  2. Double-click ‘Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)’
  3. Select ‘Use the following IP address, and then enter an available IP address ‘192.168.11.XXX’DINSTAR-SBC300-SBC-Series-Session-Border-Controller-fig-10

Log in to Web Management System
Connect the computer to the GE1 port of SBC3000 (or the MGMT port of SBC300/SBC1000), then open the browser, enter the IP address In the browser, press enter, and the login GUI will be displayed. Enter username and password in the displayed login GUI. The default username is admin, while the default password is admin@123#.

Configure Access Network
On the ‘Service – Access Network’ page, users can configure the Access Network to use SBC for proxy registration The signaling and media interfaces are the same as the corresponding network port for service. The local SIP listening port is 5090(customizable), and other configuration items keep the default

Configure Access SIP Trunk
On the ‘Service – Access Network’ page, users can configure the Access SIP Trunk to connect SBC with a service provider or third-party SIP line provider. The signaling and media interfaces are the same as the corresponding network port for service. The local SIP listening port is 5070 (customizable), and the Remote IP: Port is the server IP and port provided by the Service Provider.

Configure Call Routing
Configure Call Routing(Core SIP Trunk→ Access SIP Trunk) On the ‘Service – Routing Profile – Call Routing’ page, add an outbound route, select Core SIP Trunk as the source and Access SIP Trunk as the destination, and keep the other configuration items as a default. Set the priority (the smaller the number, the higher the priority) and the description:

Select Core SIP Trunk as the source

Select Access SIP Trunk as the destination:

Configure Call Routing(Access SIP Trunk → Core SIP Trunk)On the ‘Service – Routing Profile – Call Routing’ page, add an inbound route, select Access SIP Trunk as the source and Core SIP Trunk as the destination, and keep the other configuration items as a default. Set the priority (the smaller the number, the higher the priority) and the description:

Select Access SIP Trunk as the source
Select Core SIP Trunk as the destination:

Note: Based on the above steps, users can configure the call routing in the direction of Access Network → Core SIP Trunk or Core SIP Trunk → Access Network.

Trouble Shooting

(1) Unable to access the device WEB GUI. First, check whether the access network port is the Network Port for management, The network Port for service is not allowed to access the Web GUI by default; To access the WEB GUI of SBC, you need to use the HTTPS method, the default port 443; Using Ping to check whether the network works normally. If the network is not accessible, you need to check whether the IP address of the device is correct and whether the indicator of the network port is normal.

Why does the extension fail to register through the access network?
First, check the basic configuration of the SBC, such as whether the network port, SIP listening port, and Call Routing are correct; Then check that the Server IP and port of the end device are the same as the IP and port of the SBC Access Network; Capture the network packets (on the Maintenance page), and check whether the SBC has received the registered packets and whether they have been successfully forwarded to the Core SIP Trunk.

Why did the call through SBC fail?
First, check whether the Access Network registration is successful and whether The status of the Access SIP Trunk and Core SIP Trunk is True; Check that Call Routing is configured correctly; Capture the network packets (on the Maintenance page), and check that the SBC has received the Call Request message; Log in to the SSH command line to capture call logs and provide them to technical support. Forget the management port IP address of the device. If other service ports can access the device, you can try to use the IP access of the service ports; Prepare an RS232 Console cable and a computer with a COM interface, then connect the device’s Console port to access the device Command line interface, enter the command “show int” in ROS# mode to get the IP address of the device.

Tips for security settings
To protect the system service security, please configure the security rules according to the specific service requirements. For example IP anti-attack policy, SIP anti-attack policy, system security, access control, black and white list, IP address whitelist, etc. If you have any questions about the configuration and parameters, please contact technical support.
