20 Expressway Solution Overview

21 Expressway Solution Overview How Expressway Works Inside Network DMZ Outside Network Internet A VCS Firewall VCS Control Expressway 1. VCS Expressway is the traversal server installed in DMZ. VCS Control is the traversal client installed inside the enterprise network. 2. VCS Control connects via the firewall to a specific port on the VCS Expressway with secure login credentials. 3. Once the connection has been established, the VCS Control sends keep-alive packets to the VCS Expressway 4. When VCS Expressway receives an incoming call, it issues an incoming call request to VCS Control. 5. The VCS Control then initiates a connection to the internal endpoint 6. The call is established and media traverses the firewall securely Firewall B

25 Active FW/NAT Traversal

26 Active FW/NAT Traversal Firewall Traversal and Signaling H.323 firewall traversal protocols The VCS supports two different firewall traversal protocols for H.323: Assent and H /H Assent is Cisco s proprietary protocol. H /19 are ITU standards which define protocols for the firewall traversal of signaling and media respectively. These standards are based on the original Assent protocol. SIP firewall traversal protocols The VCS supports the Assent protocol for firewall traversal of media. The signaling is traversed through a TCP/TLS connection established from the client to the server. A traversal server and traversal client must use the same protocol in order to communicate. SIP & H.323 each use a different specific port for the traversal connection 26

27 Active FW/NAT Traversal Traversal Port Summary Protocol Call Signaling Media H.323 Assent H.323 H /19 UDP/6001: listening for RAS TCP/2776: listening for H.225 and H.245 UDP/6001: listening for RAS TCP/1720: listening for H.225 TCP/2777: listening for H.245 UDP/2776: RTP media port UDP/2777: RTCP media control UDP/2776: RTP media port UDP/2777: RTCP media control UDP/ : de-multiplex media port range SIP Assent TCP or TLS/7001: listening for signaling SIP media uses Assent to traverse the firewall.

42 What is GEO DNS or Split-Horizon DNS? Wikipedia says: In computer networking, split-horizon DNS, split-view DNS, or splitbrain DNS is the facility of a Domain Name System (DNS) implementation to provide different sets of DNS information, selected by, usually, the source address of the DNS request. 42

43 What does Geo DNS do for me? Allows a single global domain presence. With the assumption that nearer is better the nearest point of entry (Expressway) is returned based on where the query came from. Supports multiple site deployments of Expressway 43

46 Solving the Media Routing Problem

47 Solving the Media Routing Problem Why is media latching needed? RTP was designed for media initiation from both sides. This requires both source / destination IP addresses of endpoints are routable. Address in signaling is not reachable if call initiator uses non-routable (RFC 1918) address VCS Expressway SDP v=0 o=cisco 1 2 IN IP s=c=in IP b=as:256 t=0 0 m=audio RTP/AVP b=tias: a=rtpmap:127 MP4A-LATM/90000 a=fmtp:127 profile-level-id=24;object=23;bitrate=64000 a=rtpmap:11 L16/48000 a=rtpmap:100 telephone-event/8000 a=fmtp: a=sendrecv m=video RTP/AVP

48 Solving the Media Routing Problem VCS Media Latching VCS determined destination is NAT d Contact address differs from source IP address Media (RTP&RTCP) is sent to remote end after media packet is received (this opens up the NAT binding). Media sent to network address from which the media packet is received Public Address + port VCS Expressway Interenet Private Address + port 48

49 Solving the Media Routing Problem Address Comparison 49

50 What is ICE? Interactive Connectivity Establishment as described by RFC 5245 ICE provides a mechanism for SIP client NAT traversal ICE is a framework which makes use of the Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN) protocol and its extension, Traversal Using Relay NAT (TURN) ICE allows the clients to discover enough information about their topologies to potentially find one or more paths by which they can communicate. 50

51 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Interactive Connectivity Establishment Choose method of connecting media Direct, server reflexive, and TURN relay paths VCS Expressway TURN Server TURN Relay Server Reflexive Direct 51

