Network & Flows

Last Updated : Jul 25, 2019 |

By Network & Flows task pane options, you can view aggregate system information, and manage various device-specific parameters which determine how a particular device will function when deployed in the network. Specifically, you have the ability to define and administer various device-specific protection features such as Message Sequence Analysis (MSA) functionality and protocol scrubber rules, endpoint and session call flows, as well as the ability to manage system logs and control security features.

Network & Flows field descriptions

Name

Description

Network Management

Displays the Network Management screen containing two tabs: Interface and Networks. From the Interface tab you can manage the internal and external IP addresses assigned to a particular Avaya SBC security device. The Networks tab allows you to enable or disable Avaya SBC Ethernet interfaces.

Media Interface

Displays the Media Interface screen which allows you to designate which server and port range will be used for media traffic.

Signaling Interface

Displays the Signaling Interface screen which allows you to designate which server and port range will be used for SIP signaling traffic (TCP, UDP, and TLS).

End Point Flows

Displays the Subscriber Flows and Server Flows tabs in the Content Area which allow you to determine how calls will be handled by Avaya SBC.

These flow descriptions determine which security actions will be applied to the message packets identified by these combined policies. The End Point Flows determine the End Point Policy Group, which includes a security rule set (domain policy).

Session Flows

Displays the Session Flows screen, which contains a prioritized list of all currently defined media Session Flows. The Session Flow dictates what session policy to use.

Advanced Options

Contains Periodic Statistics, Feature Control, Network Options, SIP Options, Port Ranges, RTCP Monitoring, HA Pair, and Load Monitoring tabs.

Note:

The HA Pair tab is not displayed unless an HA pair is configured.
