Overview

Use the profile SIP Adaptive Transparency Profile  to configure SIP header transparency for P-ASSERTED-IDENTITY.

When the profile is enabled for a Trunk Group and the SBC receives an updated P-ASSERTED-IDENTITY header as part of SIP Request Methods (INVITE/UPDATE), or in SIP Responses (200/180/183), the SBC relays the SIP message transparently to the other leg of the call. 

Note that SIP privacy handling takes precedence over the  SIP Adaptive Transparency Profile.

Feature Precedence and Backward Compatibility

The SBC gives precedence to SIP Privacy handling when the SIP Adaptive Transparency Profile is enabled. For example, if the incoming SIP message has "privacy: Id" and the flag Apply Privacy Id under Profiles > Services > Privacy Profile is set to Enabled, the SBC does not include P-ASSERTED-ID header in the egress message.

For more information on Privacy Profile, refer to the following pages:

 Several flags prevent the SBC from relaying a re-INVITE, or an UPDATE, to the other leg of the call. When you enable such flags, the behavior is contradictory to that of the SIP Adaptive Transparency Profile. 

To resolve such conflicts, the SBC gives precedence to the SIP Adaptive Transparency Profile over the following flags:

  • Parent Object: Profiles > Signaling > IP Signaling Profile > Common IP Attributes > Flags
    • Relay Data Path Mode Change From Other Call Leg
    • Minimize Relaying Of Media Changes From Other Call Leg All
    • Disable Media Lock Down
    • Lock Down Preferred Codec
    • Call Hold Interworking 
  • Parent Object: Address Context > Zone > SIP Trunk Group > Signaling
    • Sdp 100rel Iwk For Prack 
    • Rel100 Support
  • Parent Object: Address Context > Zone > SIP Trunk Group > Media
    • Late Media Support
