Info

These are

sample ACLs and should be customized for your specific deployment.

One use-case for access controls lists is to isolate management traffic on the SBC 2000 to accomplish the following: the SBC WebUI is available only through certain ports on the SBC (i.e., Admin port) and the SBC WebUI is not accessible on those ports.

In a hosted or multi-tenant environment, the SBC is managed by a service provider and is shared with multiple end-customers. The ADMIN port is used solely for managing the SBC by the service provider. In order to configure this ACL, you must do the following:

Create ACLs that describe the type of traffic that should be accepted or denied.

Bind the ACLs to the ports for the designated purpose.

Sample ACL "usertraffic"

This ACL allows packets related to VoIP application only and bound to all user ports. This example is for SBC 2000 and should be customized for your specific requirements.

ID	Source IP/Mask	Dest IP Mask	Protocol	Source port	Destination port	Action	Notes
1	2001:db8:7:1::7/64	ANY	ANY	ANY	5060	ACCEPT	Accepts all traffic from Lync server to the SBC's SIP port 5060 or ASM's SIP port 5060.
2	2001:db8:7:1::7/64	ANY	UDP	53	ANY	ACCEPT	Accepts DNS traffic from the DNS server 2001:db8:7:1::7/64.
3	ANY	ANY	UDP	ANY	16000-17000	ACCEPT	Accepts all UDP traffic carrying RTP and RTCP payload from other devices to the SBC. The port range should be same as the range configured under Media System Configuration. See

Configuring the Media System

.
4	2001:db8:33:1::3/64	ANY	UDP	30000	30000	ACCEPT	Accepts control packets between ASM installed on the same SBC and the SBC CPU. UDP/30000 is a reserved port.
5	2001:db8:33:1::3/64	ANY	UDP	30001	30001	ACCEPT	Accepts control packets between ASM installed on the same SBC and the SBC CPU. UDP/30001 is a reserved port.
6	ANY	ANY	UDP	30000	30000	DROP	Drops any other source that uses the reserved port 30000.
7	ANY	ANY	UDP	30001	30001	DROP	Drops any other source that uses the reserved port 30001.
8	ANY	ANY	ANY	ANY	ANY	DROP	By default discards all traffic, if the above rules don't match.

Sample ACL "admintraffic"

This ACL accepts specified management traffic and discards all other packets. Also the ACLs should be bound to all ports used only for administration.This example is for SBC 2000 and should be customized for your specific requirements.

ID	Source IP Subnet	Dest IP Subnet	Protocol	Source port	Destination port	Action	Notes
1	ANY	ANY	TCP	ANY	443	ACCEPT	Accepts incoming HTTPS request.
2	ANY	ANY	TCP	ANY	80	ACCEPT	Accepts incoming HTTP request.
3	ANY	ANY	UDP	ANY	161	ACCEPT	Accepts incoming SNMP requests.
4	ANY	ANY	TCP	ANY	22	ACCEPT	Accepts incoming SSH requests.
5	ANY	2001:db8:33:1::3/64	TCP	ANY	3389	ACCEPT	Accepts incoming RDP packets to ASM (assuming ASM's IP address is 2001:db8:33:1::3/64).

6

ANY

DROP

By default, drops all traffic, if the above rules don't match.

Sample ACL Binding

The ACLs in this example are applied only to the inbound direction of the ports. Once the ACLs are bound to the ports, ports Ethernet 1-4 are used only for VoIP and not for management. The ADMIN port is used only for management and not for user traffic.

Port	ACL Name	Direction	Notes
Ethernet 1	usertraffic	INBOUND	Ethernet 1 is used primarily only for user's traffic such as VoIP calls. The WebUI or any management traffic will be discarded.
Ethernet 2	usertraffic	INBOUND	same as above.
Ethernet 3	usertraffic	INBOUND	same as above.
Ethernet 4	usertraffic	INBOUND	same as above.
ADMIN	admintraffic	INBOUND	ADMIN port is used only for administration. All user traffic (i.e., SIP, RTP) is discarded.

Typical WAN/LAN Deployment

Info
These are sample ACLs and should be customized for your specific deployment.

A typical SBC deployment may have two 'sides'. One side is the LAN-side or the corporate-network side, and the other is the Internet-side, WAN-side or the provider-network side. Neither side should be trusted entirely. ACLs must be configured so that only SIP/VOIP/RTP traffic is allowed on both sides. An additional task is usually to determine the IP interface WebUI/REST management is allowed on.

