To create or modify an SDES-SRTP Profile:
SDES-SRTP Profiles was previously named Media Crypto Profiles.
- In the WebUI, click the Settings tab.
In the left navigation pane, go to Media > SDES-SRTP Profiles.
Modifying an SDES-SRTP Profile
- Click the expand ( ) Icon next to the entry you wish to modify.
- Edit the entry properties as required, see details below.
Creating an SDES-SRTP Profile
Click the Create SDES-SRTP Profile (

SRTP Config - Field Definitions
Operation Option
Specifies the manner in which encryption is supported in the profile.
- Required: This setting permits call connections only if encryption can be used for the call. If the peer device does not support SRTP (Secure Real Time Protocol) for voice encryption over the IP network, the call setup will fail.
- Supported: This setting advertises to the peer device that the Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"implements SRTP. However, a call connection is allowed in secure or unsecure mode depending on the peer preference and capability.
- Off: This setting disables the use of SRTP for encrypted calling.
Anytime Supported is selected in the Operation Option field and the SIP transport is TCP/UDP, the SDP Crypto attributes are sent in plain text.
Crypto Suite
Specifies the crypto suite that the
Available options:
- AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_80. A crypto suite algorithm which uses the 128 bit AES-CM encryption key and a 80 bit HMAC_SHA1 message authentication tag length.
- AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_32. A crypto suite algorithm which uses the 128 bit AES-CM encryption key and a 32 bit HMAC_SHA1 message authentication tag length.
Default option: AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_80.
Master Key - Field Definitions
Master Key Lifetime
Specifies whether or not the Master Key has an expiry.
Lifetime Value
Specifies the lifetime of the Master Key, measured in numbers of SRTP packets expressed as a power of 2 (i.e., 2^n SRTP Packets) with a configurable range of 2^1 to 2^48 . When Master Key Lifetime is configured to Never Expires, a Lifetime Value of 2^48 is used.
Derivation Rate
Specifies the rate at which the session key is refreshed during the SRTP session, measured in numbers of SRTP packets expressed as a power of 2 (e.g. 2^n SRTP Packets). If the value is set to zero, the session key is never refreshed.
This option is available when Derive Session Key is Set to a range 16 to 24.
Key Identifier Length
Specifies the length of the Master Key Identifier, in bytes, sent in the SRTP packet.
The key identifier (MKI) identifies the master key from which the session key(s) were derived that authenticate and/or encrypt the particular packet.
If the MKI indicator is set to one(key identifier length > 0), the length (in octets) of the MKI field, and (for the sender) the actual value of the currently active MKI (the value of the MKI indicator and length MUST be kept fixed for the lifetime of the context).
Set this value to 0 to disable the MKI in SDP.
