In this section:

The Microsoft Skype for Business SDN (Software-Defined Networking) API provides an interface for network management systems to access Skype network diagnostic data for monitoring Skype network traffic and optimizing the Skype quality of service experiences. In order to fully benefit this technology on the

SBC, you can deploy the SDN listener on your Branch Office Appliance.

This Best Practice outlines how to install the SDN listener on the Branch Office Appliance.

1. Prerequisites

1.1 Install the SDN Manager

1.2 Setup the DNS service location record

  1. Log on to the DNS server and open the DNS Manager.

  2. Choose the zone in which to create the service location record (Current Domain, Forward Lookup Zone).

  3. From the Context menu, select Other New Records ... Navigate to Service Location, and select Create Record.

  4. Provide the following values in the form:
    • Service: _sdninternal
    • Protocol: _http or _https
    • Port number: 9333 (9332 for https)
    • Host offering the LSM service: FQDN of the host computer (for example, SdnPool.LneProd.contoso.com)

Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
ASM Package via WebUI

Before you Begin
This operation can only be performed when the SBC 1000/2000 Communication service becomes operational. In other words, only when a valid ASM IP address has been configured either via the Initial Setup or the ASM IP Settings.

  1. Download the roll-up file from Sonus Download Center and save it on your desktop or other convenient location.

  2. Launch your preferred browser. See Supported Platforms.

  3. Through the WebUI, login to the

    node.

  4. Follow instructions in Installing an ASM Package.

2.2 Create the CsServerApplication registration with Lync

When installing the Dialog Listener package, the setup will not attempt to register the Dialog Listener application with Lync. This registration needs to happen after the SBA entry has been created in Topology Builder and published.

This step is not necessary if the Dialog Listener application has already been registered with Lync for this pool before. This step only needs to be completed once for each pool.

The command is:

New-CsServerApplication -Identity "Service:Registrar:MySBAPoolFQDN/Diagnostics" -Uri http://www.microsoft.com/LC/NetworkEnlightenment -Enabled $true -Critical $false -Priority 0

For example:

New-CsServerApplication -Identity "Service:Registrar:sbapool1.contoso.com/Diagnostics" -Uri http://www.microsoft.com/LC/NetworkEnlightenment -Enabled $true -Critical $false -Priority 0

After this registration exists, the LyncDialogListener windows service can be started on the SBA. At this time, the Lync Front-End must be running.

3. Installed Software
