SIP enhancement in R9.1

SEPLOS Keep alive mechanism

The purpose of this feature is to create a supervision of the device in order


to know if it’s state is in/out of service

History Info (RFC 4244)

When a set forwarded (on a SIP voicemail or an external number via SIP
Trunking) is called, this feature allows to add an “History-Info” header in the
“INVITE” message for the SIP External gateways/Voice mails (allowing to
notify the initial called party)

SEPLOS Call Server Information display

A SIP MESSAGE can be sent to the SEPLOS device in order to inform the user
about the CS settings
Forwarding activation, DND, Hunting group belonging …

DECT
Communications Encryption

As of the patch “i1.605.15” (TR+2), it is possible to encrypt the DECT


communications via IBS-NG(1) on Crystal hardware

In the previous releases, theIBS domains could only support “identity” and
“Authentication” modes

From now, the encryption is also availabale

3 available security levels (modes)

Identity (default mode):

The system accepts emission/reception of DECT communications from DECT terminals only
verifying their IPUI-N/IPUI-0

DECT
Communications Encryption (Cont’)

Authentication (based on Identity mode):

An authentication key (AC(1) key) has to be given to the system and terminals
Thanks to a specific algorithm, each device is going to derivate a new (called UAK(2)) key from the AC
one

At each signaling exchange (registration, call request, localization, un-registration), the


system and terminals authenticate the requesting device

The OXE generates a random key and codes it with the UAK key, this new key is called:
DCK(3),
Then it provides the random key to the terminal

The terminal calculates itself the DCK from the received random key et sends it to the OXE

The OXE checks the coherency of the keys – if they correspond, the terminal is
authenticated

Encryption (based on Authentication mode):

The DCK key is also used to encrypt the communication

This key is calculated at the beginning of each communication

CSTA/RSI optimization

Creation of a new type of RSI

The specificity of this RSI is to send Route-End only when call is answered
In case of ringing overflow on RSI, Reroute Request will be sent instead of a new
Route Request

Increase of the “reroute requests”

Up to release 9.0 the maximum number of reroute request is 3

As of Release 9.1 a maximum of 1000 “RE-ROUTE-REQUEST” is possible

This maximum number of RE-ROUTE-REQUEST is manageable via a new parameter


in RSI object (the default value of this new parameter is 3)

Configuration
/Applications/CCD/RSI
Max Number of Reroute Request : 3 (up to 1000)

CSTA/RSI and PCS

Before R9.1 a CSTA client is able to connect on a inactive PCS

From R9.1 a CSTA client connection is

Accepted if the PCS is in active mode

Rejected if the PCS state is inactive

When the PCS is inactive the connection is treated like with a stand-by CPU

Security enhancement (JTIC)

From the release I1 the user account password management in OXE takes JITC
conformance as a minimum level of security

JITC(1) conformance requires the following:


Min length: 8 characters
Min lower case letter: 1
Min upper case letter: 1
Min digits: 2
Min special character: 1

From the release I1 only SSLV3 and TLSv1 are allowed

The SSL support for LOW encryption ciphers is disabled in order to increase
the security level because messages encrypted with low encryption ciphers
are easy to decrypt
The key length must be equal or larger than 128 bits

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 19

The aim of this feature is to respond to a specific case: a CS owns two GDs but CAC of links between GDs and CS is set to 0, meaning
than no call can be done from GD #1 to GD #2 directly.
Instead, private to public overflow feature is used.
Before R9.1 in a such situation, if a set of GD #2 is immediately forwarded on an external number using a GD #2 trunk group, call from
GD #1 to this set actually fails, because call forward is managed directly from caller set (on GD #1) and private to public overflow does
not allow to seize distant trunk group (on GD #2).
In R9.1, the call forwarding works fine.

Multi-Country feature can affect external call forward. If forwarded sets are not located in the same country then the call terminates,
calling number presented on outgoing trunk group must take care of this specific case. To provide a relevant calling number two
possibilities are offered:
• Building an International calling number from caller number using parameters of the country of forwarded set.
• Ignore the configuration and provide forwarded set’s number.
Due to high complexity of first solution, in case of multi-county external forward, number of forwarded sets will be provided as calling
number. This feature works only with R2 and ISDN TGs.

