Description

egressRemoveEnudmi

NA

Controls whether the SBC removes the enumdi (ENUM dip indicator) parameter from the egress Request-URI that the SBC inserts when the PSX does an ENUM query. The options are:

disabled (default) - The SBC includes the enumdi parameter in the egress Request-URI when the PSX does an ENUM query.

enabled - The SBC does not include the enumdi parameter in the egress Request-URI even if the PSX does an ENUM query.

egressRNParam

N/A

Enable this flag to send a Redirecting Number Information Element (RNIE) in the egress leg of the call per RFC3398 when the R-URI and the To header differ.

disabled
enabled (default)

loopDetectionFeature

N/A

When enabled, the SIP Stack performs loop detection on incoming INVITE messages.

disabled – The SIP signaling group processes the INVITE message.
enabled (default)

maxPduSizeValue

N/A

The maximum PDU size recognized by the

Spacevars

0	product

:

pdusize2kb – 2,048 bytes
pdusize3kb – 3,072 bytes
pdusize6kb – 6,000 bytes
pdusize15kb (default) – 15,000 bytes
pdusize32kb – 32,000 bytes
pdusize60kb – 60,000 bytes

multipleContactsPerAor

Use this flag to support multiple contacts per Address Of Record (AoR).

disabled – Only a single contact per Address of Record is supported.
enabled (default) – The SBC maintains different RCBs for each new registration and verifies the source IP address and port during Registration Control Block (RCB) lookup.

Excerpt Include

	Multiple Contacts per AoR
	Multiple Contacts per AoR
nopanel	true

NOTE: Refer to Multiple Contacts per AoR feature page for additional details.

NOTE: Even though the default value of multipleContactsPerAor is "enabled", during an upgrade the value can be either "enabled" or "disabled".

registrarSupportContactParam

N/A

Enable flag to support parameters in the Contact header:

disabled – Parameters in the Contact header are not supported. This value is provided only for backwards compatibility.
enabled (default) – Parameters in the Contact header are supported.

send503DuringSwitchover

N/A

Use this flag to control the sending of 503 message during a switchover.

disabled – The request is dropped with no 503 messages sent for Invites.
enabled (default) – Send 503 message during a switchover.

NOTE: The Retry-after tag is set to 60 seconds once the 503 message is sent.

sendDeRegisterContactAsStar

N/A

Enable this flag to allow the

Spacevars

0	product

to send the Contact header as a star (*) in DEREGISTER messages if multipleContactsPerAor is disabled.

disabled
enabled (default)

sendSurrogateUnRegAfterReboot

N/A

Enable flag to trigger de-register messages to all AORs configured to use the Surrogate Registration feature after a reboot.

disabled (default)
enabled

suppressErrorInfoHdr

N/A

Enable flag to suppress Error-Info header in a response to a request message with syntax error.

disabled (default) – The SBC includes Error-info header in the response.
enabled – The SBC does not include Error-Info header in an error status.

surrogateRegisterPacingTime

0-10000

Use this parameter to specify the time gap, in milliseconds, between a final response of surrogate register and the next surrogate register message sent across all peers. (default = 0, disabled)

If surrogate registration is active and you wish to disable pacing, first disable surrogate registration for each peer using following command syntax:

Code Block

language	none

% set addressContext <AC name> zone <zone name> ipPeer <peer name> surrogateRegistration state disabled

NOTE: Please research the feature to fully understand pacing semantics before using it. This setting is not required in generic deployments. Pacing is applied to all surrogate REGISTER requests generated for all surrogate AoRs.

ucidNodeId

1-32767

UCID Node Id used to generate the UCID in the User-to-User Header. (default = 0)

Command Example

To display the global configuration of all SIP signaling control parameters:

offerAnswerTimer

10 - 300 seconds

Specify the number of seconds for the

Spacevars

0	product

to wait for the Offer-Answer handshake to complete before timing out.

Once configured, the

Spacevars

0	product

uses this value for all subsequent calls.

For backward compatibility, set the offerAnswerTimer to its default value for SIP signaling gateway.

Default: 20 seconds

Note:

The offerAnswerTimer flag applies to calls modified using a Re-INVITE, but not for an UPDATE.

Command Example

Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC)

SRVCC provides the ability to transition a voice call from the VoIP/IMS packet domain (LTE) to the legacy circuit domain. Variations of SRVCC are being standardized to support both GSM/UMTS and CDMA 1x circuit domains. For an operator with a legacy cellular network who wishes to deploy IMS/VoIP-based voice services in conjunction with the rollout of an LTE network, SRVCC offers VoIP subscribers with coverage over a much larger area than would typically be available during the roll-out of a new network.
