- Edit the entry properties as required, see details below.
Creating a TLS Profile
Click the Create TLS Profile (

TLS Profile - Field Definitions
TLS Protocol
Specifies the TLS Protocol. Valid entries: TLS 1.0 Only, TLS 1.2 Only, or TLS 1.0 - 1.2. Once the TLS is option is selected, the Client Cipher List is automatically updated to display only the ciphers supported for the selected TLS version.
The TLS version you choose for the SBC TLS Profile must match the TLS version configured in the SBA security for the associated SIP Server.
For TLS Profile in SBC... | Select the TLS below in SBA Security Template |
---|---|
TLS 1.0 Only | TLS 1.0-1.2 |
TLS 1.2 Only | TLS 1.2 only or TLS 1.0-1.2 |
TLS 1.0 - 1.2 | TLS 1.0-1.2 |
Mutual Authentication
Enables the Mutual authentication request and verifications of the SIP peer client certificate.
This setting is part of the standard level of Mutual TLS security. Mutual Authentication includes a check on the certificate dates for certificate validity and whether the certificate is signed by a local trusted root CA.
Handshake Inactivity Timeout
Specifies the SIP TLS client and server handshake inactivity timeout interval.
The Inactivity Timeout terminates the TLS session if there have been no handshakes in the specified period of time.
The handshake inactivity timeout should be adjusted to 30 seconds if there are network delays and/or timeouts.
Client Cipher List
Specifies the cipher suite parameter exchanged and negotiated in the SIP TLS client handshake message. The list is automatically populated with the ciphers supported for the selected TLS Protocol.
The
- TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
- TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
- TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384
- TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
- TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
- TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256
- TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
- TLS_RSA_WITH_AES256_CBC_SHA
- TLS_RSA_WITH_AES128_CBC_SHA
- TLS_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
The TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA is incompatible with Lync servers.
Verify Peer Server Certificate
Specifies whether or not to verify the identity of a peer server. Available when Mutual Authentication is disabled.
This setting is part of the standard level of Mutual TLS security. Verify Peer Server Certificate implies that Mutual Authentication is enabled first. Verify Peer Server Certificate includes a check on the certificate dates for certificate validity and whether the certificate is signed by a local trusted root CA.
Validate Server FQDN
The Validate Server FQDN is an enhanced security feature of the
Validate Server FQDN (enabled) option allows the
- Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"does not validate IP addresses to identify a peer server, but only Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN).
- Make sure this parameter is set to Disabled if the peer server is using an IP address.
Certificate (Client Attributes)
Specifies the certificate (primary or supplementary) that is in use and that the
Validate Client FQDN
Specifies the reverse DNS lookup of a peer's FQDN. Used to verify the identity of the SIP peer client certificate.
This action takes place when both, Mutual Authentication and Validate Client FQDN are enabled. If Mutual Authentication is disabled, the Validate Client FQDN is also disabled. Validate Client FQDN is an enhanced security feature of
Certificate (Server Attributes)
Specifies the certificate (primary or supplementary) that is in use and that the
