Perimeta SBC & TCP
by dsarvai＠dscicorp.com Dec. 17, 2015

Dec. 17, 2015

Group: I am trying to complete a conversion from Acme Packet/Oracle SBC to Metaswitch Perimeta SBC. We found late during the cutover process that Polycom/Metaswitch hasn?t implemented a common TCP strategy to keep firewall TCP sessions/connections alive. Has anyone in the group successfully implemented a TCP strategy and if so, am I missing anything? With the ACME topology, all phones do the following regardless of protocol to maintain pinholes through firewalls: 1 SEC Phone -> Register -> Firewall -> SBC -> Register -> Broadsoft 1 SEC Phone <- Register (expire 60 Seconds) <- Firewall <- SBC <- Register (Expire 1 Hour) <- Broadsoft 60 SEC Phone -> Register -> Firewall -> SBC 60 SEC Phone <- Register (expire 60 Seconds) <- Firewall <- SBC Polycom: Requires use to frequent SIP registration (maintained by Perimeta) to keep SIP pinholes through firewalls alive. Metaswtich: Requires TCP clients (Polycom) to maintain pinholes using native TCP keepalive syn/ack messages. Polycom?s implementation of ?TCP keepalives? is only applicable if the phone is using TLS. There is no such setting for non-tls TCP based traffic. So the phone will establish a TCP connection to the SBC, and then site dormant if no registration/call/subscription messages traverse. The firewall will close its ports, and the phone will lose connectivity. Metaswitch has a fast-nat feature, which is used to shield switches from UDP based registrations. When enabled, fast-nat modifies the endpoint expire timer to allow the endpoint to re-register (keeping the firewall session alive). For UDP, this works correctly, and the SBC responds to the endpoint with a 200OK. But for TCP, the SBC passes the re-registration attempt back to the switch. TCP Metaswitch Example with fast-nat: 1 SEC Phone -> Register-> Firewall -> SBC -> Register -> Broadsoft 1 SEC Phone <- Register (expire 60 Seconds) <- Firewall <- SBC <- Register (Expire 1 Hour) <- Broadsoft 60 SEC Phone -> Register-> Firewall -> SBC -> Register -> Broadsoft 60 SEC Phone <- Register (expire 60 Seconds) <- Firewall <- SBC <- Register (Expire 1 Hour) <- Broadsoft My question to the group, is has anyone implemented TCP based registration using Perimeta and Broadsoft?

BellSouth subscribers have been having issues connecting to some of our numbers in Florida. I have made some routing adjustments and want to retest, however I don't have a BellSouth line and haven't been able to get a hold of the original callers having the issue. Anyone on list have a Bell South line that would be willing to place a handful of calls to the below test numbers? 19545192486 19545192496 19545192494 They should connect to caller-ID read back and echo line. If you're able to place some calls, let me know your results. -- JUSTIN GROW OPERATIONS MANAGER <https://www.flowroute.com> O: +1.206.641.8038 jgrow at flowroute.com

Upcoming Fees for Text Enabled Telephone Numbers (Bandwidth.com)
by beckman＠angryox.com Dec. 15, 2015

Dec. 15, 2015

So I got this today from Bandwidth.com. A quick Google search yields no announcements or news that I can see. A call to Bandwidth got me zero information about how much this new "fee" will be on each number. Anybody have any more in-depth information about this? Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2015 14:43:24 Subject: Upcoming Fees for Text Enabled Telephone Numbers Valued Bandwidth SMS / Messaging Customers, We want to take this opportunity to inform you of some changes taking place in the SMS messaging industry. These changes will impact the fees associated with your account. The messaging industry is implementing a new monthly subscription fee for each text-enabled number. These fees will be issued by central registries (NetNumber and Somos (formerly SMS/800)) to which carriers and messaging providers (including Bandwidth) send records for message routing purposes. We anticipate that these central registries will begin invoicing Bandwidth for these monthly fees as soon as January 2016. Bandwidth is developing tools (GUI and API) to empower our customers to manage these costs by enabling or disabling messaging based upon individual telephone numbers. When Bandwidth deploys these tools, we will also begin to apply the appropriate monthly fee associated with messaging services. In preparation for these changes, please contact Bandwidth at xxx-xxx-xxxx by 11/20/2015, so we can provide you additional information and applicable paperwork, if any, for this new service. Thank you for your business,Bandwidth --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Beckman Internet Guy beckman at angryox.com http://www.angryox.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

List URI BLF Config Unique?
by colton.conor＠gmail.com Dec. 15, 2015

Dec. 15, 2015

Is the way Broadsoft implements Busy Lamp Field (BLF) with a list URI unique only to Broadsoft? I believe I am talking about Enhance BLF. In the configuration of BLF on a Polycom phone using Broadsoft there is a Broadsoft List URI field. The same is true with Yealink, Gigaset, Cisco, and other phones. Here is a configure guide for a Polycom 4.3.2 Busy Lamp Field Configuration http://community.polycom.com/polycom/attachments/polycom/VoIP/8977/1/Partne… Here is the config guide for a Yealink with screenshots of what the Broadsoft screens look like http://www.yealink.com/Upload/UCOne/features/Quick_Setup_BLF_List_on_Yealin… On other platforms, freeswith for example, enhanced BLF is not configured with a list. Instead, each line you want to monitor, needs to be added in the config file. The phone then has to be rebooted, and the new config file has to be loaded. Here is what the freeswitch wiki shows: Enhanced BLF provides ringing indication and directed call pick-up capability. Once a productivity license has been installed, the BLF configuration can be added to the phone1.cfg(resp. in a phone-specific settings file like "${MAC}-settings.cfg). The following should be configured at the phone's file (e.g. phone1.cfg or *MAC-address*-settings.cfg): <attendant attendant.reg="1" attendant.ringType="1" attendant.behaviors.display.spontaneousCallAppearances.normal="1" attendant.behaviors.display.spontaneousCallAppearances.automata="1" attendant.behaviors.display.remoteCallerID.normal="1" attendant.behaviors.display.remoteCallerID.automata="1" attendant.resourceList.1.type="automata" and for each user you want to watch: attendant.resourceList.1.address="8000" attendant.resourceList.1.label="FirstUserName" attendant.resourceList.2.address="8002" attendant.resourceList.2.label="SecondUserName" />
