Managing WebLogic SIP Server Network Resources
Configuring TCP and TLS Channels for Diameter Support
WebLogic SIP Server’ s Diameter implementation supports the Diameter protocol over the TCP or TLS transport protocols. To enable incoming Diameter connections on a server, you configure a dedicated network channel using the protocol type“ diameter” for TCP transport, or“ diameters” for both TCP and TLS transport. The Diameter implementation application may automatically upgrade Diameter connections to use TLS as described in the Diameter specification( RFC 3558).
See“ Configuring Diameter Client Nodes and Relay Agents” on page 4-1 for more information about configuring network channels for Diameter protocol support.
Configuring Engine Servers to Listen on Any IP Interface( 0.0.0.0 or::)
To configure WebLogic SIP Server to listen for UDP traffic on any available IP interface, create a new SIP channel and specify 0.0.0.0( or:: for IPv6 networks) as the listen address. Note that you must still configure at least one additional channel with an explicit IP address to use for outgoing SIP messages.( For multi-homed machines, each interface used for outgoing messages must have a configured channel.)
Note: If you configure a SIP channel without specifying the channel listen address, but you do configure a listen address for the server itself, then the SIP channel inherits the server listen address. In this case the SIP channel does not listen on IP _ ANY.
Note: Using the 0.0.0.0 configuration affects only UDP traffic on Linux platforms. WebLogic SIP Server only creates TCP and HTTP listen threads corresponding to the configured hostname of the server, and localhost. If multiple addresses are mapped to the hostname, WebLogic SIP Server displays warning messages upon startup. To avoid this problem and listen on all addresses, specify the:: address, which encompasses all available addresses for both IPv6 and IPv4 for HTTP and TCP traffic as well.
Configuring Unique Listen Address Attributes for Data Tier Replicas
Each replica in the data tier must bind to a unique Listen Address attribute( a unique DNS name or IP address) in order to contact one another as peers. Follow these instructions for each replica to assign a unique Listen Address:
