Assessment Title
Rule Text
A Session Border Controller (SBC) implemented as the DISN boundary element for the DISN NIPRNet IP Voice Services (IPVS) must be listed on the DoD Approved Products List (APL).
Description
Discussion Text
DISA has developed the DISN IPVS to support C2 Assured Service reliability and availability. As such, the worldwide availability and effectiveness of this service is dependent upon the components of the overall system that are located in each interconnected enclave. These components must be interoperable and support the needed quality of service. Therefore, if the VVoIP system in an enclave is to utilize the DISN IPVS to communicate with other enclaves across the NIPRNet, the system must be designed with equipment that has specific capabilities. Additionally, the implementation of VVoIP across the enclave boundary must not degrade the security or protection of the enclave.
Use of the DISN IPVS network requires the following equipment to assure interoperability across the DISN service:
- At least one Customer Edge Router (CE-R) on which the DISN access circuits terminates
- At least one Local Session Controller (LSC), Enterprise Session Controllers (ESC), or Multi-Function Soft Switch (MFSS) within the enclave for session management
- An SBC or data firewall having specific functionality as defined in the UCR will separate the CE-R from the LSC, ESC, and/or MFSS equipment
