Adding Service Provider Secondary (Redundant) SBC To Current Configuration

 

Hi,

 

We requested a second (Redundancy) SBC on our service provider platform. We need to be able to forward traffic to this redundant device if the primary goes down. The service provider issued different FQDN and IP's for interoperability to this appliance. I'm seeking advice on how to add this to our current configuration. We do have an HMR associated to the active Realm. I think the steps below is all I need to do to add this secondary device? Can someone confirm this?

 

1. Create a new session-agent for the sevice provider redundant SBC (Signaling IP) and associate to appropriate realm.
