SBC-1X10GMP-D

SBC-4X1GMP-D

SBC 5400 RTU license to enable all four media ports. each operating at 1 Gbps.

Note: If the SBC 5400 is configured for two 1 Gbps media ports (default configuration), no license is required).

Enables ETSI/3gpp-related Lawful Intercept services.

Refer to Lawful Intercept for more information on the supported specifications and extent of support.

Enables SBC device-wide FIPS-140 supporting operation.

Notes:

• SIP session specific FIPS-140 operation requires the session to have licensed signaling & media encryption (ENCRYPT-D & SRTP-D, respectively) and FIPS-140 operations (SBC-FIPS-RTU-D).
• All sessions on any SBC device configured for FIPS-140 operation must all be licensed for SIP session specific FIPS-140 operation, as described above.

Enables SIP session-specific FIPS-140 supporting operation.

Notes:

• SIP session specific FIPS-140 operation requires the session to have licensed signaling & media encryption (ENCRYPT-D & SRTP-D, respectively).
• SIP session specific FIPS-140 operation also requires the SBC to have licensed device-wide FIPS-140 operation (SBC-FIPS-INST-D).
• All sessions on any SBC device configured for FIPS-140 operation must all be licensed for SIP session specific FIPS-140 operation, as described above.

SBC-LI-D

Enables PacketCable-related Lawful Intercept services.

Refer to Lawful Intercept for more information on the supported specifications and extent of support.

SBC-MRF-RTU-D

This license is required to enable transcoding using an external Media Resource Function (MRF) device.

The SBC-MRF-RTU-D license is not a substitute for the SBC-RTU-D session license. Both licenses are required to allow a session towards the MRF. The SBC-MRF-RTU-D license is only applicable to the S-SBC when deploying the distributed-SBC architecture.

SBC-POL-E911-D

SBC-POL-ENUM-D

SBC-POL-RTU-D

Enables on-board Advanced ERE (Embedded Routing Engine) services query support for a given SIP session (The latter is activated with the SBC-RTU-D license).

Notes:

• Ribbon recommends off-board PSX policy and routing services as opposed to the limited services available with the Advanced ERE (Refer to Routing Engines Comparison for more information).
• If Advanced ERE services are required, the count of SBC-POL-RTU-D must match the count of licensed concurrent SIP sessions (via the SBC-RTU-D) for proper operation.

Enables off-board PSX policy and routing services query support for a given SIP session (latter activated with the SBC-RTU-D).

Notes:

• Ribbon recommends off-board PSX PSX policy and routing services as opposed to the limited services available with the Advanced ERE (refer to Routing Engines Comparison for more information).
• If PSX services are required, the count of SBC-PSX-RTU-D must match the count of licensed concurrent SIP sessions (via the SBC-RTU-D) for proper operation.

Enables OOD (Out of Dialog) SIP session-related RCS (Rich Communications Services) support.

Notes:

• License key is associated with a value that identifies an OOD RCS transaction rate on a per second basis;
• Refer to Rich Communication Suite Support for more information.

SBC-RTU-D

Controls the right-to-use (RTU) for SIP sessions. The following types of media sessions are enabled:

• Pass-through audio (no DSPs)
• Pass-through audio and video (no conferencing)
• Transcoded audio

SBC-SIP-I-D

SBC-SIP323-D

SBC-SIPREC-D

Adds STIR SHAKEN-related processing on an SIP session (latter activated with the SBC-RTU-D).

Refer to STIR-SHAKEN Support for more information.

Adds Local Survivability support on an SIP session (latter activated with the SBC-RTU-D).

Refer to SIP Trunk Group - Local Survivability for more information.

SBC-VIDEO-D

DL Feature license for SIP Registrar functionality (Domain E-LIC FOR SIP-REG ON SBC Core). For DL licenses, the maximum license count is equal to the maximum registrations supported by the SBC.

The Interval statistics logic reports the peak stable registrations during an interval and stores it in the pms file. The SBC uses this logic for DL License calculations, as described below.

• The real-time stable registrations count at the start of the interval is collected.
• If at any time during the interval the stable registrations increase, that value becomes the new peak.   
• The peak stable registrations are reported for every interval and stored in the pms file.
• This count (e.g., the REG_STABLE_COUNT reported in the pms file) is used for the DL License calculation.

SRTP-D

SWE-INSTANCE-D

VDSP-RTU-D

Enables RTP media processing services in the SBC Core software based products (SBC SWe, SBC CNe).

The SBC delivers RTP media processing services through the application of the Virtual DSP (Digital Signal Processing) feature to a media session. Examples of such services include (partial list):

Transcoding

1. Example transcoding scenarios are G.711 (common codec in enterprises) ↔ G.729ab (common codec in public networks) translation, G.711 A-law ↔ G.711 µ-law normalization, etc.
2. The VDSP-RTU-D includes select codec transcoding support without additional codec specific licensing.
   1. The included codecs are G.711, G.729, T.38, G.723, G.722 variants other than G.722.2, & iLBC.     
   2. All other codecs require a supplementary license for transcode support. Examples of such codecs (partial list) are all variants of SILK, OPUS, Linear-16, EVS, EVRC, AMR-NB/AMR-WB, T.140/Text over IP, etc.
3. Refer to Supported Codecs and Transcoding for the list of codecs supported by the SBC;

Transrating

Transrating includes call legs that carry a different time sample size of media, where the SBC performs the translation. Transrating is used often when enterprises or the service provider is looking to save bandwidth by reducing packet count at the expense of voice quality (should a packet be dropped).

Silence Suppression

The SBC removes RTP packets carrying no meaningful media to save packet traffic.

Fax Call Support

1. Fax tone detection and interworking to T.38
2. G.711 fax media pass-through, as DSP intervention reduces the likelihood of in-band fax signaling/media issues

In-band ↔ Out-of-band Interworking

Required for the following:

1. In-band DTMF tone detection interworking with out-of-band RFC 4733 (supersedes RFC 2833)
2. In-band DTMF tone detection interworking with SIP INFO messages
3. Interworking RTP dynamic payload types, required when the subtended SBC peers use differing payload type identifiers from the dynamic RTP payload range (for example 96 - 127) to identify a common payload format (in other words,  codec)

Media That Originates From the SBC in Support of Call Developments

For example:

1. Announcement playback;
2. Local ringback tone;
3. Music on Hold;
4. Comfort noise.

Jitter Compensation

Used to maximize user experience with voice quality.

Notes: 

• If the VDSP-RTU-D value is non-zero, the value specifies the number of concurrent calls on the system that may receive DSP-based RTP media services. If zero, no calls receive such services.
• The VDSP-RTU-D count should be always less than or equal to SBC-RTU-D count. If not, no transcoded calls are allowed.
• Any additional emergency oversubscription is not supported for transcoded emergency calls.

Enables WebRTC-related processing on an SIP session (latter activated with the SBC-RTU-D).

Notes:

• Transcoding, encryption, and other features subject to licensing must be acquired to tailor WebRTC-related session services to use case.
• Refer to SBC for WRTC for more information.
