In this section:

 

This profile specifies the type and behavior of security mechanism to apply to the Access Solution acting as P-CSCF.

Note

When configuring Sip Security Profile on a particular SIP Trunk Group, ensure Authcode Headers transparency flag (see Common Ip Attributes - Transparency Flags) is not enabled on the same Trunk Group.

Note

When configuring a SIP Security Profile in P-CSCF mode, a Sip Security Mechanism is required.

IMPORTANT

The Transparency Profile is the recommended method of configuring transparency on the SBC Core for new deployments as well as when applying additional transparency configurations to existing deployments. Do not use IP Signaling Profile flags in these scenarios because the flags will be retired in upcoming releases.

Refer to the SBC SIP Transparency Implementation Guide for additional information.

Sbx Sec Mode

Use this parameter to define the SBC security mode for this SIP Security Profile. The options are:

  • Sbc-pcscf: SBC acts as integrated SBC+PCSCF mode.
  • Sbc-only: SBC-only mode. SBC disregards the configured security mechanism (ipsec-3gpp or tls) in the profile, if any.

When Sbx Sec Mode is configured as sbc-only, you must configure a Transparency Profile for following headers in an egress trunk group.