LLDP-MED
Generalities

The IP Touch x8 Series extensions handle the LLDP-MED protocol

LLDP-MED: Link Layer Discovery Protocol - Media Endpoint Discovery

LLDP operates on data link layer. It is used to exchange some devices


information (identity, capabilities) between the connected devices and the
network switch. This mechanism is based on IEEE 802.1AB and ANSI TIA 1057
standards

With LLDP-MED protocol, the IP Touch x8 Series terminals can automatically:

Acquire VLAN ID(1)

Renegotiate power consumption with more accurate figure instead of only


POE class information

Send inventory information of terminal to the adjacent LAN switch

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 20

1) The terminal sends to the switch some information via a LLDP/LLDP_MED message. It then starts a “one second” timer. If the set
does not receive anything from the switch, it considers that the adjacent LAN Switch does not support VLAN Assignment, and the
terminal continues its initialization with a normal startup

Hands-free activation on MIPT

The feature allows the Loudspeaker Announcement on MIPT 310/610

Alarm on MIPT (UPMC)

MobiCall application (from NewVoice company) sends an alarm to a MIPT set,


the calling name has 16 characters on one line

With new implementation: MIPT display will be having name on two lines
(30 characters in UTF-8) instead of one

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 22

MobiCall (MC) is an alarm system which is connected to OXE through an ABC-F TDM trunk group (T1 or T2). When an alarm occurs MC
calls an MIPT set (a nurse or other people). In the SET-UP message MC fills the calling name with the 16 first characters of the alarm
text. For example "Patient”. When the MIPT answers MC sends 16 further characters as name in FACILITY message.
For example "Room No12345".

With new implementation MIPT display will be having name on 2 lines (30 characters) instead of one.
MC will send 30 characters in UTF8 name. When ringing, instead of 3 lines with Name, number and "Calling", display would be Name on
two lines (15 characters on each line) and "Calling" on 3rd line. When MIPT answers call, display would be Name on two lines and
"Conversation" + timer" on 3rd line.
A new trunk group data will be added in given below path.
“Trunk Group -> Special Services + Alarm Call.”
+ Nothing
+ Urgent Broadcasting
+ Timed Call Release.
Default value for the parameter Special Services is “Nothing”.
The condition to modify display on MIPT for an Alarm Call will be MIPT Set + trunk group data. When MIPT answers the call, it directly
goes to DTMF mode. When MIPT dials the digits in DTMF mode, display of digits on MIPT screen can be managed through parameter
given in below path.
“ System -> Other System Parameter + No. Digits displayed on the Sets (1 to 16).”

IP Touch Security - Solution historical

The IP Touch Security Solution offered the possibility to secure the “signaling
and voice” over IP in Stand-Alone configuration at its first launching

A SSM(1) is required to secure the CS CPU


And a MSM(2) is required to secure a MG (Crystal or Common hardware)
The IP Touch handles themselves the security feature

A second step of development allowed to secure IP ABCF Network links


(Signaling first, then Signaling + Voice)

Then, this Thalès solution has been chosen to respond to some customers who
wanted a strong and reliable signaling link against DOS(3) attacks for remote IP
Media Gateways (Common hardware). The Thalès VPN Client is embedded on
the GD(4) and only encrypts the signaling
This GD is then called “MGSec”

The release 9.1 introduces the possibility to secure a MG without Thalès boxes
(NGP Crystal & Common hardware) for Signaling & Voice. The Thalès VPN Client
is embedded on both platforms boards

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 24

1) SSM: Server Security Module. In case of Call Server duplication, A SSM can be used per CPU

2) MSM: Media Security Module. According to the box generation [MSM or MSM-RM (Rack Mounted)] and the topology, a MSM can
protect a GD (or GD + GA) or an INTIPA/B (or two INTPA/B)

3) Deny Of Service

4) This solution does not require a MSM to protect the GD

IP Touch Security - NGP Security

A NGP board always controls the authenticity of the binary even if the security
mode is “Bypass”(1)

The binaries are signed with the Alcatel-Lucent private key. The boards use the
Alcatel-Lucent public key stored in their flash to authenticate the files. This
authentication control ensures that the binary has been produced by Alcatel-Lucent

The integrity control uses the “SHA-1” HMAC method(2) for NGP boards

The new NGP hardware capabilities offer the possibility to handle the security
functionalities without any MSM(3). The security level of this solution is the
following one:

