IMPORTANT

Ribbon recommends using the Transparency Profile to configure transparency on the SBC Core for new deployments, as well as applying additional transparency configurations to existing deployments. Do not use IP Signaling Profile flags in these scenarios because the flags will be retired in upcoming releases.

Refer to the SBC SIP Transparency Implementation Guide for additional information.

Signaling

Transparency Profile at the egress Trunk Group (TG_AS)

A transparency profile with “all” header is configured and associated with SIP trunk group TG_AS.

Configuration details:

% set profiles services transparencyProfile TP_AS sipHeader all
% set profiles services transparencyProfile TP_AS state enabled
% commit

% set addressContext AC1 zone ZONE_AS sipTrunkGroup TG_AS services transparencyProfile TP_AS
% commit

The  following  IPSP  flag “disableHostTranslation” has to be enabled to ensure that the host part of Request-URI, To, From headers is not replaced by SBC.

SIP Domain Flags for Require-URI header:

  • useSipDomainNameInRequestUri
  • preserveIngressRUriDomainName

SIP Domain Flags for From header:

  • useSipDomainNameInFromField
  • preserveIngressFromDomainName

DHT flag flag in IP Signaling Profile is disableHostTranslation.

Media

The SBC has the ability to anchor the following  media types:

  • Audio
  • Video Main
  • Video Extended – for Content Share
  • Binary Floor Control Protocol ( UDP and TCP)
  • Far End Camera Control ( FECC)
  • Message Session Relay Protocol ( MSRP)

For all the above mentioned media types (with the exception of Audio), the SBC consumes (i.e. does not transparently relay) the following attributes required to anchor the media:

  1. C line
  2. RTCP attributes
  3. Media direction ( a= sendrecv/sendonly/inactive/recvonly)
  4. Crypto  (the SBC terminates SRTP on a leg by leg basis)

For Audio, in addition to the above mentioned, the SBC does not transparently relay the following:

To achieve the above described behavior, enable Video (assign a valid video bandwidth) and Audio transparency by associating the following configuration with both Trunk Groups:

% set profiles media packetServiceProfile <packetServiceProfileName> packetToPacketControl transcode transcoderFreeTransparency
% set addressContext <addressContextName> zone <zoneName> sipTrunkGroup <trunkGroupName> media sdpAttributesSelectiveRelay enabled
% set profiles media packetServiceProfile <packetServiceProfileName>  videoCalls maxVideoBandwith <bandwidth>

Example of SDP transparency with both the flags enabled the SDP relayed by SBC.

Transparency is not supported for attributes in blue font.

The SIP Domain flags do not have any effect on Request-URI,  From header.  If request-uri transparency is configured in transparency profile, transparency is achieved if DHT flag was enabled. If not, SBC replaced the host with the IP Peer.
