Settings | view/edit advanced system settings (service parameters, global settings, MiNet options, SIP options, logging configuration)
Trust Store | view the list of certificates in the configurable trust store
Bulk provisioning | manage device data
Network | Profiles | pre-configured profiles to set up your network configuration
ICPs | set up the ICP or system that interacts with MBG
Port ranges | set the range of ports available for use by MiNet and SIP calls
IP blocking | view/configure network activities in real-time and block or allow connections between MBG and specific network blocks in CIDR format
IP Translations | view/configure IP translation rules
MiNet fallback addresses | configure manual fallback IP address (for device reboot)
Teleworking | Status | view MiNet and SIP profiles and devices
MiNet | add/edit MiNet phones and devices that connect to the server
SIP | add/edit SIP phones and devices that connect to the server
Application integration | enable/disable Call Recording and configure options for MiVoice Business Console, MiCollab Client, MiContact Center, MiCollab Conference and other applications
SIP trunking | Status | view SIP trunk status
Configuration | view/configure SIP trunks
Adaptation | configure SIP adaptation pipelines, and their plugins
Remote proxy | Domain list | view/configure LAN server proxy
| Users | view/configure permissions for remote users
| Proxy applications | view list of applications that support remote management
Call recording | Status | view status of all registered call recording equipment
Configuration | configure call recording
Troubleshooting | Diagnostics | Fetch logs for product support: Downloads MBG log files as a single compressed archive. Connectivity Tests: Checks connectivity to ICPs for MiNet, SIP, and TFTP services based on the configured type; SIP trunking endpoints; and application servers such as MiCollab and MiContact Center. If these are configured with a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), a DNS resolution test is also run. Traceroute: Display the route (path) of packets travelling across the IP network to an endpoint. Packet Trace: Capture a log of traffic passing over the network. Teleworker Network Analyzer: Tests voice quality and remote IP Phone connectivity to the MBG server.
Logging | Primary Service: Controls logging for SIP and MiNet devices, SIP trunks, call recording, and clustering. Management Layer: Controls logging by the management layer components, including the User Interface, database and events system.
Alarms | set the severity level for individual events. set the thresholds for SNMP traps
Overrides | view list of configuration overrides

## Configuration Steps

The following steps are recommended to configure the MBG solution. You can adjust these steps to suit you own implementation.

To configure MBG:

1. Program support for devices:
   - If MiNet devices will connect to the MBG for teleworking, enable MiNet support and review the MiNet options.
   - If MiNet devices will connect to the MBG for call recording, enable MiNet support, enable Call Recording and review the MiNet options.
   - If SIP devices will connect to the MBG for teleworking, enable SIP support and review the SIP options.
   - If SIP devices will connect to the MBG for call recording, enable SIP support, enable Call Recording and review the SIP options.
2. Add ICP(s) and Configure the Default ICP.
3. Configure the Network Profile for the MBG.
4. Program your services:
   - Add the MiNet devices (singly or in bulk)
   - Add the SIP devices (singly or in bulk)
   - Configure the SIP Trunks (if used) and enable SIP support
   - Configure the Call Recording Equipment and Sets (if used)
5. (Optional) Configure the following:
   - IP Translation (for deployments with multiple servers in the DMZ)
   - Applications: MiVoice Business Console; MiCollab Client; MiContact Center; MiVoice Conference Unit.
   - Clustering
6. Start the MBG.

The following services are pre-configured during initial deployment of the solution:

- MiNet support and MiNet options for local streaming and ping before redirect
- SIP support and SIP options, including required allowed_uri
- ICPs
- Network Profile
- Port ranges
- Clustering
- Application Integration Voice Quality
- SIP trunking (using MiConfig Wizard)
- WebRTC support

Optionally, the following can be configured:

- Additional SIP Trunks
- Call Recording
- SIP options Set-side and ICP-side RTP security
