When RTP proxy is enabled and properly configured, SIP signaling is processed by the SBC 1000/2000 the

and the audio packets are switched through the SBC without being processed by one of the SBC's DSPs.

  • Use RTP Proxy Mode when the two endpoints use a codec which is not supported by the SBC. 
    • Proxy Mode permits the endpoints to directly negotiate the codec between themselves without the SBC interfering. In other words, if the endpoints would be able to make a direct call to each other, then RTP Proxy Mode should permit the endpoints to make a call through the SBC.

  • Proxy Mode may also be used in cases where the SBC does support the codecs used by the two endpoints.
    • Calls in Proxy Mode will not receive transcoding, ringback, or music-on-hold support from the SBC.  These features require a DSP.
Warning

It is advisable to use DSP mode when the call codec is one which is supported by the SBC.  Doing so will decrease installation and interoperability problem.

Warning

Do not use Proxy Mode for Lync calls.  Lync calls require that the SBC provide ringback.

 

Advantages of Using RTP Mode

  • Allows the SBC to establish calls for codecs that it does not support.

  • Improves the calls per second (CPS) of SBC 1000/2000.

  • RTP Proxy calls use use no DSPs or SDP licenses.

  • Improves call quality.

  • Reduces internal call processing.
