TelcoBridges and SIP Authentication

TelcoBridges can handle SIP Authentication differently according to your network

  • IP to IP calls (FreeSBC)
  • TDM to IP calls (Tmedia)


FreeSBC

In the case of IP to IP calls, the challenge messages are forwarded between the SIP device and authentication server.

Invite callflow:

SIP Authentication Ip-IP INVITE

Bye callflow:

SIP Authentication Ip-IP BYE

Configuration

By default, TelcoBridges' products will forward challenge messages


Tmedia

In the case of TDM to IP calls, the authentication needs to respond to the authentication challenges.

Invite callflow:

SIP Authentication TDM-IP INVITE

Bye callflow:

SIP Authentication TDM-IP BYE

Configuration

The Tmedia needs to configure the 'Authentication Parameters' section in each SIP NAP that requires to respond to the authentication challenge.
