User's Manual 1. Overview

1 Overview The Mediant 500 Enterprise Session Border Controller (E-SBC), hereafter referred to as the device, is a member of AudioCodes family of E-SBCs, enabling connectivity and security between small medium businesses (SMB) and service providers' VoIP networks. The device provides SBC functionality as well as voice-over-IP (VoIP) media gateway functionality. The device offers enhanced dialing plans and voice routing capabilities along with SIP-to-SIP mediation, allowing enterprises to implement SIP Trunking services (IP-to-IP call routing) and IP-based Unified Communications, as well as flexible PSTN and legacy PBX connectivity. The device is designed as a secured VoIP platform. A fully featured enterprise-class SBC provides a secured voice network deployment based on a Back-to-Back User Agent (B2BUA) implementation. The SBC functionality provides perimeter defense for protecting the enterprise from malicious VoIP attacks; mediation for allowing the connection of any PBX and/or IP PBX to any service provider; and service assurance for service quality and manageability. The device offers call "survivability" solutions using its Stand Alone Survivability (SAS) or Cloud Resilience Package (CRP) applications, ensuring service continuity to enterprises served by a centralized SIP-based IP-Centrex server or branch offices of distributed enterprises. Call survivability enables internal office communication between SIP clients in the case of disconnection from the centralized SIP IP-Centrex server or IP-PBX. The device supports 1+1 High Availability when deployed with two devices, each connected to a different network (in the same subnet). In case of a network failure in one network, a switch over of traffic to the standby device occurs. The device supports the following interfaces: Four Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) LAN ports Single E1/T1 port interface over a copper wire pair, supporting Transparent, CAS and

ISDN protocols. The device supports various ISDN PRI protocols such as EuroISDN, North American NI-2, Lucent 4/5ESS, Nortel DMS-100 and others. It also supports different variants of CAS protocols for E1 and T1 spans, including MFC R2, E&M immediate start, E&M delay dial / start, loop start and ground start

Two USB ports for optional, USB storage services Serial console port (RJ-45) for device management The device supports local and remote management through various management platforms such as an HTTP/S-based Web server, a command-line interface (CLI), SNMP, and serial (RS-232).

Note: For maximum call capacity figures, see ''SBC and DSP Channel Capacity'' on page 889.

Part I Getting Started with Initial Connectivity


User's Manual 2. Introduction

2 Introduction This part describes how to initially access the device's management interface and change its default IP address to correspond with your networking scheme.


Mediant 500 E-SBC



User's Manual 3. Default OAMP IP Address

3 Default OAMP IP Address The device is shipped with a factory default IP address for operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAMP), through its VoIP LAN interface. You can use this address to initially access the device from any of its management tools (embedded Web server, EMS, or Telnet/SSH). You can also access the device through the console CLI, by connecting the device's serial (RS-232) port to a PC. The table below lists the device's default IP address.

User's Manual 4. Configuring VoIP LAN Interface for OAMP

4 Configuring VoIP LAN Interface for OAMP You can change the IP address of the VoIP-LAN interface for OAMP, using any of the following methods: Embedded HTTP/S-based Web server - see ''Web Interface'' on page 29 Embedded command line interface (CLI) - see ''CLI'' on page 31

4.1 Web Interface The following procedure describes how to change the IP address of the OAMP on the VoIP-LAN interface, using the Web-based management tool (Web interface). The default IP address is used to initially access the device.

To configure the VoIP-LAN IP Address for OAMP, using the Web interface: 1. Connect Port 1 (left-most LAN port) located on the front panel directly to the network

interface of your computer, using a straight-through Ethernet cable.

2. Change the IP address and subnet mask of your computer to correspond with the

default OAMP IP address and subnet mask of the device. 3. Access the Web interface:

a. On your computer, start a Web browser and in the URL address field, enter the default IP address of the device; the Web interface's Web Login screen appears:

Figure 4-1: Web Login Screen

b. In the 'Username' and 'Password' fields, enter the case-sensitive, default login

username ("Admin") and password ("Admin"). c. Click Login.


Mediant 500 E-SBC

4. Open the Physical Ports Settings page (Configuration tab > VoIP menu > Network > Physical Ports Table) and then configure the device's physical Ethernet port-pair (group) that you want to later assign to the OAMP interface. For more information, see Configuring Physical Ethernet Ports on page 107.

5. Open the Interface Table page (Configuration tab > VoIP menu > Network > IP Interfaces Table).

6. Select the 'Index' radio button corresponding to the OAMP + Media + Control

application type, and then click Edit. 7. Change the IP address to correspond with your network IP addressing scheme, for

example: IP Address: 10.8.6.86 Prefix Length: 24 (for 255.255.255.0) Gateway: 10.8.6.85 Underlying Device: Select the Ethernet Device (VLAN and associated Ethernet

port group) for OAMP 8. Click Submit. 9. Save your settings by resetting the device with a flash burn (see ''Resetting the

Device'' on page 527). 10. Disconnect the device from the PC and cable the device to your network. You can

now access the management interface using the new OAMP IP address.

Note: When you complete the above procedure, change your PC's IP address to correspond with your network requirements.


User's Manual 4. Configuring VoIP LAN Interface for OAMP

4.2 CLI This procedure describes how to configure the VoIP-LAN IP address for OAMP using the device's CLI. The procedure uses the regular CLI commands. Alternatively, you can use the CLI Wizard utility to set up your device with the initial OAMP settings. The utility provides a fast-and-easy method for initial configuration of the device through CLI. For more information, refer to the CLI Wizard User's Guide.

To configure the OAMP IP address in the CLI: 1. Connect the RS-232 port of the device to the serial communication port on your

computer. For more information, refer to the Hardware Installation Manual.

2. Establish serial communication with the device using a terminal emulator program

such as HyperTerminal, with the following communication port settings: Baud Rate: 115,200 bps Data Bits: 8 Parity: None Stop Bits: 1 Flow Control: None

3. At the CLI prompt, type the username (default is "Admin" - case sensitive): Username: Admin

4. At the prompt, type the password (default is "Admin" - case sensitive): Password: Admin

5. At the prompt, type the following: enable

6. At the prompt, type the password again: Password: Admin

7. Access the VoIP configuration mode: # configure voip

8. Access the Interface table: (config-voip)# interface network-if 0


Mediant 500 E-SBC

9. Configure the IP address: (network-if-0)# ip-address

10. Configure the prefix length: (network-if-0)# prefix-length
