Configure the IBM® Sametime® Gateway cluster's
SIP Proxy server to listen on ports 5060 and 5061.
Before you begin
Configure a cluster of Sametime Gateway servers.
About this task
Public instant messaging providers require you to accept
connections on ports 5060 and 5061, so you will need to confirm that
the SIP Proxy server's host name is resolvable and is listening
on these ports. If the cluster's SIP Proxy server is installed
on a node that is already hosting Sametime Gateway, and the
SIP Proxy server is not already listening on ports 5060 and 5061,
reconfigure the port settings as follows:
Procedure
- Determine which ports the SIP Proxy server is currently
listening on:
- On the cluster's deployment manager, log in to
the Integrated Solutions Console as the WebSphere® administrator.
- Click .
- Check the listening ports for the following names:
- PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS
- PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS
If PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS listens on port 5060
and PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS listens on port 5061, you can skip the rest
of this task. Otherwise, proceed to the next step to change the port
settings.
- Determine whether any servers share the IP address and
host name with the SIP Proxy server.
If another server
shares the IP address and host name, change the default host port
settings for that server to avoid a conflict with the SIP Proxy server.
- Still on the deployment manager, click .
- Check whether any servers use the same IP address and
host name as the SIP Proxy server.
- If a server does share the IP address and host name,
check its port settings for the following names:
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE
- If SIP_DEFAULTHOST is not set to 5060 and SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE
is not set to 5061, skip to step 3.
- If ports 5060 and 5061 are already in use, change those
settings now by setting:
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST to port 5080
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE to port 5081
- Save your changes to the master configuration by clicking Save when
prompted.
- Now reset the SIP ports on the SIP Proxy server to use
ports 5060 and 5061:
- On the deployment manager, click .
- Change the port settings for the following names:
- PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS to port 5060
- PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS to port 5061
- Save your changes to the master configuration and synchronize
the nodes in the cluster:
WebSphere Application Server displays a
message prompting you to save changes to the master configuration.
Select the Synchronize nodes option before
clicking the Save button.
