This object allows you Use the GW Sig Port window to configure a signaling ports port for gateway-to-gateway (GW to GW) call signaling.

...

GW signaling port limitations:

The gateway-to-gateway signaling is a protocol that transports call signaling messages between SBC (and GSX) instances over a TCP connection and requires that an external PSX is part of the network. The SBC supports gateway-to-gateway signaling on all platforms, including virtualized SBC SWe deployments.

The parameters to define the GW signaling port differ based on your type of the SBC platform. For cloud-based deployments of SBC SWe (I-SBC or D-SBC), the parameters include IP Var so that the IP address for the port can be specified using a metavariable rather than a static IP address. For other SBC platforms,  use the IP Address V4 or V6 parameter to enter a specific IP address.

The SBC supports a single GW signaling port at a time. The GW signaling port must be defined within

...

the default address context and

...

the

...

defaultSigZone zone, and it must be assigned an index value of 1.

Parameter

Description

Index

Set the index for gateway signaling port to 1.

Ip Interface Group Name

The

Specify the name of the IP interface group used by this

Signaling Port

signaling port.

Ip Address

Specifies

Specify the IP

Address of the Gateway Signal Listen Port. This is V4 and V6 IP
address in dotted decimal form (for example 128.127.50.224). Default is 0.0.0.0.

address for the gateway signaling listening port in IPV4 or IPV6 format.

This is a required parameter visible on hardware systems and SBC SWe systems that do not use metavariables.

Note: For cloud-based I-SBC, D-SBC SBC SWe deployments, this parameter is not visible.

Port Number

The logical port number of the TCP port to use for this connection. Must be 1-65535, default is 2569.

Role

The main role of the signaling port:
• primary(default)—the port that makes gateway signal link connection requests to other

Spacevars
0product
, using its IP address as the local address for listening.
• secondary—an alternate port that is used for listening only and cannot be used to establish new gateway signal links.

When no primary port exists, connection requests to other 
Spacevars
0product
cannot be issued and calls which require them are disconnected.
When a secondary port is configured to be primary, the previous primary is automatically made secondary.

Mode

The operational state of the Gateway signaling service:
• inService(default)—the signaling port listens for incoming gateway signal link connection requests.
• outofService—the signal port is not available for incoming gateway signal link connection requests and thus cannot be used to create a new gateway signal links to other

Spacevars
0product
.

State

The administrative state of this gateway signaling port:
• disabled—Not active
• enabled—Active

...

IP Var

Specify the metavariable to use to assign an IP address to the gateway signaling port in an I-SBC or D-SBC deployment. .

Note: This parameter is visible for only I-SBC and D-SBC deployments in the SBC SWe.
