titleNote:

If an IP Peer is configured to use an FQDN port (other than port 5061), the SBC increments the configured port number by 1 and uses it as the new port number for SIP over TLS signaling.

If the IP Peer is configured to use port 5061 and the transport is TLS, no changes are made to the configuration.

Name

The name of the IP Peer.

IP Address

Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the peer.

Set to 'true' if this peer should be used for the IP Address and ephemeral port on ingress, or 'false' if this peer will not be used for the IP Address and ephemeral port on ingress.

SIP Response Code Stats

Specifies whether SIP response code statistics are collected for the IP Peer.The options are:

  • Disabled (default)
  • Enabled
Warning
titleWarning:
Enabling the collection of statistics on trunk groups or IP peers may have significant impact on network performance of an SBC system under heavy load. 
Mode

Specifies the status of the IP peer. The options are:

  • Out of Service
  • In Service (default)
Action

Specifies the method to use to exit calls if the mode of the IP peer is set to Out of Service. Options are:

  • Dry up - allows the amount of time specified by Dry Up Timeout for calls to end before calls are cleared.
  • Force - calls are cleared immediately.
Dry Up TimeoutSpecifies an interval, in minutes, that calls are allowed to continue when the IP peer is taken out of service. The default is 5 minutes. The range allowed is 1 to 1440 minutes.
Block Direction

Specifies a direction in which calls are blocked for this IP peer. The options are:

  • None (default)
  • Bothways

User Part

Specifies the user part for this Surrogate Registration.
Auth User NameSpecifies the authorization User Name for surrogate registration. The value ranges up to 127 characters.

Retry Timer

Specifies the time, in milliseconds, after which the REGISTRATION is retried after a failure. The Value range from 50 - 10000000 milliseconds. The default value is 900000 milliseconds (15 minutes).

Reg Auth
Password

Specifies the DES3 (triple Digital Encryption Standard) encrypted string authentication password for surrogate registration. All ASCII characters from 33 to 126 (except 34 - double quotes) are allowed. SBC users "Admin" and "Operator" have full access to surrogate registration passwords.

Send Credentials 

Defines how the Credentials are sent. Options are:

  • challengeForAnyMessage Challenge For Any Message – The SBC sends credentials for REGISTER, INVITE, PRACK, UPDATE, REINVITE and BYE when these messages are challenged.
  • challengeForAnyMessageAndInDialogRequests Challenge For Any Message And InDialog Requests – The SBC sends credentials for REGISTER, INVITE, PRACK, UPDATE, REINVITE and BYE when these messages are challenged. The SBC also sends credentials by default as per last challenge in the in-dialog requests such as PRACK, UPDATE, REINVITE and BYE when any one of these methods is challenged earlier in the call.
  • challengeForRegister Challenge For Register (default) – The SBC sends credentials only for REGISTER when challenged. Challenges for any other messages are returned to the IP-PBX.
notenote
Info
titleNote:

Refresh REGISTER and De-REGISTER are always sent without credentials. If such a REGISTER is challenged, then SBC responds with a new REGISTER with credentials.

Info
titleNote:

The SBC mirrors the credentials to the standby of an HA System. If the sendCredentials is set to 'challengeForAnyMessageAndInDialogRequests', upon a switchover the SBC can send in-dialog requests such as REINVITE/UPDATE/BYE with credentials.

Suppress Reg Retry After Auth Fail

Use this flag to control sending registration retries when a REGISTER with credentials is challenged (with stale ≠ true and realm is identical to previous realm received).
When stale = true or realm is not identical to previous realm received, the SBC immediately sends REGISTER.

  • disabled Disabled (default) – Send REGISTER when a 401 or 407 in response to REGISTER with credentials is received.
  • enabledEnabled – Do not attempt to send REGISTER after receiving a 401 or 407 response.
Surr Reg Profile Specifies the name of the Surrogate Registration Profile.
User Next Reg Call For Call

When this flag option is enabled, it tries to use the next available pilot number to resend the INVITE.

Info
titleNote:

Crankback

Note

Crank back profile should be configured for 4xx (403) response.

Use User Name As PAI

When this flag option is enabled, the configured userName User Name in surrogateRegistraion Surrogate Registration should be used as userName the User Name in the outgoing INVITE.

note
Info
titleNote:

This flag indicates sending PAI in outgoing Invite. The flag, Include Privacy must be disabled.

Host PartWhen this flag is configured with a name, the assigned name is used as a hostname of RURIR-URI, FROMFrom, TO and To headers of all outgoing calls.
Authentication
Int Challenge Response

Enable this flag on the ingress IP Peer to allow the SBC to reply to local authentication challenges autonomously. If this flag is disabled, the SBC will not reply to authentication challenges locally even if credentials are configured on the egress IPTG.

  • disabled Disabled (default)
  • enabled Enabled
Inc Internal Credentials

Enable this flag on the ingress IP Peer to allow egress IPTG authentication to be internally created using the authorization information in mid-dialogue without being challenged.

  • disabled Disabled (default)
  • enabled
  • Enabled
