session Border controller (easy ut installation)
Session Border Controller 3.0 Session Border Controller (SBC) – Overview Easy connection of remote KX-UT Series SIP phones to the NS1000 can be realized by using a Mediatrix 501 Series Session Border Controller (Firmware V5.35-M4). Once the KX-UT phone is suitable programmed, it can be connected to the LAN at the remote office and connection will be established with the NS1000 at the main office. Main Office Remote Office Internet NS1000 Perimeter Router Mediatrix 501 SBC The SBC device assists in the NAT-Traversal process and can allow the connection of remote KX-UT terminals to the NS1000 without the need for a VPN. NB: The SBC/NS1000v2 supported configuration is for the SBC to sit BEHIND the Perimeter Router/Firewall (i.e. LAN Interface Only)
Session Border Controller 3.1 Session Border Controller (SBC) – Specification KX-UT Series SIP Phones and 3rd Party SIP Phones which support Early Media functionality can be connected via the SBC. One NS1000 can be connected to one SBC device only One SBC Device can support up to 20 remote connections (Simultaneous RTP Streams) The NS1000 can support Max 20 HTTP/HTTPS Sessions (required to manage the Remote Extension) eSBC501 is available in 5/10/20 session versions; (It is possible to register 20 Remote extension on the NS1000 and use a 5 Session SBC, however only 5 simultaneous call paths will be supported through the SBC) Remote Office SIP/TR069(CWMP)/NTP NS1000 KX-UT supported s/w: V1.160 KX-UTxxx (Max 20 simultaneous connections.) Mediatrix eSBC 501 NB: If CA or other Applications are required at the Remote Office, a VPN will be required. The SBC supports KX-UT / SIP Phones only.

Session Border Controller 3.3 Session Border Controller (SBC) – Network Diagram Example The example below shows a typical deployment Head Office Remote Office MPR:192.168.1.101 DSP:192.168.1.102 (RTP) Netmask:255.255.255.0 DGW:192.168.1.1 SIP Extension Server:192.168.1.101:15060 LAN1:192.168.1.1 *WAN1: 61.xxx.xxx.xxx (Provided by ISP) Internet LAN1:192.168.1.254 *WAN2:210.xxx.xxx.xxx (Provided by ISP) LAN2:192.168.0.254 Mediatrix SBC Router requires Port forward settings to allow incoming traffic to the SBC. e.g. SIP(UDP) 15060 ---> 192.168.1.254 RTP(UDP) 12000 – 12031 ---> 192.168.1.254 PBX Extension SIP Extension Settings from Remote Office router (DHCP); IP:192.168.0.1 Netmask:255.255.255.0 DGW:192.168.0.254 Manual settings * SIP Server 61.xxx.xxxx.xxx : 15060 *NB: IP addresses shown here are an example. In deployment, these addresses must be changed to the Global IP addresses provided by the ISP.
Session Border Controller 3.4 Session Border Controller (SBC) – What is does(1). The example below shows what the SBC device does to allow NAT Traversal. MPR:192.168.1.101 DSP:192.168.1.102 (RTP) Netmask:255.255.255.0 DGW:192.168.1.1 SIP Extension Server:192.168.1.101:15060 LAN *WAN1: 61.xxx.xxx.xxx (Provided by ISP) LAN1:192.168.1.1 WAN Internet LAN1:192.168.1.254 *WAN2:210.xxx.xxx.xxxx (Provided by ISP) EXT201 LAN2:192.168.0.254 Mediatrix SBC EXT301 The typical problem for this scenario is that the necessary LAN IP addresses are embedded into the VoIP packet. The Routers add their own Global (WAN) IP addresses with the result that the audio is not delivered correctly between the extensions(1-way voice etc). The SBC and PBX record the communication path and the SBC adds information to the packet so that the audio can be routed correctly. In this way, the problem scenario can be overcome. Settings from Remote Office router (DHCP); IP:192.168.0.1 Netmask:255.255.255.0 DGW:192.168.0.254 Manual settings * SIP Server 61.xxx.xxx.xxx : 15060
Session Border Controller 3.4 Session Border Controller (SBC) – What is does(2). The packet capture below illustrates how the SIP Message Header is used to route the call. Remote Router HO SBC HO EXT201 NS1000 1. Call arrives from Remote side, but has both Global and local IP Address. 2. SBC adds ‘VIA’ information and starts ‘managing’ the call. 3. NS1000 can route call correctly based on local IP Address NB: This is an EXAMPLE – actual process is more complex!

