Formerly known as Integrated Session Border Controller, Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) provides a network-to-network demarcation interface for signaling interworking, media interworking, address and port translations, billing, security, quality of service, call admission control, and bandwidth management.For Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4 and later releases, Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) can operate in two modes or deployment models: unified and distributed. The configuration guide documents the features in the unified mode.

    This chapter provides basic information about the command-line interface (CLI) in Cisco IOS XE software and how you can use some of the CLI features. This document contains the following sections:

    Initially Configuring a Device, page 1-3 Using the CLI, page 1-4 Saving Changes to a Configuration, page 1-13 Additional Information, page 1-14

    For more information about using the CLI, see Part 1: Using the Cisco IOS Command-Line Interface (CLI) of Cisco IOS XE Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.For information about the software documentation set, see the About Cisco IOS XE Software Documentation document.

    Initially Configuring a DeviceInitially configuring a device varies by platform. For information about performing an initial configuration, see the hardware installation documentation that is provided with the original packaging of the product or go to the Product Support area of Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/go/techdocs. After you have performed the initial configuration and connected the device to your network, you can configure the device by using the console port or a remote access method, such as Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH), to access the CLI or by using the configuration method provided on the device, such as Security Device Manager.

    Changing the Default Settings for a Console or AUX Port

    There are only two settings that you can change on a console port or an AUX port: Change the port speed with the config-register 0x command. Changing the port speed is not

    recommended. The well-known default speed is 9600. Change the behavior of the port; for example, by adding a password or changing the timeout value.1-3ent (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    EXEC commands are not saved when the software reboots. Commands that you issue in a configuration

    mode can be saved to the startup configuration. If you save the running configuration to the startup configuration, these commands will execute when the software is rebooted. Global configuration mode is the highest level of configuration mode. From global configuration mode, you can enter a variety of other configuration modes, including protocol-specific modes.ROM monitor mode is a separate mode that is used when the software cannot load properly. If a valid software image is not found when the software boots or if the configuration file is corrupted at startup, the software might enter ROM monitor mode.

    The following examples show how to use the help commands:helpRouter> help

    Help may be requested at any point in a command by entering a question mark '?'. If nothing matches, the help list will be empty and you must backup until entering a '?' shows the available options.

    Two styles of help are provided:

    1. Full help is available when you are ready to enter a command argument (e.g. 'show ?') and describes each possible argument.

    2. Partial help is provided when an abbreviated argument is entered and you want to know what arguments match the input (e.g. 'show pr?'.)

    Understanding Command SyntaxCommand syntax is the format in which a command should be entered in the CLI. Commands include the name of the command, keywords, and arguments. Keywords are alphanumeric strings that are used literally. Arguments are placeholders for values that a user must supply. Keywords and arguments may be required or optional. Specific conventions convey information about syntax and command elements. Table 1-3 describes these conventions.1-8Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    OL-19820-15

  • Chapter 1 Using the Command-Line Interface in Cisco IOS XE Software Using the CLIThe following examples show syntax conventions:Router(config)# ethernet cfm domain ? WORD domain name

    Router(config)# ethernet cfm domain dname ? level

    Router(config)# ethernet cfm domain dname level ? maintenance level number

    Router(config)# ethernet cfm domain dname level 7 ?

    Router(config)# snmp-server file-transfer access-group 10 ? protocol protocol options

    Router(config)# logging host ? Hostname or A.B.C.D IP address of the syslog server ipv6 Configure IPv6 syslog server

    Understanding Enable and Enable Secret PasswordsSome privileged EXEC commands are used for actions that impact the system, and it is recommended that you set a password for these commands to prevent unauthorized use. Two types of passwords, enable (not encrypted) and enable secret (encrypted), can be set. The following commands set these passwords and are issued in global configuration mode:

    Table 1-3 CLI Syntax Conventions

    Symbol/Text Function Notes

    < > (angle brackets) Indicate that the option is an argument.

    Sometimes arguments are displayed without angle brackets.

    A.B.C.D. Indicates that you must enter a dotted decimal IP address.

    Angle brackets (< >) are not always used to indicate that an IP address is an argument.

    WORD (all capital letters) Indicates that you must enter one word.

    Angle brackets (< >) are not always used to indicate that a WORD is an argument.

    LINE (all capital letters) Indicates that you must enter more than one word.

    Angle brackets (< >) are not always used to indicate that a LINE is an argument.

