Add SBC Mode

To add a new SBC Mode connection, click the Add SBC Mode button from the SBC Mode Menu.

Name - Type a meaningful name for the SBC Mode connection. A best practice is to include the PBX type and Protocol used to for registration.

Location - This is the Orchestrator that the SBC Mode connection is created on.

Zone - This is the zone (logical network) on the Orchestrator that the SBC Mode connection is created on.

Switch IP - This is the IP address or FQDN that the SIP based IP phone or softphone will use to register to or through.

Protocol - This is the protocol that will be used to connect to the Orchestrator.

Port - This is the source port that will be used by the SIP based IP phone or softphone to registration to the Orchestrator. If the Protocol is UDP then this port is usually 5060. If the Protocol is TCP or TLS 1.2 then the Port must be set to 1. The value of 1 represents all ports. The TCP and TLS 1.2 Protocols use random ephemeral source ports to establish a connection.

Reg Expiry - This field is used to determine how long in seconds that a successful registration should be cached by the Orchestrator. Once this time period has expired the registration will be flushed by the Orchestrator and the IP Phone or softphone will be required to re-register.

Main Registrar - This field contains the name of the Termination Vendor Trunk Group that is used to forward SIP messages to the customer PBX.

Registration Mode - This field determines how the SIP registration messages are processed.

Disabled - This option disables the SBC Mode. SIP registration messages are silently ignored.

Process Locally - The SIP registration messages are processed by the Orchestrator.

Pass through - The SIP registration messages are passed to the Main Registrar via the Trunk Group selected in the Main Registrar field.

Cancel - Click the Cancel button to discard the Add SBC Mode settings and return to the SBC Mode page.
