Parameter Description
b. If there is no Account in the Accounts table for
the Served IP Group and Serving IP Group (i.e.,
the IP Group you are now configuring), the
device uses the username and password con-
figured for this IP Group in the IP Groups table
('Username' and 'Password' parameters).
c. Global username and password parameters
(only if authenticating a Server-type IP Group).
d. User Information file.
e. Sends a request to users requesting credentials
(only if authenticating a User-type IP Group).
■ [2] SBC as Server = The device acts as an
Authentication server:
✔ Authenticates SIP clients. This is applicable
only to User-type IP Groups. The device
authenticates incoming SIP requests from users
belonging to this IP Group. The device
authenticates all the users, using the username
and password configured in the IP Group's
'Username' and 'Password' parameters.
However, if a user appears in the User
Information table and which is configured with a
username and password, then the device
authenticates the user with the credentials in the
User Information table (see Configuring SBC
User Information on page477). If you have not
configured any username and password, and the
SBCServerAuthMode parameter is configured to
0 (default), the device rejects the incoming SIP
request.
✔ Authenticates SIP servers. This is applicable
only to Server-type IP Groups.
'Authentication Method List'
authentication-method-
list
[IPGroup_MethodList]
Defines SIP methods received from the IP Group that
must be challenged by the device when the device acts
as an Authentication server. If no methods are
configured, the device doesn't challenge any methods.
By default, no value is defined. To define multiple SIP
methods, use the backslash (\) to separate each method
(e.g., INVITE\REGISTER). To authenticate only setup
INVITE requests (and not re-INVITE requests),
configure the parameter to "setup-invite" (without the
quotes).
Note: The parameter is applicable only if the
'Authentication Mode' parameter is set to SBC as
Server.
'SBC Server Authentication'
sbc-server-auth-type
Defines the authentication method when the device, as
an Authentication server, authenticates SIP requests
from the IP Group.
