This operation is used to configure the IP settings for the Application Solution Module (ASM). The SBC supports two ASM network adapters. Each adapter can be configured with IP settings, such as an IP address and DNS address (Network Adapter 2 is optional).  This is an essential requirement in order to ensure that the Managing the SBC Communication Service becomes operational.


Note

Before configuring the IP settings for the ASM, ensure you have prepared the SBA for deployment. See Preparing for SBA Deployment - First Steps.

SBC 1000. Ethernet Port 2 or 3 does not require IPv4; this port can be configured with IPv4 and/or IPv6.

SBC 2000. Ethernet Port 2, 3, or 4 does not require IPv4; this port can be configured with IPv4 and/or IPv6.


Info

The third Ethernet port on the SBC 1000 is available only if running SBC 1000 v2 hardware. For hardware details, see Ribbon SBC 1000 Hardware Specifications.

Configuring the ASM Network Settings with DHCPv4 Disabled

Info

ASM configuration is also completed under Tasks > Lync™ Survivable Branch Appliance > Setup SBA> ASM Config.

If you wish to statically define the IP address of the ASM, follow these instructions:

...

Note

The IP address assigned by the DHCP server must be on the same subnet as

Spacevars
0company
 
Spacevars
0longproduct
in order for
Spacevars
0company
 
Spacevars
0longproduct
 Communication Service to function; consult with your network administrator to ensure this.

If there is no DHCP server answering requests, a 169 addressing scheme is assigned to the ASM after a timeout period.

Info

ASM configuration is also completed under Tasks > Lync™ Survivable Branch Appliance > Setup SBA> ASM Config.

Enable DHCP:

  1. In the WebUI, click the Settings tab.

  2. In the left navigation pane, go to Application Solution Module > ASM Configuration. For field definitions, see ASM Configuration - Field Definitions.

    The example below shows DHCP disabled for IPv4 on Network Adapter 1 and enabled for IPv4 on Network Adapter 2.
