on active and standby instances are is not synchronized. The instances in such deployments also have homogeneous configuration. The microservices based Distributed-

  Spacevars

  deployment is ideal for Communications Service Providers (CSPs) with large scale/sessions requirements. The Distributed mode is preferred in such deployments, as the lifecycle of the instances (instance spin-off, initial configuration,  delta configuration, and instance termination) are In Distributed mode the initial configuration and delta configuration is managed by the EMS/VNFM and Configurator.

Location

Specifies the physical location of the

Contact

Specifies the contact information of for the

Local Authentication Enabled

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

• True (default)
• False

External Authentication Enabled

Specifies the confd 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 saved by of the system resource monitoring statisticsto 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 mismatch conditions:

1. Mismatch in DSP card installation across any/all slot locations: Cards must match by slot location. For any mismatched slotslots, 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 s lot 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 active instance automatically triggers a graceful dry-up in an attempt to align DSP hardware capabilities. Once the dry-up completes, the Active active

  Spacevars

  uses the protected, matching DSP capacity to preserve redundancy.

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

• Preserve Capacity: The Active active

  Spacevars

  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 Active the active instance are not protected during switchover (i.e. that is, partial redundancy).

Cli Set Warning Support

Specifies whether or not to enable warning prompts configured for the Set commands or not. 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

Re Key Confd Encryption Key

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

Note: Sonus recommends backing up current encrypted parameters in plaintextplain text, if possible.  Sonus further recommends performing a full configuration backup immediately after this activity has successfully completed.

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. The CLI equivalent of this action command is request system admin <system name> reenableOsAccount userName <user name>.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.
