Use the Call Notification Criteria window to specify individual sets of criteria the SBC Embedded Routing Engine (ERE) compares against calls. The ERE determines whether to send SIP NOTIFY messages to a specified Application Server when a call's calling party or called party matches the configured criteria. The criteria in a call notification criteria object include the called party, calling party, and the trunk group for the other call leg. It also identifies a Cns group cluster to notify in the event of a match.  Refer to Sending Unsolicited Call Notifications to Application Servers for more information on the SBC's call notification feature.

To View Call Notification Criteria
