network-interface
The network-interface element creates and configures a logical network interface.
Note:
This configuration element is not RTC supported.Parameters
- name
- Enter the name of the physical interface with which this network-interface element is linked. Network-interface elements that correspond to phy-interface elements with an operation type of Control or Maintenance must start with “wancom.”
- sub-port-id
- Enter the identification of a specific virtual interface in a physical interface (e.g., a VLAN tag). A value of 0 indicates that this element is not using a virtual interface. The sub-port-id field value is only required if the operation type is Media.
- Default: 0
- Values: Min: 0 | Max: 4095
- description
- Enter a brief description of this network interface.
- hostname
- Enter the hostname of this network interface.
This is an optional entry that must follow FQDN Format or IP Address
Format.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- ip-address
- Enter the IP address of this network
interface. This is a required entry that must follow the IP Address Format.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- pri-utility-addr
- Enter the utility IP address for the primary
HA peer in an HA architecture.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- sec-utility-addr
- Enter the utility IP address for the
secondary Oracle Communications Session Border Controller
peer in an HA architecture.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- netmask
- Enter the netmask portion of the IP address
for this network interface entered in IP address format. The
network-interface element will not function properly unless this field value
is valid.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- gateway
- Enter the gateway this network interface uses
to forward packets. Entries in this field must follow the IP Address Format.
No packets are forwarded if this value is 0.0.0.0.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
Oracle recommends, as a best-practice, that you always configure a gateway for the media interfaces. If the only trigger to learn a gateway or a directly connected endpoint is ingress media packets, then the SBC typically drops initial packets of a first call until the gateway or the endpoint L2 MAC address is resolved.
- sec-gateway
- Enter the gateway to use on the secondary Oracle Communications Session Border Controller in an HA pair. Entries in
this field must follow the IP address format.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- gw-heartbeat
- Access the gateway-heartbeat subelement.
- dns-ip-primary
- Enter the IP address of the primary DNS to be
used for this interface.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- dns-ip-backup1
- Enter the IP address of the first backup DNS
to be used for this interface.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- dns-ip-backup2
- Enter the IP address of the second backup DNS
to be used for this interface.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- dns-domain
- Set the default domain name used to populate incomplete hostnames that do not include a domain. Entries must follow the Name Format.
- dns-timeout
- Enter the total time in seconds you want to
elapse before a query (and its retransmissions) sent to a DNS server
timeout.
- Default: 11
- Values: Min: 1/ Max: 999999999
- dns-max-ttl
- Specifies the maximum DNS time to live value for this network interface.
- Default: 86400 seconds (24 hours)
- minimum: 30
- maximum: 2073600
- add-hip-ip
- Enter a list of IP addresses allowed to
access signaling and maintenance protocol stacks via this front interface
using the HIP feature.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
- remove-hip-ip
- Remove an IP address added using the add-hip-ip parameter.
- add-icmp-ip
- Enter a list of IP addresses from which ICMP traffic can be received and acted upon by a front media interface.
- remove-icmp-ip
- Remove an IP address added using the
add-icmp-ip parameter.
An IPV6 address is valid for this parameter.
Note:
IP address changes to the remove-icmp-ip parameter during traffic hours may impact established calls. - add-snmp-ip
- Enter an IP address from which SNMP traffic can be received and acted upon by a front media interface.
- remove-snmp-ip
- Remove an IP address added using the add-snmp-ip parameter.
- add-ssh-ip
- Enter the IP address from which SSH traffic
can be received and acted upon by a front media interface.
- Default: None
- Values: A valid IPv4 network address
- remove-ssh-ip
- Remove an IP address added using the add-ssh-ip parameter.
- signaling-mtu
- MTU size for packets leaving this interface.
- Default: 0 - When the default value is zero, the network-interface inherits this value from the system configuration (ipv6-signaling-mtu and ipv4-signaling-mtu).
- Values:
- IPv4: <0, 576-4096>
- IPv6: <0, 1280-4096
