Configuring an SCTP SIP Port

SIP ports are created as part of the SIP Interface configuration process.

  1. From superuser mode, use the following command sequence to access sip-port configuration mode.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
    ORACLE(configure)# session-router
    ORACLE(session-router)# sip-interface
    ORACLE(sip-interface)# sip-ports
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
  2. Use the address parameter to provide the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the network interface that supports the SIP port.

    This is the primary address of a the local multi-homed SCTP endpoint.

    ORACLE(sip-port)# address 172.16.10.76
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
  3. Retain the default value, 5060 (the well-known SIP port) for the port parameter.
    ORACLE(sip-port)# port 5060
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
  4. Use the transport-protocol parameter to identify the layer 4 protocol.

    Supported values are UDP, TCP, TLS, and SCTP.

    Select SCTP.

    ORACLE(sip-port)# transport-protocol sctp
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
  5. Use the multi-homed-addrs parameter to specify one or more local secondary addresses of the SCTP endpoint.

    Multi-homed addresses must be of the same type (IPv4 or IPv6) as that specified by the address parameter. Like the address parameter, these addresses identify SD network interfaces.

    To specify multiple addresses, bracket an address list with parentheses.

    ORACLE(sip-port)# multi-homed-addrs 182.16.10.76
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
    ORACLE(sip-port)# multi-homed-addrs (182.16.10.76 192.16.10.76 196.15.32.108)
    ORACLE(sip-port)#
  6. Remaining parameters can be safely ignored.
  7. Use done, exit, and verify-config to complete configuration of this SCTP-based SIP port.
    ORACLE(sip-port)# done
    ORACLE(sip-interface)# exit
    ORACLE(session-router)# exit
    ORACLE(configure)# exit
    ORACLE# verify-config

    Verification successful! No errors nor warnings in the configuration
