Adding ports to the virtual host alias

Add ports to the sip_proxyreg_host virtual host for the IBM® SIP Edge Proxy.

About this task

These instructions are for a Sametime® SIP Proxy/Registrar cluster. The instructions for a Conference Manager and SIP Edge proxy cluster are the same with one exception - instead of the sip_proxyreg_host virtual host, the ports should be added the default_host virtual host). Add PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS_LB and PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS_LB ports to the sip_proxyreg_host virtual host. However if a port is already listed in the table, you do not need to add it again.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console.
  2. Click Environment > Virtual Hosts.
  3. In the Virtual Hosts table, click the host called sip_proxyreg_host. This displays the Configuration page for the sip_proxyreg_host.
  4. In the Additional Properties section, click Host Aliases.
  5. In the Host Aliases table, add the PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS_LB and PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS_LB ports (the SIP ports you created). To add a port:
    1. Click the New button at the beginning of the table.
    2. In the Host Name field, type *.
    3. In the Port field, type a port from your list.
    4. Click OK.
    5. Repeat this for the two ports (unless a port is already listed in this table).
  6. Save the new port settings to the master configuration.
  7. Synchronize all nodes in the cluster by completing these steps:
    1. In the deployment manager's Integrated Solutions Console, click System Administration > Nodes.
    2. Click Full Resynchronize.
    3. Restart the SIP Proxy/Registrar.

What to do next

Adding trusted IP addresses to the SIP Proxy/Registrar. On each server in the SIP Proxy/Registrar cluster, add the virtual IP address (cluster address) of the load balancer that operates with the Conference Manager cluster to the trusted IP list.
