Prerequisites for SIP Bind Features

The following are the prerequisites for this feature:

•Ensure the gateway has voice functionality that is configurable for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).

•Establish a working IP network. For more information about configuring IP, refer to the Cisco IOS IP Addressing Configuration Guide.

•Configure VoIP. For more information about configuring VoIP, refer to the Cisco IOS Voice Command Reference.

Restrictions for SIP Bind Features

Although the bind all command is an accepted configuration, it does not appear in show running-config command output. Because the bind all command is equivalent to issuing the commands bind source and bind media, those are the commands that appear in the show running-config command output.

Information About SIP Bind Features

When you configure SIP on a router, the ports on all its interfaces are open by default. This makes the router vulnerable to malicious attackers who can execute toll fraud across the gateway if the router has a public IP address and a public switched telephone network (PSTN) connection. To eliminate the threat, you should bind an interface to an IP address so that only those ports are open to the outside world. In addition, you should protect any public or untrusted interface by configuring a firewall or an access control list (ACL) to prevent unwanted traffic from traversing the router.

Benefits of SIP Bind Features

The benefits of SIP Bind feature is as follows:

•SIP signaling and media paths can advertise the same source IP address on the gateway for certain applications, even if the paths used different addresses to reach the source. This eliminates confusion for firewall applications that may have taken action on source address packets before the use of binding.

•Firewalls filter messages based on variables such as the message source, the target address, and available ports. Normally a firewall opens only certain addresses or port combination to the outside world and those addresses can change dynamically. Because VoIP technology requires the use of more than one address or port combination, the bind command adds flexibility by assigning a gateway to a specific interface (and therefore the associated address) for the signaling or media application.

•You can obtain a predefined and separate interface for both signaling and media traffic. Once a bind command is in effect, the interface it limits is bound solely to that purpose. Administrators can therefore dictate the use of one network to transport the signaling and another network to transport the media. The benefits of administrator control are:

–Administrators know the traffic that runs on specific networks, thereby making debugging easier.

–Administrators know the capacity of the network and the target traffic, thereby making engineering and planning easier.

–Traffic is controlled, allowing Qualtiy of Service (QoS) to be monitored.

•The bind media command relaxes the constraints imposed by the bind control and bind all commands, which cannot be set during an active call. The bind media command works with active calls.

To configure SIP Gateway Support for the bind Command, you should understand the following concepts:

•Source Address

•Voice Media Stream Processing

Source Address

In early releases of Cisco IOS software with SIP functionality, the source address of a packet going out of the gateway was never deterministic. That is, the session protocols and VoIP layers always depended on the IP layer to give the best local address. The best local address was then used as the source address (the address showing where the SIP request came from) for signaling and media packets. Using this nondeterministic address occasionally caused confusion for firewall applications, because a firewall could not be configured with an exact address and would take action on several different source address packets.

However, the bind command allows you to configure the source IP address of signaling and media packets to a specific interface's IP address. Thus, the address that goes out on the packet is bound to the IP address of the interface specified with the bind command. Packets that are not destined to the bound address are discarded.

When you do not want to specify a bind address or if the interface is down, the IP layer still provides the best local address.

The Support Ability to Configure Source IP Address for Signaling and Media per SIP Trunk feature extends the global bind functionality to support the SIP signaling Transport Layer Socket (TLS) with UDP and TCP. The source address at the dial peer is the source address in all the signaling and media packets between the gateway and the remote SIP entity for calls using the dial-peer. Multiple SIP listen sockets with specific source address handle the incoming SIP traffic from each selected SIP entity. The order of preference for retrieving the SIP signalling and media source address for inbound and outbound calls is as follows:

•Bind configuration at dial peer level

•Bind configuration at global level

•Best local IP address to reach the destination

Table 1 describes the state of the system when the bind command is applied in the global or dial peer level:

Table 1 State of the System for the bind Address 

Bind State
System Status

No global bind

The best local address is used in all outbound SIP messages.

