LibreSBC

The Open Source Session Border Controller

LibreSBC is a open-source Session Border Controller provide robust security, simplified interoperability, advanced session management, high performance, scale of carrier-grade and reliability for voice over IP (VoIP) infrastructures. LibreSBC designed to typically deployed at the network edge, the demarcation points (borders) among networks/environments.

Functions

SBCs commonly maintain full session state and offer the following functions:

Connectivity & Compatibility

Allow multiple networks to communicate through the use of a variety of techniques such as:

  • Advanced NAT Traversal Capabilities
  • SIP normalization, SIP message and header manipulation
  • Call Party Translatation
  • VPN connectivity
  • Protocol translations between UDP, TCP & TLS
  • Powerful built-in routing engine.
  • Allowing control routing by 3rd-party software via HTTP
  • Dynamic Load Balancing, Failover, Distribution
  • IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack

Security:

Protect the network and other devices from:

  • Malicious attacks such as a denial-of-service attack (DoS) or distributed DoS
  • Toll fraud via rogue media streams
  • SIP Malformed Packet Protection
  • Topology hiding by back to back user agent (B2BUA)
  • Encryption of signaling (via TLS) and media (SRTP)
  • Access Control List
  • Auto Control Network Firewall
  • SIP Firewall Level

Quality of service

The QoS policy of a network and prioritization of flows is usually implemented by the SBC. It can include such functions as:

Media services

Offer border-based media control and services such as:

  • Media encoding/decoding (SRTP/RTP)
  • DTMF relay and interworking include In-Band Signaling (touch tones), Out-of-Band Signaling (RFC2833) and SIP INFO Method
  • Media Codec transcoding: G711A/U, G729, OPUS, AMR, G.722.2 AMR-WB
  • Tones and announcements (Early Media)
  • Data and fax interworking
  • Support multiple Media mode: Proxy, Bypass, Transcode
  • Voice Activity Detection VAD
  • Confort Noise Generation CNG

Intergration

Support to intergrate with 3rd-party system or customer function easily

  • Flexible JSON for Call Detail Record (CDR), Send CDR to HTTP API, enabling customized/3rd-party usage such as databases, data analysis or billing purpose.
  • Customization routing mechanism via HTTP API
  • Network capture support: Live Capture and Intergrated with Homer