Session Border Controller 3.6 Session Border Controller (SBC) – UT Programming(1) – Remote Extension Deployment. There are TWO methods available for UT Deployment; Register the Remote UT Extension locally at the NS1000 site and then move the extension to the remote location. When the UT phone is registered at the NS1000 site, the UT phone downloads its configuration (including SBC and WAN settings etc) will be downloaded directly from the NS1000. 2. Transfer the Configuration file stored on the NS1000 to the UT Phone which is ALREADY located at the remote site. The two methods are described in the following slides;
Session Border Controller 3.6 Session Border Controller (SBC) – UT Programming(2) – Remote Extension Deployment. Method 1 – Local Registration to NS1000 Register desired the UT Extension to the NS1000, using a V-UTEXT32 card. 2. After configuring the UT Settings described in the previous slides, ‘APPLY’ the settings and then RESET the UT Phone (Either by IP RESET on the Phone display or by Power OFF/ON). The UT will then restart and download the updated configuration from the NS1000. 3. The UT Phone will display; 4. The UT Phone can now be transferred to the Remote Site and connected to the Local Router. When Connected, the UT Phone will display (Example) Connection Error (90002) Check Server and Set it. 29 OCT 12:00 SUN 351

Session Border Controller 3.9 Session Border Controller (SBC) – Head Office Router Programming(2). Troubleshooting (1): There are two common problems associated with Perimeter Router configuration; 1. Denial Of Service (DOS) Attacks (Also known as FLOOD attacks) What happens, is that the attacker sends many REGISTER requests, and the PBX gets tied-up responding with “404 – Not Found” messages. Countermeasure: Do not use 5060 as the standard SIP receiving port (Use a less well known number.
Session Border Controller 3.9 Session Border Controller (SBC) – Head Office Router Programming(2). Troubleshooting (2): 2. One-Way or No Audio Problems Symptom: One-way voice or no voice can occur after several calls. Reason: The RTP ports are not set correctly in the Port forwarding settings in the Router. Countermeasure: This setting should be applied on SBC port settings (Use 35000 to 35999). It is also required that these ports should be port-forwarded to the SBC by the main Router.
Session Border Controller 3.10 Session Border Controller (SBC) – SBC Programming(1). The following items need to be set in the Mediatrix SBC: PBX IP address, SIP EXT Port No. SBC LAN IP Address/Subnet mask Main Router LAN IP Address/WAN IP Address Port Setting SIP/RTP Firewall allow SIP/RTP packet NB: All documents are available online on the Mediatrix Download Portal at https://support.mediatrix.com/DownloadPlus/Download.asp. Or on the web site at the following link http://www.mediatrix.com/en/sessionbordercontroller Under the documentation tab.
Session Border Controller 3.10 Session Border Controller (SBC) – SBC Programming(2). The SBC (LAN Only Mode) is used as a ‘device on a stick’. Only one port (ET1 ~ ET4) needs to be connected to the LAN. The ET0/WAN Port is NOT used and should not be connected to the Network. (The ET0/WAN port is ‘virtualised’ and used internally by the SBC when configured in LAN SIParator mode.) NB: Do not Connect the ET0/WAN port at any time!
Session Border Controller 3.10 Session Border Controller (SBC) – SBC Programming(3). The SBC needs to be configuration needs to be changed from its default mode to LAN SIParator mode. Due to the programming limitations of the device, the following sequence must be used Login to the SBC using the default IP Address (192.168.0.1) Change the LAN Port IP-Address from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.20.1 (Example) The reason for this is because the SBC will not allow it’s ET0/WAN port to share the same IP Address range as its LAN ports (ET1~4), so we must change the LAN port setting before proceeding with the configuration. 3. Set the SBC to LAN SIParator Mode (Ports ET1~ET4 will now share the same IP-Address as set for ET0/WAN – example 192.168.0.1) 4. The necessary SIP configuration can now be set
