This release provides the following general SBC configuration enhancements:

•In Release 6.0, the IP address of the WAN interface had to be defined in the Data configuration section, and then once defined, it had to be assigned to the SIP application layer for the SBC configuration (using the WANIPAddress parameter). Now, in Release 6.2, there is no need to assign the WAN IP address in the SBC configuration section; it is acquired automatically from the Data section.

•In Release 6.0, the user had to configure port forwarding in the Data section for all SIP interfaces and Media Realms relating to the WAN interface. Now, in Release 6.2, port forwarding for the SIP interfaces and Media Realms are configured automatically.

•In Release 6.0, a “Static NAT” had to be configured in the Data section for all SIP interfaces and Media Realms relating to the WAN interface. Now, in Release 6.2, the Static NAT for SIP interfaces and Media Realms are configured automatically.

•In Release 6.0, it was forbidden to use the same port range for the WAN and LAN interfaces. For instance, the user couldn’t assign two SIP interfaces, one for LAN and one for WAN, using the same port (i.e. 5060). Now, in Release 6.2, this limitation no longer applies and these interfaces can be assigned the same ports.

•In Release 6.2, more than one VLAN is available on the WAN interface - one for media and control, and several VLANs for data. The user is required to choose the VLAN assigned to media and control. Note that it's not backward compatiable and the user MUST specify the WAN VLAN in the Multiple Interface page.

•To facilitate SBC configuration, Release 6.2 now provides a new “master” page - the new SRD page. This page allows the user to configure a new SRD and its parameters as well as assign SIP interfaces to the SRD. In addition, this page displays (read-only) all the IP Groups and Proxy Sets associated with the SRD.
