CHAPTER 41 SBC Configuration Wizard
● One port: LAN only: The device connects to the Enterprise LAN (typically, a switch)
through a single physical network link (interface). All SIP entities (IP PBX and users)
connect to the same LAN. Note that this option is applicable to all applications (see Step
1), except SIP Trunk.

System Page

The System wizard page configures the device's basic system settings, including management
interface protocol, date and time, and syslog.
➢
To configure system settings:
1. Configure the protocol for accessing the management interfaces:
● 'Web Interface': Select the type of Web interface protocol (HTTP or HTTPS).
● 'CLI Interface': Select the type of CLI protocol (Disabled, Telnet, SSH).
2. (Optional) Enable Syslog by selecting the 'Enable Syslog' check box, and then in the 'Syslog
IP' field, configuring the Syslog server's IP address. Note that if you enable Syslog, the device
generates verbose logs (debug level 5), which adversely affects performance. For more
information on Syslog, see
3. Configure the time and date:
● 'Time Zone': Select the GMT time zone in which the device is located.
● 'Primary NTP Server' and 'Secondary NTP Server': Configure the IP address (or
hostname) of the primary (and optionally, secondary) NTP server in your network. The
NTP server synchronizes the time of the device. This is mandatory when the IP PBX or
ITSP uses a TLS connection, as correct time is required for certificate validation.
For more information on configuring date and time, see
4. (Optional) Configure a local DNS table, which allows the device to resolve domain names
(hostnames) using a locally defined address resolution table. This may be needed when your
setup lacks a DNS server and the IP PBX or ITSP require the use of hostnames instead of IP
addresses. Select the 'Apply local DNS' check box, and then configure the following
parameters:
● 'Domain Name': Domain name to resolve into an IP address.
