Document Overview

This document outlines the configuration best practices for Ribbon SBC SWe Edge interworking with Google Voice SIP Link. 

About Ribbon SBC SWe Edge

The Ribbon Session Border Controller Software Edition Lite (SBC SWe Edge) provides best-in-class communications security. The SBC SWe Edge dramatically simplifies the deployment of robust communications security services for SIP Trunking, Direct Routing, and Cloud UC services. SBC SWe Edge operates natively in the Azure and AWS Cloud as well as on virtual machine platforms including Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware and Linux KVM.

About Google Voice

Google Voice is a telephone service that provides a U.S. phone number to Google Account customers in the U.S. and Google Works customers in Canada, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Calls are forwarded to the phone number that each user must configure in the account web portal. Users can answer and receive calls on any of the phones configured to ring in the web portal. While answering a call, the user can switch between the configured phones. Subscribers in the United States can make outgoing calls to domestic and international destinations. The service is configured and maintained by users in a web-based application, similar in style to Google's email service Gmail, or Android and iOS applications on smartphones or tablets.

  2. Set the Key Length to 2048 bits.
  3. Provide the location information.
  4. Click OK.
  5. The CSR will be generated and displayed in the result text box.

After generating the CSR on Ribbon SBC, provide it to the Certificate Authority. CA would generally provide the following certificates:

  • SBC Certificate
  • CA's Root Certificate
  • Intermediate Certificate

There are two ways to import SBC Primary Certificate as described below:

To import an X.509 signed certificate:

  1. Select X.509 Signed Certificate from the Import menu at the top of the page.
  2. Chose the import mode (Copy and Paste or File Upload) from the Mode pull-down menu.
  3. If you chose File Upload, use the Browse button to find the file and click OK.
  4. If you choose Copy and Paste, open the file in a text editor, paste the contents into the Paste Base64 Certificate text field and click OK.

To import a PKCS12 Certificate and Key:

  1. Select PKCS12 Certificate and Key from the Import menu at the top of the page.
  2. Enter the password used to export the certificate in the Password field.
  3. Browse for the PKCS certificate and key file and click OK.

Trusted CA Certificates

A Trusted CA Certificate is a certificate issued by a Trusted Certificate Authority. Trusted CA Certificates are imported to the SBC SWe Edge to establish its authenticity on the network.

  • For TLS to work, a Trusted CA (Certificate Authority) is required. For this interop, GoDaddy is used as Trusted CA.
  • Add an entry in the Public DNS to resolve Ribbon SBC SWe Edge FQDN to Public IP Address.
  • Ensure to have the following certificates as part of the root certificate trust:
    • GTS Root R1
    • GlobalSign Root CA (if required)
Note

Refer to Google Voice SIP Link documentation for other compatible CAs.

From the Settings tab, navigate to Security > SBC Certificates > Trusted CA Certificates.

This section describes the process of importing Trusted Root CA Certificates using either the File Upload or Copy and Paste method.

  1. To import a Trusted CA Certificate, click the Import Trusted CA Certificate () Icon.
  2. Select either Copy and Paste or File Upload from the Mode menu.
  3. If you choose File Upload, use the Select File button to find the file.

Note

When the Verify Status field in the Certificate panel indicates Expired or Expiring Soon, replace the Trusted CA Certificate. You must delete the old certificate before importing a new certificate successfully.


Warning

Most Certificate Vendors sign the SBC Edge certificate with an intermediate certificate authority. There is at least one, but there could be several intermediate CAs in the certificate chain. When importing the Trusted Root CA Certificates, import the root CA certificate and all Intermediate CA certificates. Failure to import all certificates in the chain causes the import of the SBC Edge certificate to fail. Please refer to Unable To Get Local Issuer Certificate for more information.

Networking Interfaces

The SBC SWe Edge supports five system created logical interfaces known as Administrative IP, Ethernet 1 IP, Ethernet 2 IP, Ethernet 3 IP, and Ethernet 4 IP. In addition to the system created logical interfaces, the Ribbon SBC SWe Edge supports user created VLAN logical sub-interfaces.

Administrative IP, Ethernet 1 IP and Ethernet 2 IP are used for this interop.

From the Settings tab, navigate to Networking Interfaces > Logical Interfaces.

Administrative IP

The SBC SWe Edge system supports a logical interface called the Admin IP (Administrative IP, also known as the Management IP). A Static IP or DHCP is used for running Initial Setup of the SBC SWe Edge system.

Ethernet 1 IP

Ethernet 1 IP is assigned an IP address used for transporting all the VOIP media packets (for example, RTP, SRTP) and all protocol packets (for example, SIP, RTCP, TLS). DNS servers of the customer's network should map the SBC SWe Edge system hostname to this IP address. In the default software, Ethernet 1 IP is enabled and an IPv4 address is acquired via a connected DHCP server. This IP address is used for performing Initial Setup on the SBC SWe Edge.

Ethernet 2 IP

After initial configuration, you may configure this logical interface using the Settings or Tasks tabs in the WebUI or you can use the IP address configured during Initial Setup.

Configure Static Routes

Static routes are used to create communication to remote networks. In a production environment, static routes are mainly configured for routing from a specific network to another network that you can only access through one point or one interface (single path access or default route).

Derive the Private IP address and Gateway for each interface on AWS.

Destination IP
Specifies the destination IP address.

Mask
Specifies the network mask of the destination host or subnet. If the 'Destination IP Address' field and 'Mask' field are both 0.0.0.0, the static route is called the 'default static route'.

Gateway
Specifies the IP address of the next-hop router to use for this static route.

Metric
Specifies the cost of this route and therefore indirectly specifies the preference of the route. Lower values indicate more preferred routes. The typical value is 1 for most static routes, indicating that static routes are preferred to dynamic routes.

From the Settings tab, navigate to Protocols > IP > Static Routes. Click the  icon to add the entries.

Global Configuration

Media Profiles

Media Profiles allow you to specify the individual voice and fax compression codecs and their associated settings, for inclusion in a Media List. Different codecs provide varying levels of compression, allowing one to reduce bandwidth requirements at the expense of voice quality.

From the Settings tab, navigate to Media > Media Profiles. From the Create Media Profile drop-down, select Voice Codec Profile.

The codecs G711A and G711U are configured on the SBC SWe Edge by default. Configure OPUS and G722 by following the steps provided below:

Note

OPUS is supported on the Ribbon SBC SWe Edge but not on the SBC 1K. During the 1K configuration, ignore the step below that describes the procedure to configure OPUS codec.