    (carriage return) Indicates the end of the list of available keywords and arguments, and also indicates when keywords and arguments are optional. When is the only option, you have reached the end of the branch or the end of the command if the command has only one branch.

    1-9Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    OL-19820-15

  • Chapter 1 Using the Command-Line Interface in Cisco IOS XE Software Using the CLI

    enable password

    enable secret password

    Using an enable secret password is recommended because it is encrypted and more secure than the enable password. When you use an enable secret password, text is encrypted (unreadable) before it is written to the config.text file. When you use an enable password, the text is written as entered (readable) to the config.text file. Each type of password is case sensitive, can contain from 1 to 25 uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters, and can start with a number. Spaces are also valid password characters; for example, two words is a valid password. Leading spaces are ignored, but trailing spaces are recognized.

    Note Both password commands have numeric keywords that are single integer values. If you choose a number for the first character of your password followed by a space, the system will read the number as if it were the numeric keyword and not as part of your password.

    When both passwords are set, the enable secret password takes precedence over the enable password. To remove a password, use the no form of the commands: no enable password or no enable secret password. For more information about password recovery procedures for Cisco products, see the following:http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1831/products_tech_note09186a00801746e6.shtml

    Using the Command History FeatureThe command history feature saves the commands that you enter during a session in a command history buffer. The default number of commands saved is 10, but the number is configurable within the range of 0 to 256. This command history feature is particularly useful for recalling long or complex commands. To change the number of commands saved in the history buffer for a terminal session, issue the terminal history size command: Router# terminal history size num

    A command history buffer is also available in line configuration mode with the same default and configuration options. To set the command history buffer size for a terminal session in line configuration mode, issue the history command: Router(config-line)# history [size num]

    To recall commands from the history buffer, use the following methods: Press Ctrl-P or the Up Arrow keyRecalls commands beginning with the most recent command.

    Repeat the key sequence to recall successively older commands. Press Ctrl-N or the Down Arrow keyRecalls the most recent commands in the history buffer after

    they have been recalled using Ctrl-P or the Up Arrow key. Repeat the key sequence to recall successively more recent commands.

    Note The arrow keys function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as the VT100. 1-10Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    OL-19820-15

  • Chapter 1 Using the Command-Line Interface in Cisco IOS XE Software Using the CLI

    Issue the show history command in user EXEC or privileged EXEC modeLists the most recent

    commands that you entered. The number of commands that are displayed is determined by the setting of the terminal history size and history commands. The command history feature is enabled by default. To disable this feature for a terminal session, issue the terminal no history command in user EXEC or privileged EXEC mode or the no history command in line configuration mode.

    Abbreviating CommandsTyping a complete command name is not always required for the command to execute. The CLI recognizes an abbreviated command when the abbreviation contains enough characters to uniquely identify the command. For example, the show version command can be abbreviated as sh ver. It cannot be abbreviated as s ver because s could mean show, set, or systat. The sh v abbreviation also is not valid because the show command has vrrp as a keyword in addition to version.

    Using Aliases for CLI CommandsTo save time and the repetition of entering the same command multiple times, you can use a command alias. An alias can be configured to do anything that can be done at the command line, but an alias cannot move between modes, type in passwords, or perform any interactive functions.Table 1-4 shows the default command aliases.

    To create a command alias, issue the alias command in global configuration mode. The syntax of the command is alias mode command-alias original-command. Following are some examples:

    Router(config)# alias exec prt partitionprivileged EXEC mode Router(config)# alias configure sb source-bridgeglobal configuration mode Router(config)# alias interface rl rate-limitinterface configuration mode

    To view both default and user-created aliases, issue the show alias command.For more information about the alias command, see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/fundamentals/command/reference/cf_book.html.

    OL-19820-15

  • Chapter 1 Using the Command-Line Interface in Cisco IOS XE Software Using the CLIUsing the no and default Forms of CommandsMost configuration commands have a no form that is used to reset a command to its default value or to disable a feature or function. For example, the ip routing command is enabled by default. To disable this command, you would issue the no ip routing command. To re-enable IP routing, you would issue the ip routing command. Configuration commands may also have a default form, which returns the command settings to their default values. For commands that are disabled by default, using the default form has the same effect as using the no form of the command. For commands that are enabled by default and have default settings, the default form enables the command and returns the settings to their default values. To see what default commands are available on your system, enter default ? in the appropriate command mode of the command-line interface.The no form is documented in the command pages of Cisco IOS command references. The default form is generally documented in the command pages only when the default form performs a function different than that of the plain and no forms of the command. Command pages often include a Command Default section as well. The Command Default section documents the state of the configuration if the command is not used (for configuration commands) or the outcome of using the command if none of the optional keywords or arguments is specified (for EXEC commands).

