  1. Question 1Intermediate

    Session Border Controller for Enterprise (ASBCE) · SIP Routing and Proxy Configuration

    Case Study:

    Company Overview
    GlobalBank Corp is upgrading its communication infrastructure to Avaya Aura 10. They have a main HQ and 50 branch offices. They require high availability and strict security compliance.

    Infrastructure Details

    • Core: CM, SM, SMGR at HQ.
    • Edge: ASBCE at HQ DMZ.
    • Applications: Breeze for Presence, AAM for Messaging, AES for Contact Center.
    • Endpoints: 5000 SIP hard phones, 2000 WebRTC users.

    Current Issue
    The security team requires that all SIP traffic from the SIP Trunk Provider be inspected for malformed headers before entering the corporate network. Additionally, the internal topology (IP addresses of SM) must never be revealed in SIP headers sent to the provider.

    Requirement
    Configure the ASBCE to meet these security mandates.

    Based on the scenario, which ASBCE feature must be configured to remove internal IP addresses from the 'Via' and 'Record-Route' headers in outgoing SIP messages to the provider?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: A

    The Topology Hiding Profile in ASBCE is specifically designed to replace internal IP addresses in SIP headers (Via, Record-Route, From, To, etc.) with the IP address of the ASBCE interface, effectively masking the internal network structure from external entities.

  2. Question 2Intermediate

    Avaya Aura Architecture and Core Components · Session Manager Architecture

    In an Avaya Aura deployment, the administrator needs to configure System Manager (SMGR) to replicate data to the Session Manager (SM). After building the Session Manager instance in SMGR, the Replication status remains 'Not Polled'. What is the immediate next step the administrator must perform on the Session Manager command line to initiate the trust relationship?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    The initTM (Initialize Trust Management) command is run on the Session Manager to establish the initial secure trust relationship with System Manager. It prompts for the enrollment password generated in System Manager.

  3. Question 3Intermediate

    Avaya Aura Breeze Platform and Presence Services · Avaya Aura Breeze with WebRTC Snap-in

    A customer is implementing the Avaya Aura Breeze platform with the WebRTC Snap-in. They need to ensure that media (audio/video) can traverse their corporate firewall for external users without requiring a VPN. Which standard protocols must be supported and configured on the ASBCE to facilitate this NAT traversal for WebRTC media?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: D

    WebRTC relies on ICE (Interactive Connectivity Establishment), which uses STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT) to discover public IPs and TURN (Traversal Using Relays around NAT) to relay media when direct peer-to-peer connection fails. The ASBCE provides these services for WebRTC clients.

  4. Question 4Intermediate

    Avaya Aura Messaging · Single and Multi-Server Solutions

    True or False: In an Avaya Aura Messaging High Availability configuration, the 'Notify Me' feature (outbound notifications via SMS/Email) is active on both the Primary and Secondary servers simultaneously to ensure immediate delivery.

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    False. In an AAM High Availability pair, services like 'Notify Me' are typically active only on the server currently holding the active role for that function to prevent duplicate notifications to the user. The Secondary server is in standby for these services unless a failover occurs.

  5. Question 5Advanced

    Third-Party System Integration · Microsoft Teams Compatibility

    When integrating Microsoft Teams with Avaya Aura via the ASBCE for Direct Routing, specific SIP signaling adjustments are often required to match Microsoft's specifications. Where in the ASBCE interface would you configure the removal of the 'History-Info' header or the modification of the 'Contact' header to ensure compatibility?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    Microsoft Teams Direct Routing has strict SIP header requirements. ASBCE uses Signaling Manipulation (SigMa) scripts to granularly add, remove, or modify SIP headers (like History-Info, Referred-By, or Contact parameters) that standard profiles cannot handle.

  6. Question 6Intermediate

    Avaya Aura Architecture and Core Components · Session Manager Architecture

    A system administrator is configuring Avaya Aura Session Manager (SM) to route calls to an Avaya Aura Messaging (AAM) system. The AAM is configured as a SIP entity. Which routing mechanism in Session Manager must be configured to ensure that calls to the voicemail pilot number (e.g., 5000) are directed to the AAM SIP Entity?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: C

    In Session Manager, routing logic flows as: Dial Pattern -> Routing Policy -> SIP Entity. To route a specific number (like a pilot number) to a destination, you define the pattern and link it via a policy to the destination Entity.

  7. Question 7Beginner

    Avaya Aura Breeze Platform and Presence Services · Avaya Aura Breeze with Presence Services Snap-in

    You are deploying the Avaya Aura Breeze platform. Which of the following components is MANDATORY to be installed on the Breeze server to provide security for the SIP traffic entering the Breeze environment from Session Manager?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: C

    The Security Module is a mandatory component of the Avaya Aura Breeze architecture. It acts as a SIP firewall and entry point for all SIP traffic destined for the Snap-ins running on the Breeze server.

  8. Question 8Beginner

    Application Enablement Services (AES) · AES Overview and Features

    An administrator is configuring the TSAPI interface on the Application Enablement Services (AES) server. The CTI application requires a secure encrypted connection. Which port is the default standard for secure TSAPI (Tlinks) communication that must be opened on the firewall?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: C

    Port 1063 is the default port for secure TSAPI (using TLS). The unencrypted port is typically 450.

  9. Question 9Intermediate

    Additional Communication Applications · Avaya Aura Branch Survivability

    The Avaya Aura Branch Survivability (formerly Survivable Remote) solution is being deployed. In the event of a WAN failure, the branch gateways must register to the Local Survivable Processor (LSP). Which Communication Manager form is used to define the LSP's IP address that the gateways should use for recovery?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    In the Communication Manager 'change media-gateway' form, the 'Controller IP Addresses' fields allow you to list the primary CM and the LSP (survivable processor) IP addresses. The gateway uses this list to know where to register if the primary connection is lost.

  10. Question 10Intermediate

    Session Border Controller for Enterprise (ASBCE) · SIP Routing and Proxy Configuration

    When configuring an ASBCE for a SIP Trunking implementation with a Service Provider that requires SIP OPTIONS pings for keep-alive, which ASBCE configuration object is used to enable and define the frequency of these heartbeats?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: A

    The SIP Server Profile in ASBCE defines the destination server (like the Service Provider's SBC). Within this profile, the 'Heartbeat' section is used to enable SIP OPTIONS pings and set their frequency to monitor the trunk's health.
