Direct connection (IP): Communication with the SBC is direct through the SBC's IP address received from Live Platform.
Direct connection (Fqdn): Communication with the SBC is through the DNS-resolved IP address from the FQDN received from Live Platform.
Custom address: Communication uses a customized IP address or FQDN for the SBC

Parameter

Description

Direct connection (FQDN)

Use Websocket

Connect to the SBC through Websocket tunnel, routed via OVOC. This option allows Live Platform UMP-365 to communicate with SBC devices that are located behind a NAT or firewall when their HTTP/HTTPS ports are open. This option requires the following configuration:

Ensure the SBC device is connected to OVOC via Websocket
Add the following new rows in ‘ApplicationSettings’ table in the UMP SQL database (the values depend on the method your UMP-365 is connected to OVOC). See Networking:
Ovoc.WsProxy.DiscoveryPort
8061 if UMP-365 is connected to OVOC via Websocket
80 if UMP-365 is connected to OVOC with HTTP
443 if UMP-365 is connected to OVOC with HTTPS
Ovoc.WsProxy.EndpointPort
8060 if UMP is connected to OVOC via Websocket
80 if UMP is connected to OVOC with HTTP
443 if UMP is connected to OVOC with HTTPS

Custom address

Connect to Live Platform using a Custom IP address.