    Using the debug CommandA debug command produces extensive output that helps you troubleshoot problems in your network. These commands are available for many features and functions within Cisco IOS XE software. Some debug commands are debug all, debug aaa accounting, and debug mpls packets. To use debug commands during a Telnet session with a device, you must first enter the terminal monitor command. To turn off debugging completely, you must enter the undebug all command. For more information about debug commands, see the Cisco IOS Debug Command Reference at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/debug/command/reference/db_book.html.

    Caution Debugging is a high priority and high CPU utilization process that can render your device unusable. Use debug commands only to troubleshoot specific problems. The best times to run debugging are during periods of low network traffic and when few users are interacting with the network. Debugging during these periods decreases the likelihood that the debug command processing overhead will affect network performance or user access or response times.

    Filtering Output Using Output ModifiersMany commands produce lengthy output that may use several screens to display. You can use output modifiers to filter this output to show only the information that you want to see. The following three output modifiers are available:

    begin regular-expressionDisplays the first line in which a match of the regular expression is found and all lines that follow.

    include regular-expressionDisplays all lines in which a match of the regular expression is found.1-12Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    OL-19820-15

  • Chapter 1 Using the Command-Line Interface in Cisco IOS XE Software Saving Changes to a Configuration

    exclude regular-expressionDisplays all lines except those in which a match of the regular

    expression is found.

    To use one of these output modifiers, type the command followed by the pipe symbol (|), the modifier, and the regular expression that you want to search for or filter. A regular expression is a case-sensitive alphanumeric pattern. It can be a single character or number, a phrase, or a more complex string. The following example illustrates how to filter output of the show interface command to display only lines that include the expression protocol. Router# show interface | include protocol

    FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is upSerial4/0 is up, line protocol is upSerial4/1 is up, line protocol is upSerial4/2 is administratively down, line protocol is downSerial4/3 is administratively down, line protocol is down

    Understanding CLI Error MessagesYou may encounter some error messages while using the CLI. Table 1-5 shows the common CLI error messages.

    For more system error messages, see Cisco IOS XE System Messages.

    Saving Changes to a ConfigurationTo save changes that you made to the configuration of a device, you must issue the copy running-config startup-config command or the copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config command. When you issue these commands, the configuration changes that you made are saved to the startup configuration and saved when the software reloads or power to the device is turned off or interrupted.

    This chapter presents an overview of Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routersits signaling and media functions, unified and distributed deployment models, supported features, and supported MIBs.Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) was formerly known as Integrated Session Border Controller and may be commonly referred to in this document as the session border controller (SBC).

    Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers

    Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) enables direct IP-to-IP interconnect between multiple administrative domains for session-based services providing protocol interworking, security, and admission control and management. Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) is a voice over IP (VoIP) device that sits on the border of a network and controls call admission to that network.Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) protects the interior of the network from excessive call load and malicious traffic. Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) provides additional functions such as media bridging and billing services.Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) is integrated into the Cisco IOS Software and does not require any additional hardware to run.The SBC service includes two functional areas:2-15ent (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

  • Chapter 2 Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Overview Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers

    Media SBC functionManaged by the data border element (DBE), controls access of media packets

    to the network, provides differentiated services and quality of service (QoS) for different media streams, and prevents service theft. It does this by acting as a real-time transport protocol (RTP) proxy.

    For Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4, Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) can operate in two modes or deployment models:

    UnifiedIn the unified model, both the SBE and DBE logical entities co-exist on the same network element. In this model, the signaling entity controls the media local to the router. Simply put, the SBE handles the SIP and H.323 packets and the DBE handles the RTP and RTCP packets.

    DistributedIn the distributed model, the SBE and the DBE entities reside on two different network elements. Logically, each of the SBE entities controls multiple DBE elements, and each DBE could be controlled by multiple SBE entities. The SBE interacts with the DBE entities using a session controller interface (SCI). The SCI interface supports the H.248 protocol.In this model, the bearer always flows through the DBE, and the SBE participates only in the signaling flow. This model is typically used in conjunction with a third-party SBE that supports the DBE H.248 profile.