Only one SIP listen socket with a wildcard source address.

Global bind

Global bind address used in all outbound SIP messages.

Only one SIP listen socket with global bind address.

No global bind

Dial peer bind

Dial peer bind address is used in outbound SIP messages of this dial peer. The remaining SIP messages use the best local address.

One SIP listen socket with a wildcard source address.

Additional SIP listen socket for each different dial peer bind listening on the specific dial peer bind address.

Global bind

Dial peer bind

Dial peer bind address is used in outbound SIP messages of this dial peer. The remaining SIP messages use the global bind address.

One SIP listen socket with global bind address.

Additional SIP listen socket for each different dial peer bind command listening on the specific dial peer bind address.


The bind command performs different functions based on the state of the interface (see Table 2).

Table 2 State of the Interface for the bind Command 

Interface State
Result Using Bind Command

Shut down

With or without active calls

TCP, TLS, and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) socket listeners are initially closed. (Socket listeners receive datagrams addressed to the socket.)

Then the sockets are opened to listen to any IP address.

If the outgoing gateway has the bind command enabled and has an active call, the call becomes a one-way call with media flowing from the outgoing gateway to the terminating gateway.

The dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are closed and the configuration turns inactive for all subsequent SIP messages.

No shut down

No active calls

TCP, TLS, and UDP socket listeners are initially closed. (Socket listeners receive datagrams addressed to the socket.)

Then the sockets are opened and bound to the IP address set by the bind command.

The sockets accept packets destined for the bound address only.

The dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are reopened and the configuration turns active for all subsequent SIP messages.

No shut down

Active calls

TCP, TLS, and UDP socket listeners are initially closed.

Then the sockets are opened to listen to any IP address.

The dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are reopened and the configuration turns active for all subsequent SIP messages.

Bound-interface IP address is removed

TCP, TLS, and UDP socket listeners are initially closed.

Then the sockets are opened to listen to any address, because the IP address has been removed. This happens even when SIP was never bound to an IP address.

A message stating that the IP address has been deleted from the SIP bound interface is printed.

If the outgoing gateway has the bind command enabled and has an active call, the call becomes a one-way call with media flowing from the outgoing gateway to the terminating gateway.

The dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are closed and the configuration turns inactive for all subsequent SIP messages.

The physical cable is pulled on the bound port, or

the interface layer is down

TCP, TLS, and UDP socket listeners are initially closed.

Then the sockets are opened and bound to listen to any address.

When the pulled cable is replaced, the result is as documented for no shutdown interfaces.

The dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are closed and the configuration turns inactive for all subsequent SIP messages.

A bind interface is shut down, or

its IP address is changed, or

the physical cable is pulled while SIP calls are active

The call becomes a one-way call with media flowing in only one direction. It flows from the gateway where the change or shutdown took place, to the gateway where no change occurred. Thus, the gateway with the status change no longer receives media.

The call is then disconnected, but the disconnected message is not understood by the gateway with the status change, and the call is still assumed to be active.

If the bind interface is shutdown, the dial peer bind socket listeners of the interface are closed. If the IP address of the interface is changed, the socket listeners representing the bind command is opened with the available IP address of the interface and the configuration turns active for all subsequent SIP messages.

Note If there are active calls, the bind command does not take effect if it is issued for the first time or another bind command is in effect. A message reminds you that there are active calls and that the change cannot take effect.


The bind command applied at the dial peer level can be modified only in the following situations:

•Dial peer bind is disabled in the supported IOS configuration options.

•Dial peer bind is removed when the bound interface is removed.

•Dial peer bind is removed when the dial peer is removed.

Voice Media Stream Processing

The SIP Gateway Support Enhancements to the bind Command feature extends the capabilities of the bind command by supporting a deterministic network interface for the voice media stream. Before the voice media stream addition, the bind command supported a deterministic network interface for control (signaling) traffic or all traffic. With the SIP Gateway Support Enhancements to the bind Command feature a finer granularity of control is achieved on the network interfaces used for voice traffic.