Note
When configuring ACLs, it is possible to isolate the SBC out of the network. Ensure there are rules in place to accept HTTPS on at least one IP interface. The order of rules in the ACL is important.

For this example, consider that the Sonus Ribbon SBC 1000 has two IP interfaces

Ethernet 1 IP: 2001:db8:12:3:10::10 (LAN-side, office-side, branch-side, corporate network-side)
Ethernet 2 IP: 2001:db8:10:1:10::10 (SIP trunk side, WAN-side, Provider-side, Internet-side)

LAN Side ACL

(For this example, this ACL must be applied to 'Ethernet 1 IP' as "Input ACL")

Description	Protocol	Action	Port Selection	Service	Source IP	Source Prefix Length	Source Min Port	Source Max Port	Dest IP	Dest Min Port	Dest Max Port	Description
Allow WebUI/HTTPS	TCP	Allow	Service	HTTPS	::	0			::			For more security, replace the source IP and mask with the network addresses that is on the LAN-side. Also, consider the subnets used for VPN users of that corporate network.
Allow WebUI/HTTP to redirect to HTTPS	TCP	Allow	Service	HTTP	::	0			::			Not strictly required, but this is good for convenience. SBC will redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS.
Accept SIP Signaling over UDP	UDP	Allow	Range		2001:db8:40:1:1::1	128	1024	65535	::	5060	5060	Create one rule for every SIP protocol/port combination on the SBC, based on all Signaling Groups. Source IP and mask, must match what is configured on the Federated-IP network as well. In this example, perhaps 2001:db8:40:1:1::1 is a IP-PBX that supports SIP over UDP.
Accept SIP Signaling over TCP and TLS	TCP	Allow	Range		2001:db8:50:1:1::2	128	1024	65535	::	5067	5067	Create one rule for every SIP protocol/port combination on the SBC, based on all Signaling Groups. Source IP and mask, must match what is configured on the Federated-IP network as well. In this example, perhaps 2001:db8:50:1:1::2 is a Lync Mediation Server that supports SIP over TLS.
Accept SIP Signaling TCP and TLS ACKs	TCP	Allow	Range		2001:db8:50:1:1::2	128	5067	5067	::	1024	65535	Create one rule for every SIP server. This rule allows the TCP ACKs to return to the SBC. Source IP and mask, must match what is configured on the Federated-IP network as well. In this example, perhaps 2001:db8:50:1:1::2 is a Lync mediation server that supports SIP over TLS.
Accept RTP/RTCP packets	UDP	Allow	Range		::	0	1024	65535	::	16384	17583	Accept all RTP/SRTP packets. Note that the port-range must match that of Media System Configuration on the SBC.
Accept DNS responses	UDP	Allow	Range		::	0	53	53	::	1024	65535	Accept DNS responses for all DNS_requests initiated by the SBC.
Discard all other packets	ANY	Deny			::	0			::			Discard all other packets.

(Destination IP and Prefix may be replaced with a specific IP address of 2001:db8:12:3:10::10 and a prefix of 128 for ensuring all communications only use that specific IP address. )

SIP Trunk Side ACL

(For this example, this ACL must be applied to 'Ethernet 2 IP' as "Input ACL")

Div

class	pdf6pttext

Description	Protocol	Action	Port Selection	Source IP	Source Prefix	Source Min Port	Source Max Port	Dest IP	Dest Prefix	Dest Min Port	Dest Max Port	Description
Accept SIP Signaling over UDP	UDP	Allow	Range	2001:db8:20:5:1::20	128	1024	65535	2001:db8:10:1:10::10	128	5060	5060	Create one rule for every SIP protocol/port combination on the SBC, based on all Signaling Groups. Source IP and mask, must match what is configured on the Federated-IP network as well. In this example, perhaps 2001:db8:20:5:1::20 is the IP address of the SIP-trunk peer.
Accept RTP/RTCP packets	UDP	Allow	Range	2001:db8:20:5:1::20	128	1024	65535	2001:db8:10:1:10::10	128	16384	17583	Accept all RTP/SRTP packets. Note that the port-range must match that of Media System Configuration on the SBC.
Accept DNS responses	UDP	Allow	Range	::	0	53	53	::	0	1024	65535	Accept DNS responses for all DNS_requests initiated by the SBC.
Discard all other packets	ANY	Deny		::	0			::	0			Discard all other packets.

(Destination IP and mask may be replaced with a specific IP address of the SBC on the SIP-trunk side).
