Steps to Creating an Effective SMM Translation

Step 1: Add a Condition Rule

If there are any conditions for the SMM Rule, add a Condition Rule.

...

Examples include:

1. • Only on a particular phone number

   • Only a specific header (name)


In the example below, the Called Number must be 'anonymous'. This condition will be applied later in the SIP Message Rule.

Panel1a: Add a Condition Rule
1b:

Select a Match Type Token value; this states the SIP Packet element (diversion number, IP address, etc.) for the match. Then, complete of the remainder which provides the value you desire to match.

Step 2: Select SIP Packets to be changed

Decide which type of SIP packets are to be changed (All Messages, All Requests, All Responses, Select Messages). The types of SIP packets to be changed is selected when the SMM Message Rule Table is created.

...

...

...

1. Panel2a: Add a the SIP Message Rule Table.
2. 2b: Select Configure which SIP Messages messages will be examined by this Rule Table.
3. Configure whether the 2c: Will this SMM Table will be Mandatory or Optional within in the Signaling Group?What .

Step 3: Select SIP Packet element

...

1. Click the name of the newly created SMM Table in the left-hand navigation tree, then add an SMM Rule entry.

2. Which type of Rule? Use the diagram below!

   Panel3: Add one of the Rule Types:

   Select rule type: Header, Request, Status, or Raw

Step 4: Identify which rule section corresponds to the SIP element to be changed

1. Add SIP Header Rule.

2. For Header Value, configure the URI User. For example,

   you want to change.Example: If you wanted

   to change the FROM number to something other than anonymous

   
   

   (i.e, From

Step 5: Select Type of Change to be made

Configure the rule to correspond with the manipulation you require.

   Panel5a: Select the Result Type. This setting operates exactly the same as the Translational Table optional/mandatory.
3. 5b: Set the Action to Add, Remove, Copy, or Modify. The available options will vary based upon the type of rule you're adding. If you think about it, you can't _add a Request URI or Status Line; the SIP packet already has one, right?
4. 5c: For a Header Rule, you'll need supply Configure a Header Name (either from the pre-progammed list or by simply typing the name of the header if it doesnisn't appear in the list). Request and Status Rules address only the Request and Status headers, so ; those rules don't require the user to pick do not require a header to be chosen.
   
5. 5d: Configure the target rule setting. In the case of the example for For example, when changing any calling number of anonymous to 1000, set the User URI info Info to Modify and add the configuration/value you want for the SIP element changed to.
6. 5e: If you created a Condition in Step 1, add it to the Rule entry now . In this example, the SMM will only execute if the Calling Number is 'anonymous'.

7. Select the appropriate type of change to be made.

Configure the new rule into either a Signaling Group or Call Route (SMM Rules can be processed either ingress or egress at the Signaling Group).
