Configure General System Identification

The Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller (ESBC) primarily uses global system identification to identify itself to other systems and for general identification purposes.

You must specify the identification parameters for the ESBC. The first three parameters are used for informational purposes. The gateway parameter specifies the egress gateway for traffic without an explicit destination. The application of the ESBC determines the configuration of the gateway parameter.

Set the following parameters to configure the general system identification information:

1. Access the system-config configuration element.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
   ORACLE(configure)# system
   ORACLE(system)# system-config
   ORACLE(system-config)# 

2. In system-config, do the following:
   • hostname—Set the primary hostname used to identify the system.
   • description—Set a textual description of the system.
   • location—Set a location description field for the system. For example, you might include the site name and address of the location where the system chassis is located.
   • default-gateway—Set the default gateway for the ESBC.
3. Type done to save your configuration.
