This feature is used to provision a tone and announcement profile, which specifies an announcement package and/or signaling tone package for the SBC to use to play announcements or signaling tones to calling or called parties.

Tone and announcement profiles are assigned to ingress or egress trunk groups. Also, use this feature to provision local ring back tones for the SBC, which the SBC plays to callers upon receipt of an alert indication without a media stream or without an indication of in-band tones.