52 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE - Candidates Relay Reflexive Host 52

53 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Offer / Answer SDP offer (INVITE or OK) SDP answer (OK or ACK) SDP offer containing ICE candidate info, ICE-ufrag (ICE ID) ICE-pwd INVITE 200 OK SDP answer containing ICE candidate info, ICE-ufrag (ICE ID) ICE-pwd 53

54 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE TURN establishment Request: CreatePermission: IP addresses of destinations Request: CreatePermission: IP addresses of destinations CreatePermission success CreatePermission success 54

55 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Direct connection STUN Bind request, ICE-ufrag STUN Bind success Your ICE-ufrag:My ICE-ufrag Media STUN Bind request, ICE-ufrag STUN Bind success Your ICE-ufrag:My ICE-ufrag 55

56 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Server reflexive connection For full cone or restrictive cone firewalls This request gets in due to previous outbound message STUN Bind request #1 ICE-ufrag STUN Bind request #2 ICE-ufrag STUN Bind success Your ICE-ufrag:My ICE-ufrag Media STUN Bind request, ICE-ufrag Second one goes through due to outbound message to other firewall STUN Bind success Your ICE-ufrag:My ICE-ufrag 56

57 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE TURN relay connection If no paths can be built, media will traverse via TURN server on VCS Expressway (Relay candidate) VCS Expressway TURN Server Media TURN Relay 58

58 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Firewall types Some firewalls allow any responses to be returned from the device that had the message sent to it: Full cone Restricted Cone Others restrict to messages coming from the same IP port: Port restricted Symmetric A good reference on firewall types, see: 59

59 Solving the Media Routing Problem SIP ICE Will Cisco VCS take the media, or will ICE control the media flow? ICE can only work with the VCS if the VCS does not have to take the media VCS has to take the media if the call is a traversal call. EXCEPTION: VCS does not need to take the media when the endpoint supports ICE even if behind a firewall. If the two ICE devices are registered to a VCS Expressway or Expressway cluster ICE will control the media flow If only 1 device is registered to the Cisco VCS Expressway, Cisco VCS uses its do I need to take media decision Cisco VCS takes media if: Destination is non-ice endpoint only reachable via a traversal zone Any interworking is required (SIP / H.323 or IPv4 / IPv6) Endpoint is non-ice behind a firewall (apparent address <> contact address) ICE will work if a nonregistered device makes a call and the other device is registered. 60

61 Interworking

62 Interworking Lots of products are migrating towards SIP, yet the majority of deployed video products are still H.323 Encryption schema for these protocols also require interworking IPv4 address starvation is real, but migration to IPv6 will not happen overnight Interworking requires media to traverse the VCS platform The VCS tries to route the call using the incoming protocol, then attempts the other protocol Interworking is a configurable option in VCS-E 63

63 H323/SIP Interworking Call RFC 4123 Functionalities Mapping of the call setup and teardown sequences Registering H.323 and SIP endpoints with SIP registrars and H.323 gatekeepers Resolving H.323 and SIP addresses Maintaining the H.323 and SIP state machines Negotiating terminal capabilities Opening and closing media channels Mapping media-coding algorithms for H.323 and SIP networks Reserving and releasing call-related resources Processing of mid-call signaling messages Handling of services and features 64

64 VCS Interworking Why media must traverse the VCS SIP vs. H.323 signaling (Paraphrase) Ask vs Tell SIP - This is what I can receive. H This is what I am going to send.

67 VCS Interworking IPv4-IPv6 The VCS supports IPv4 only, IPv6 only, or both for registration and calling of endpoints. (Both is the default) The VCS communicates in the protocol native to the endpoints registration. This means the VCS acts as a native IPv4 to IPv6 gateway and vice versa Calls that are interworked between IPv4 and IPv6 are traversal calls and signaling and media with traverse the VCS. The VCS supports the assignment of an IPv6 unicast address and an IPv6 gateway address 68
