The third network will be used as a control interface connecting to another host in FreeSBC 1+1 configuration and transcoding unit in the system for control purpose.

-Depending on the technical requirements of a particular deployment, a FreeSBC can be installed as a standalone or protected (1+1) system.  These options have different network needs to fulfill their functions.  In addition to redundancy, the support of external transcoding equipment with the FreeSBC also adds to the network requirements.   The following sections depict the different supported network configurations.

-The FreeSBC session border controller should be the only equipment facing the different networks to ensure proper protection and monitoring. In that sense, any transcoding units deployed (TSBC-HW-TRANS) will never be visible from data networks handled by the SBC.  The FreeSBC will require three internal networks to reach the transcoding units: two control networks and one media network.  The control networks are the same as those deployed for redundant systems while the media network will contain all the VoIP traffic coming in or out of the transcoding units.

-Once all networks have been physically (or virtually) connected to the FreeSBC instance, the system can be started.  Upon first bootup with indication for requirment to connect transcoding unit to the FreeSBC system (or after an operator initiated 'network device role' reset), the FreeSBC web portal will show a network device assignation page.   This page is used to identify the role of each detected devices.  As described above, the role can be any of the following three: control, management or VoIP traffic (named LAN/WAN).   Once the role is selected, the operator can enter a name for each.  Every configured/detected physical network device will then appear as a 'physical port' in the 'IP Interace' tab in the web portal.

 The operator can click on the '+' sign to get more information about a specific network device.  These information are helpful to match detected networks with the real network based on these characteristics (IP, driver type, etc).
