Network security

Firewall configuration for SRG is the same as for the BCM50 and is detailed in the Networking
Configuration Guide
(NN40020-603). Firewalls cannot be configured to allow VoIP pass through.
Instead, the SRG supports IPsec tunnels to provide VoIP pass through. IPsec tunnels are also
covered in the Networking Configuration Guide (NN40020-603).

VoIP trunking configuration

When the SRG is operating in normal mode, connectivity to the main office call server is over
VoIP trunks. An SRG can support up to 60 VoIP trunks.

Configuring VoIP trunks has three components:

Fallback configuration

Gatekeeper routing

Fallback configuration

For SRG operation, fallback and gatekeeper configuration is common to all VoIP trunks. Fallback
is determined in conjunction with the QoS settings (see

To enter the QoS settings for VoIP trunks

on page 71).

Note: For calls originating from IP Sets, configure the payload size. Access the IP Sets configuration
panel in Element Manager (Configuration > Resources > IP Sets > IP Terminal Global Settings.
Change the Payload Size to 20ms.

To enable fallback

1

Access the IP Trunks configuration panel in Element Manager (Configuration > Resources >
Telephony Resources > Modules
panel > Module type column) and then select IP Trunks.

2

On the Details for Module panel, select the H323 Settings tab or the SIP Settings tab.

3

On the Telephony Settings subpanel, locate the Fallback to circuit-switched field and use the
list to:

a

select Enabled-All if you want calls to be able to fallback to PSTN trunks if connectivity
to the main office is lost.

b

select Enabled-TDM if you want all TDM calls to be able to fallback to PSTN trunks if
connectivity to the main office is lost.

c

select Disabled if fallback is not required.