If multiple bind commands are issued in sequence—that is, if one bind command is configured and then another bind command is configured—a set interaction happens between the commands. Table 3 describes the expected command behavior.

Table 3 Interaction Between Previously Set and New bind Commands

bind control

Overrides existing bind control command.

bind media

With active calls

bind all or bind control

Blocks the command, and the following messages are displayed:

00:16:39: There are active calls

00:16:39: configure_sip_bind_command: The bind command change will not take effect

bind media

Succeeds and overrides any existing bind media command.


The bind all and bind control commands perform different functions based on the state of the interface. Table 4 describes the actions performed based on the interface state.

Note The bind all command only applies to global level, whereas the bind control and bind media command apply to global and dial peer. Table 4 applies to bind media only if the media interface is the same as the bind control interface. If the two interfaces are different, media behavior is independent of the interface state.

Troubleshooting Tips

For troubleshooting tips and a list of important debug commands, see Verifying and Troubleshooting SIP Features.

Monitoring the Bind Command

To monitor the bind command, perform the following steps.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. show ip sockets

2. show sip-ua status

3. show sip-ua connections {tcp [tls] | udp} {brief | detail}

4. show dial-peer voice

DETAILED STEPS

Step 1 show ip sockets

Use this command to display IP socket information and indicate whether the bind address of the receiving gateway is set.

The following sample output indicates that the bind address of the receiving gateway is set: 

Router# show ip sockets

Proto Remote Port Local Port In Out Stat TTY OutputIF

17 0.0.0.0 0 --any-- 2517 0 0 9 0

17 --listen--   172.18.192.204 1698 0 0 1 0

17 0.0.0.0 0 172.18.192.204 67 0 0 489 0

17 0.0.0.0 0 172.18.192.204 5060 0 0 A1 0


Step 2 show sip-ua status

Use this command to display SIP user-agent status and indicate whether bind is enabled.

The following sample output indicates that signaling is disabled and media on 172.18.192.204 is enabled: 

Router# show sip-ua status


SIP User Agent Status 

SIP User Agent for UDP : ENABLED 

SIP User Agent for TCP : ENABLED

 Transport types supported: RTP/AVP udptl

Step 3 show sip-ua connections {tcp [tls] | udp} {brief | detail}

Use this command to display the connection details for the UDP transport protocol. The command output looks identical for TCP and TLS. 

Router# show sip-ua connections udp detail 


Total active connections      : 0

No. of send failures          : 0

No. of remote closures        : 0

SIP Gateway Support for the bind Command

12.2(2)XB
12.2(2)XB2
12.2(8)T
12.2(11)T
12.3(4)T

The SIP Gateway Support for the bind command feature allows you to configure the source IP address of signaling packets and media packets.

In 12.2(2)XB, this feature was introduced.

In 12.3(4)T, this feature was expanded to provide the flexibility to specify different source interfaces for signaling and media, and allow network administrators a finer granularity of control on the network interfaces used for voice traffic.

The following sections provide information about this feature:

•Information About SIP Bind Features

•How to Configure SIP Bind Features

The following commands were introduced or modified: bind, show dial-peer voice, show ip sockets, show sip-ua connections, show sip-ua status, voice-class sip bind.

Support Ability to Configure Source IP Address for Signaling and Media per SIP Trunk

15.1(2)T

This feature allows you to configure a separate source IP address per SIP trunk. This source IP address is embedded in all SIP signaling and media packets that traverse the SIP trunk. This feature enables service providers for better profiling and billing policies. It also enables greater security for enterprises by the use of distinct IP addresses within and outside the enterprise domain.

The following section provides information about this feature:

•Setting the Bind Command at the Dial-peer Level

The following command was introduced or modified: voice-class sip bind.
