Configuring Local Media Optimization requires configuring the user and SBC sites (external trusted IPs, network regions, sites and subnets, then assigning SBCs to sites with modes and proxy values) and configuring the SBCs per the SBC vendor's specification; the network part can be done in the Teams admin center or PowerShell.