Signaling encryption: AES-CBC(4)


Voice encryption: SRTP(5) and SRTCP

Terminology

SoftMSM: NGP Media Gateway(6) running the embedded Thalès VPN client and
the Thalès SRTP library

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 25

1) In the previous release the GD authenticated its binary only if the security feature was activated (“Security=Protect” in the
lanpbx.cfg file). The crystal INTIP board did not support this authentication

2) The MD5 method is still used for classical Common hardware (GD-GD2)

3) A SSM is still required to protect the Call Server. The MSM are not used to protect the NGP Media Gateways

Remark:
A MSM remains mandatory to protect a PCS in order to secure the communications handled by the PCS

4) Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher Algorithm - in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) Mode
The packet authentication uses the HMAC-SHA-1 method

5) The voice encryption is realized with the AES-CM cipher [Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher Algorithm - in Counter Mode
(CM)]

6) It includes both types of platforms: Common and Crystal hardware

e-CS Duplication - Database consistency

Problem with previous releases features like « Free Seating »and Contact center
frequently modify the database(1)

If the Stand-by CPU is unreachable (loss of the IPLINK for maintenance reasons, IP
network failure…), the consistency of the database is no more ensured

Differences between the 2 databases raise many incidents and may give issues at
the next CPU switchovers
A manual mastercopy must be done

R9.1 Solution (automatic update):

The main CPU stores the “mao commands” when stand-by is no more
available(2). This data is transmitted to the stand-by CPU as soon as the
inter-CPU IPLINK is back to normal in order to avoid a “mastercopy”

All Rights Reserved © 2009, Alcatel-Lucent 26

1) Each time a user is logging on or off, the database is modified

“Save MAO msg because Sdby CPU is not available” occurs on main CPU only. The IP link between both CPU is broken. The database
on main CPU has been modified and the first MAO message has been stored by main IPLINK waiting for standby CPU comes back.

• “MAO is ON on the remote CPU” occurs on main CPU only. Main IPLINK received the MAO_IS_ON message from standby IPLINK. That
means that standby CPU is ready to process MAO messages stored by main CPU.

• “MAO is ON on the local CPU” occurs on standby CPU only. Standby IPLINK received the MAO_IS_ON_ACK message from main IPLINK.
That means that main CPU knows that standby CPU is ready to process MAO messages. So, main IPLINK starts sending stored MAO
messages.

• “Stop saving MAO msg after X minutes” occurs on main CPU only. Main IPLINK stopped storing MAO messages after X minutes
whereas standby CPU was not available. Stored MAO messages are deleted. Standby CPU MUST be updated using the “master copy”
command.

29/09/09 12:41:05 000001M|019/01/-/---|=0:0440=IP_LINK Incident: The


standby CPU requests a mastercopy

It happens on main CPU when main IPLINK deletes stored MAO messages. It
may happen when the time limit for storage is reached, or in a “double
main” case when both of the CPUs have stored MAO commands

When this incident is raised, the OXE system administrator MUST proceed to
a mastercopy on standby CPU

29/09/09 12:49:02 000001M|019/01/-/---|=0:0439=IP_LINK Incident: The local


CPU requests a mastercopy

When both CPUs are “main” after a network failure, they decide which one
must reset. If the CPU that resets, has stored MAO messages, this incident is
raised

So, a mastercopy is requested

Telnet on IP boards

From R9.0, the “Telnet” service has been disabled by default on boards but can
be activated. Here follows the activation methods available from R9.1

Crystal hardware boards

For INT-IP/INT-IP2 boards


Via V24, activate the Telnet server (configuration menu)

For INT-IP3 boards


Via V24 or from the CS with the command “cpl_online”
In the “mgconfig”, activate the Telnet server (always opened, or opened with a timer)

Common hardware boards

GD/GA and GD-2/GA-2


The Telnet server has to be activated via the “ippstat” tool (on the CS)(1)

GD-2/GA-2 et GD-3/GA-3
Via V24 or from the CS with the commande “cpl_online”
In the “mgconfig”, activate the Telnet server (always opened, or opened with a timer)

1) In this case a mandatory signaling link has to be operational

Remark:
The “telnet_al” command has to be used for all the boards in order to initialize properly the Telnet session
