1.2 Overview
The Sonus SBC 1000 and SBC 2000 session border controllers are designed to use the same application
software, boot image and Survivable Branch Appliance software. They differ in the number of physical Ethernet
connections and processing power but are otherwise viewed from a software standpoint as being the same.
With this in mind, this particular effort was tested with an SBC 1000 but is fully applicable to an SBC 2000.
2 Introduction
This document provides a configuration guide for Sonus SBC 1000 Series (Session Border Controller) when
connecting to a SIP trunk group and a Lync 2013.
The Sonus SBC 1000 and SBC 2000 are Session Border Controllers that connect disparate SIP trunks, SIP
PBXs, and communication applications within an enterprise. The SBC can also be used as a SIP routing and
integration engine.
The Sonus SBC is the point of connection between the SIP trunk group to PSTN and the Lync 2013.
2.1 Audience
This technical document is intended for telecommunication engineers with the purpose of configuring the Sonus
SBC 1000 and SBC 2000 and aspects of the SIP trunk group together with Lync 2013 product. There will be
steps that require navigating the third-party and Sonus SBC Command Line Interface (CLI). Understanding the
basic concepts of IP/Routing and SIP/RTP is also necessary to complete the configuration and for
troubleshooting, if necessary.
This configuration guide is offered as a convenience to Sonus customers. The specifications and information
regarding the product in this guide are subject to change without notice. All statements, information, and
recommendations in this guide are believed to be accurate but are presented without warranty of any kind,
express or implied, and are provided “AS IS”. Users must take full responsibility for the application of the
specifications and information in this guide.

The figure above represents the equipment used for the integration and certification testing. The SBC 1000 is
used to route and facilitate calls between the PSTN and the Lync 2013 system.
The SBC 1000 under test has 2 Ethernet ports configured. The SBC 2000 can have up to 4 physical Ethernet
ports and two physical T1/E1 ports. For more information on Media port deployment options or other network
connectivity queries, refer to the SBC 1000 Network Deployment Guide or contact your local Sales team for
information regarding the Sonus Network Design professional services offerings.

3.1 External Peer Side SBC Configuration
Node Interfaces
The Sonus SBC 1000 allows you to configure the identification information, Physical Data Layer, and Networking
Layer for the Ethernet ports. If you want to change the IP Address, you must configure the associated Logical
Interface or use the Modify Ethernet IP task found under the Tasks tab.
Settings for the Ethernet connection between the Sonus SBC 1000 and the public Internet are shown in the
figures below.

SIP profile
SIP Profiles control the how the Sonus SBC 1000/2000 communicates with SIP devices. They control important
characteristics such as: session timers, SIP header customization, SIP timers, MIME payloads, and option tags.
The default SIP profile used for the SBC 1000 for this testing effort is shown in the following figure.

Media Profile
Media Profiles allow you to specify the individual voice 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.
The Media Profile Used for the SBC 1000 is shown in the following figure and is for reference only.

SIP Server Tables
SIP Server Tables contain information about the SIP devices connected to the Sonus SBC 1000/2000. The
entries in the tables provide information about the IP Addresses, ports, and protocols used to communicate with
each server. The Table Entries also contain links to counters that are useful for troubleshooting.

Signaling Groups
Signaling groups allow telephony channels to be grouped together for the purposes of routing and shared
configuration. They are the entity to which calls are routed, as well as the location from which Call Routes are
selected. They are also the location from which Tone Tables and Action Sets are selected. In the case of SIP,
they specify protocol settings and link to server, media and mapping tables.

Call Routing Table
Call Routing allows calls to be carried between signaling groups, thus allowing calls to be carried between ports,
and between protocols (like ISDN to SIP). Routes are defined by Call Routing Tables, which allow for flexible
configuration of which calls are carried, and how they are translated. These tables are one of the central
connection points of the system, linking Transformation Tables, Message translations, Cause Code Reroute,
Tables, Media Lists and the three types of Signaling Groups (ISDN, SIP and CAS).

Transformation Tables
Transformation Tables facilitate the conversion of names, numbers and other fields when routing a call. They
can, for example, convert a public PSTN number into a private extension number, or into a SIP address (URI).
Every entry in a Call Routing Table requires a Transformation Table, and they are selected from there. In
addition, Transformation tables are configurable as a reusable pool that Action Sets can reference.

Trunk Registration
Windstream requires authentication when establishing a SIP Trunk group to the SBC 1000. The Contact
Registrant Table is used for registration with remote address and specific configuration.The Remote
Authorization table is used for authorization configuration for remote registration.

Node Interfaces
The Sonus SBC 1000 allows you to configure the Identification information, Physical Data Layer, and Networking
Layer for the Ethernet ports. If you want to change the IP Address, you must configure the associated Logical
Interface or use the Modify Ethernet IP task found under the Tasks tab.
Settings for the Ethernet connection between the Sonus SBC 100 and Lync 2013 are shown in the figures below.
