Not applicable to the SBC Software Edition (SWe).

When configuring LI through EMA/ERE, you must be 'Calea' user. See "Default Accounts and Passwords" for descriptions of users and permissions.


The

Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
provides Lawful Intercept (LI) support using one of two methods:

  • Using ERE with provisioning support from EMA (license required).
  • Using centralized PSX with provisioning support from EMS (license required).

The 

Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
supports up to 500 simultaneous LI sessions. 
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
works in coordination with an Intercept Server (IS) to provide call data and call content to law enforcement agencies for calls involving identified intercept subjects. When it receives matching LI criteria in a policy response from ERE (or external PSX in centralized PSX solution), the 
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
routes the call as directed and additionally reports call events to the IS.

The 

Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
also sends an RTP copy of the call's voice streams (call content) to an IP address provided by the IS. LI is configured by EMA (or EMS in centralized PSX solution). The target number is uploaded to LI table of ERE (or PSX, with the help of EMS).

You can configure the LI using only the default AddressContext.

See Lawful Intercept page for an in-depth explanation of LI functionality.

Note

The SBC 52x0 and SBC 7000 systems support creating IP Interface Groups containing sets of IP interfaces that are not "processor friendly" (i.e. carried on physical Ethernet ports served by separate processors). However, restrictions exist regarding the usage of such Interface Groups.

(This ability does not apply to the SBC 51x0 and SBC 5400 systems which have only two physical media ports. IP interfaces from the two physical ports may be configured within the same IP Interface Groups without restriction.)

For complete details, refer to Configuring IP Interface Groups and Interfaces.

Specifies the media details of LI Server using UDP mode of transport.

  • udpMediaIpAddress <ip address> – The LI Server's UDP media IP address where the media is sent.
  • udpMediaPort <port #> – The LI Server's UDP port where the media is sent. (range: 0-65535)
dsrTcpPort  0-65535 <port#> – The LI Server's TCP port where DSR messages are sent. This value is set when mediaTypeIntercepted is set to multimedia.

interceptStandard

N/A

The Intercept Standard to use for this Call Data Channel.

  • etsi
  • packetcable (default)
  • threeGpp

ipInterfaceGroupName

0-23

<IPIG name> – Name of the IP interface group used to stream to the LI Server.

kaTimer

0-65535

<# seconds> (default = 5) – The keep-alive timer value, in seconds.

liPolDipForRegdOodMsgs N/A

 Use this flag to control the sending of the policy dip to PSX for registered user's Out-Of-Dialog messages.

  • disabled (default) – SBC does not send policy request to PSX for registered out-of-dialog requests (messages).

Configuring SBC for Different LI Flavors

The following table depicts the interceptStandard and verndorId configuration options to configure SBC for the the various LI flavors.

Configuring SBC for Different LI Flavors

Configuration Settings

 

LI Flavor

interceptStandardvendorId
packetcablenone/utimaco/verintLegacy LI (default)
packetcabless8SS8 LI

Command Examples

To configure intercept standard:

% set addressContext default intercept callDataChannel CDC interceptStandard etsi 

To configure the vendor ID:

% set addressContext default intercept callDataChannel CDC interceptStandard etsi vendorId verint

To configure mediation server for media interception:

Mediation server’s ipInterfaceGroup must be different from other signaling ipInterface groups. This ensures that LI doesn't use signaling ipAddress to send intercepted traffic (media/signaling) towards Mediation Server.

% set addressContext default intercept callDataChannel CDC interceptStandard etsi vendorId verint mediationServer ms1
