Chapter 4: Securing your Scopia Elite MCU

There are several ways of securing your MCU:
• You can secure the connection between the MCU and Equinox Management via TLS.
• You can secure the MCU by enabling or disabling remote management with the SSH, FTP,
ICMP (ping) protocols.
• Using the MCU dual-NIC feature, you can enhance security by placing management traffic on a
separate subnet from media and signaling traffic.
Important:
Using encryption is subject to local regulation. In some countries it is restricted or limited for
usage. For more information, consult your local reseller.

Securing MCU and Equinox Management Connection with
TLS
TLS is a standard method of authentication and encryption of SIP application signalling, using
public-key cryptographic system. To allow a secure connection between the MCU and Equinox
Management, the SIP server must be configured to support TLS, and a TLS certificate must be
uploaded to the MCU, to provide TLS public and private keys for an encrypted network
connection.