    Note It is important to note that the DBE configuration is still required when running in the unified model because the DBE configuration provides the information necessary for the RTP media to flow.

    Note For Cisco IOS XE Release 2.3 and earlier, the SBC supports only DBEs in the distributed model.2-16Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

    Prerequisites

    In the unified mode, you must configure the SBE before the DBE.C H A P T E R 3Configuring Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition)

    This chapter describes how to configure the data border element (DBE) and signaling border element (SBE) for Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition). Note that the DBE configuration is still required when running in the unified model because the DBE configuration provides the information necessary for the RTP media to flow.Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) was formerly known as Integrated Session Border Controller and may be commonly referred to in this document as the session border controller (SBC).For a complete description of the commands used in this chapter, refer to the Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Command Reference: Unified Model at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/sbc/command/reference/sbcu_book.htmlFor information about all Cisco IOS commands, use the Command Lookup Tool athttp://tools.cisco.com/Support/CLILookup or a Cisco IOS master commands list.

    Configuring Unified ModelThis section contains the following information on configuring the unified model:

    Configuring SBE in the Unified Model, page 3-21 Memory Alerting, page 3-30 Configuring Memory Alerting, page 3-31 Configuring DBE in the Unified Model, page 3-32 Image Upgrade Procedure for Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition), page 3-34

    Configuring SBE in the Unified ModelThis section describes how to configure a SBE on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers: 3-21ent (SP Edition) Configuration Guide: Unified Model

  • Chapter 3 Configuring Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuring Unified Model

    You need to configure blacklisting to override default blacklisting thresholds when the SBE is

    configured and before you start using Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition). See the Dynamic Blacklisting Behavior, page -311 for configuration information.

    When running Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) with 500 or more active calls, configure the huge buffer size to 65535 bytes with the buffer huge size 65535 command. The increased buffer size is required because by default Cisco IOS software sets the huge buffer size to be 18084 bytes, which is not large enough for audit responses when there are more than 500 active calls.

    Configuration Tip

    We strongly recommend you use different addresses for signaling and media addresses to avoid scenarios where reservation for media port range can prevent call signaling packets from reaching the route processor (RP). In this scenario, if the SBC attempts to receive a call using a port that has been reserved by the SBC for media, packets will be dropped, rather than forwarded to the RP. This type of scenario is more likely to occur for H.323 and SIP calls using TCP transport.

  • Chapter 3 Configuring Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuring Unified ModelModifying Existing Call Policy Set

    A policy set is a group of policies that can be active on Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) at any one time. If a policy set is active, then Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) uses the rules defined within it to apply policy to events. Routing and number analysis are configured in a call policy set.

    Only one policy set of each type can be active at any given time. You can switch the active policy set at any time. You cannot modify the currently active policy set without deactivating it. However you can modify policy sets that are not active. A policy set can be deleted, provided that it is not the active policy set.

    To modify an existing call policy set, you must first deactivate it with the no active call-policy-set command and then execute a no complete command.The following task deactivates the active call-policy-set.

  • Chapter 3 Configuring Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) Configuring Unified ModelMemory AlertingThe Memory Alerting feature enables you to configure the number of active calls on an SBC based on the amount of free memory available on the device.For example, an ASR1000 may support 5000 maximum active calls and support other features as well. In a scenario where the upper limit to the active calls is not configured, and other non-SBC features are also in use, there is a possibility that the SBC might use the system memory to a point that even the basic functions of the ASR1000 gets affected due to memory fragmentation or lack of memory.The Memory Alerting feature enables you to configure thresholds and drop rates for various memory availability levels. This prevents the SBC from consuming memory for new calls or call registrations.The Memory Alerting feature consists of four levels, Minor, Major, Critical, and Halt. The levels are defined based on the amount of processor memory available at a given time. Processor memory is checked after every ten new calls to determine the memory available. You can configure the percentage of memory available to trigger each level, and define the number of calls to be rejected (0 to 10) from a set of 10 calls. Table 3-1 represents the default percentages and drop rates.

    Step 4 no active-call-policy-set policy-set-id

    Example:Router(config-sbc-sbe)# no active-call-policy-set 1

    Deactivates the active routing policy set within an SBE entity.

    Step 5 active-call-policy-set policy-set-id

    Example:Router(config-sbc-sbe)# active-call-policy-set 6

    Activates the new active routing policy set that is replacing the prior active routing policy set.
