The

This example configuration describes how to create and configure a transparency profile to transparently pass headers and message bodies using the following basic steps:

Though these steps can be performed from either the EMA or from the CLI, the description below is limited to CLI. 

1. Creating a Transparency Profile

Enter the following commands to create a transparency profile.

% set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile
% commit

2. Configuring Headers and/or Message Bodies in Transparency Profile

Perform the following steps to configure headers and/or message bodies in your transparency profile.

2.1 Configure Headers

1. Configure Transparency of "all" Headers.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipHeader all % commit

2. Configure Transparency of a specific Header with Per-Method Exclusion.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipHeader contact excludedMethods info, notify % commit

3. Configure Selective Exclusion of Transparency of Headers.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipHeader contact ignoreTransparency yes % commit

2.2 Configure Message Bodies

1. Allow a specific type of content through.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipMessageBody application/foo % commit

   Note
   icon false title Note
   This rule does not apply when combined with a rule to allow all types of content. To start out allowing all types of content through, and then excluding specific content, skip to step 2.

2. Allow all types of content through.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipMessageBody all % commit

3. Allow all types of content through in all SIP messages except select SIP methods.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipMessageBody all excludedMethods info,invite % commit

4. Allow a specific message body through in all SIP messages except certain select methods.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipMessageBody application/foo excludedMethods info,invite % commit

5. Disallow a message body from being transparently passed through.

   Code Block
   language none
   % set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile sipMessageBody application/foo ignoreTransparency yes % commit

   Note
   icon false title Note
   This rule only applies in the following cases: when combined with a rule to allow all types of content when one of the transparency flags for message bodies in the IP Signaling Profile is enabled

3. Attaching a Transparency Profile to a Trunk Group

Enter the following commands to attach a transparency profile to a trunk group:

% set addressContext testAC zone testZone sipTrunkGroup testTG services transparencyProfile testProfile
% commit

4. Enabling a Transparency Profile

To enable a Transparency Profile, enter the following commands:

% set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile state enabled
% commit

5. Viewing Transparency Profile

To view the currently configured transparency profiles, enter the following 'show' command:

% show profiles services transparencyProfile

Example:

% show profiles services transparencyProfile
transparencyProfile test {
    sipHeader all;
    sipMessageBody all;
    sipMessageBody application/foo {
        ignoreTransparency yes;
    }
    sipMessageBody application/new {
        excludedMethods invite,info;
    }
}

Appendix A. Detaching a Transparency Profile From a Trunk Group

Enter the following commands to detach a transparency profile from a trunk group:

% delete addressContext testAC zone testZone sipTrunkGroup testTG services transparencyProfile 
% commit

Appendix B. Removing a Transparency Profile

The state of the transparency profile must be disabled before any modification or deletion of the transparency profile can be made. See example below:

% set profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile state disabled
% commit

% delete profiles services transparencyProfile testProfile
% commit
