The global servers object allows you to configure ENUM and E911 servers as well as

...

global DNS, call recording criteria and SRS Group Profile configurations. The 'servers' object includes global configurations for DNS servers used for SIP NAPTR, SRV, and A-record lookups.

When the ERE receives multiple records with the same order value and preference for a NAPTR query, the ERE considers only the first record received to resolve the route. If it does not find a route for the chosen record, it returns a 'no route found' response, and will not consider other records to resolve the route.

However, in the case where the order value and preference are different for the received records, the record chosen to resolve the route is based on the RFC rule. In this scenario, if the ERE/PSX does not find the route for the chosen record, it returns a 'no route found' response, and will not consider other records to resolve the route.

The ENUM server returns a NAPTR response with an IP address to the SBC. To route a call to the IP Peer associated with this IP address, ensure the following is provisioned in ERE.

Configure a SIP Domain with the IP address of the IP Peer.
Create an IP Peer using the IP address above, and associate this IP peer to a routing label.
Configure a Username Routing entry using SIP Domain from step 1, and attach the routing label created in step 2.

The SBC supports load balancing across ENUM servers for individual ENUM zones using enumDomainName, lwresdProfile and enumDomainNameLabel parameters described in this section. ENUM client routes the query to ENUM servers based on the load balancing scheme configured for that zone. ENUM client uses the following load balancing schemes to route the requests to ENUM servers. For details, refer to ENUM Support.

retransmissionCount – Global retransmission count limit for DNS iterations of server requests. (range: 0-20 / default = 2).
retransmissionTimer – Global retransmission timer value (in milliseconds) for DNS iterations of server requests. (range: 100-10000 / default = 500)
timeouts – Global number of time outs for blacklisting a DNS Server. (range: 0-32 / default = 0).

...

Use the following command to enable EDNS support:

...

(Refer to Servers - DNS Global - CLI for parameter details)
`e911`	N/A	Use this parameter to configure enhanced 911 service.

...

<e911_service_name>
criteria triggerCriteria <criteria>
defaultTreatment– Default treatment to apply for requests that time out.
- applyFinalTreatment
- routeAsDialed (default)
flags active
- disable (default)
- enable
requestTimeOut – (range: 0-2147483647 / default = 4000)
routePrecedence– Routing treatment to apply in the event that a location for the caller cannot be determined, either “Local” or “Last Routing Option” (LRO).
- local
- lro (default)

...

(Refer to Servers - E911 - CLI for parameter details)
`e911VpcDevice`	N/A	Use this object to configure the IP address and port number of the E911 VoIP Positioning Center (VPC) device. This parameter is used for queries to one or more E911 VPCs for the Emergency Services Routing Number of the Public Services Answering Point nearest the current location of the caller.

...

(Refer to Servers - E911 - CLI for parameter details)
`enumDomainName`	1-63 characters

...

The name of the ENUM domain containing forwarderIP entries for load balancing.

forwardersData <priority #> – Priority or sequence number of each forwarderIP defined below. A lower value represents a higher priority. This value is unique for each forwarderIP. (range: 0-99999).
- forwarderDescription <description> – Textual description of each fowarderIP entry.
- forwarderIP <IPv4 or IPv6 address> – ENUM server IPv4 or IPv6 address of this forwarderIP entry.
loadDistribution – Load distribution strategy. See ENUM Support for details.
- proportion
  - percentageDistribution – The percentage of load distribution to calculate for each IP in enumDomainName (range: 0-99999).
- roundRobin
- sequence (default)
queryRetryTimer – The time, in milliseconds, that SLWRESD process waits before trying the next IP in the forwardersData list (range: 0-10000 | default = 4000).
zoneType individual – The zone type for this ENUM domain (At present, "individual" is the only zone type available, and it indicates SBC supports load balancing across individual zones).

Note
All `forwarderIP` entries for this `enumDomainName` must be configured with the same `loadDistribution` type and `queryRetryTimer` value because attributes apply to ENUM domain, not individual `forwarderIP` entries.

Info
See ENUM Support for additional feature details and descriptions.

(Refer to Servers - ENUM - CLI for parameter details)

enumService

A collection of ENUM domains used by SLWRESD process for performing ENUM queries. The default enumDomainNameLabel value is "DEFAULT_ZONE_LABEL".

enumDomainNameId <enumDomainName's name> – The enumDomainName of each ENUM domain to attach to this enumDomainNameLabel.

(Refer to Servers - ENUM - CLI for parameter details)
`lwresdProfile`	N/A

...

Global ENUM Service Parameters

To support ENUM services for SBC in ERE mode, manually create an ACL rule towards ENUM server to allow the packets (ENUM responses) from ENUM server into SBC. See the CLI example below.

Note
Set `fillRate` to a higher value (for example, `fillRate` = 2000) to support high ENUM call loads (more than 20 cps). See IP Access Control List - CLI for configuration details.

3	Global ENUM Service Parameters

Parameter	Length/Range	Description
`<service_name>`	1-23	ENUM Service name.
`criteria`	1-23	`triggerCriteria <criteria>` – Trigger criteria to use for this ENUM Service. The characters #%^&(){}<>,/\;`[]=!$"*?\|~ and SPACE are not allowed.
`defaultTreatment`	N/A	Default treatment to apply to this ENUM Service. `applyFinalTreatment` `routeAsDialed` (default)
`enumDefinitions`		Use this parameter to specify how to treat ENUM definitions. `privateDomainNameForEnumLookups <private_domain_name>` – Specify the private domain name to use for ENUM look-ups.
`flags`		`active` `disable` (default) `enable` `processCallingNumber` –Enable this flag to analyze the calling number using prefix profile. When this flag is disabled, the calling number is not analyzed and hence if it has +CC, the same is sent as-is to SBC in the calling number field in policy response. `disable` (default) `enable` `processNewANI` – When this flag is enabled for ENUM AoR service, and ENUM AoR response contains "`newani=<some_number>`" parameter in NAPTR record, the ERE overwrites the existing calling number of the call with the `newANI` number. When this flag is disabled, any `newANI`parameters received in NAPTR response are ignored in PES. `disable` (default) `enable`
`priority`	129-140	Specifies the priority (order) of ENUM service execution. If this parameter is not set or set to the default of '129', default priorities are assigned for LNP (130), CNAM (131) and SIP AoR (132). If a different order of service execution is desired, set the priorities accordingly. For example, setting CNAM priority to 133 executes SIP AoR before CNAM.
`requestTimeOut`	0-2147483647	Request timeout value, in milliseconds. (default = 2000)
`serviceType`	N/A	Use this parameter to specify the ENUM service type. Options are: `cnam` `lnp` `sipAor`
