Oracle Communications Operations Monitor (OCOM)

Use the following procedure to configure OCOM:

  1. From superuser mode, use the following ACLI sequence to access comm-monitor configuration mode. From comm-monitor mode, you establish a connection between the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller, acting as a exporter of protocol message traffic and related data, and an OCOM Mediation Engine, acting as an information collector.
    ACMEPACKET# configure terminal
    ACMEPACKET(configure)# system
    ACMEPACKET(system)# system-config
    ACMEPACKET(system-config)# comm-monitor
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#
  2. Use the state parameter to enable or disable communication monitoring.

    Communication monitoring is disabled by default.

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# state enabled
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#
  3. Use the sbc-group-id parameter to assign an integer value to the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller, in its role as an information exporter.

    Retain the default value (0) or assign another integer value.

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# sbc-group-id 5
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#
  4. If the network interface specified in Step 8 is a media interface, you can optionally use TLS to encrypt the exporter/collector connection.

    To enable TLS encryption, use the tls-profile parameter to identify a TLS profile to be assigned to the network interface. The absence of an assigned TLS profile (the default state) results in unencrypted transmission.

    Refer to TLS Profile Configuration for configuration details.

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# tls-profile commMonitor
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#
  5. Use the qos-enable parameter to enable or disable to export of RTP, SRTP, and QOS data flow information.
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# qos-enable enabled
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#
  6. Use the monitor-collector parameter to move to monitor-collector configuration mode.

    While in this mode you identify an OCOM Mediation Engine collector by IP address and port number.

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# monitor-collector
    ACMEPACKET(monitor-collector)#
  7. Use the address and port parameters to specify the IP address and port number monitored by an OCOM Mediation Engine for incoming IPFIX traffic.
    Enter an IPv4 address and a port number with values either 4739 (unsecured) or 4740 (secured). The default value for the port is 4739.
    ACMEPACKET(monitor-collector)# address 172.30.101.239
    ACMEPACKET(monitor-collector)# port 4739
    ACMEPACKET(monitor-collector)#
  8. Use the network-interface parameter to specify the network interface that supports the TCP connection between the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller to the OCOM Mediation Engine.

    To specify the wancom0 management interface:

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# network-interface wancom0:0
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#

    To specify a media interface:

    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)# network-interface m01
    ACMEPACKET(comm-monitor)#

    Note:

    If configuring with a media interface, that interface must belong to a configured realm.
  9. Use done and exit to return to comm-monitor configuration mode.
  10. Use done, exit, and verify-config to complete configuration.
  11. Repeat Steps 1 through 10 to configure additional as required.
