In this section:
These objects specify the IP interfaces that the SBC will utilize for telephony, management, and system debugging traffic.
IP Interface Groups are a primary tool for accomplishing disjoint networks (administrative network separation). An IP Interface Group is the local manifestation of a segregated network domain.
The IP Interface on the media ports 0 and 1 are considered as first set (example: set 1) and the IP Interfaces on media ports 2 and 3 are considered as second set (Example: set 2).
While associating the interfaces to an IP Interface Group, the IP Interfaces associated to the group must be from the same set (set 1 or set 2). This should be set at the configuration level.
When calculating bandwidth size, keep in mind that an IPv6 header size (40 bytes) is twice as large as IPv4 header (20 bytes), thus reducing the number of messages when using IPv6.
Note
Each signaling port within an Address Context must use a unique IP address and port number combination.
Note
The SBC 52x0 and SBC 7000 systems support creating IP Interface Groups containing sets of IP interfaces that are not "processor friendly" (i.e. carried on physical Ethernet ports served by separate processors). However, restrictions exist regarding the usage of such Interface Groups.
(This ability does not apply to the SBC 51x0 and SBC 5400 systems which have only two physical media ports. IP interfaces from the two physical ports may be configured within the same IP Interface Groups without restriction.)
For complete details, refer to Configuring IP Interface Groups and Interfaces.
To View Ip Interface Group
On SBC main screen, go to Configuration > System Provisioning > Category: Base Provisioning > Ip Interface Group. The Ip Interface Group window is displayed.
System Provisioning - Ip Interface Group
The Ip Interface Group can be checked for each Address Context or for all the Address Contexts created. Use the drop-down box to select the desired Address Context.
