The following table lists the SBC feature license keys that apply in the Domain Locked (DL) environment. DL license keys contain a suffix of "-D" suffix to distinguish them from similar license keys used in Node-Locked licensing.

Feature ID

Usage
titleAbout Counts
  • Count means the feature license key has an associated integer value that denotes the number of concurrent calls/transactions per second/concurrent active SIP registrations that may receive the service denoted by the feature license key.
  • On/Off means the feature license key activates an SBC-wide service. 


TypeSBC-CNE-INSTANCE-D

This license is used to differentiate the CNF deployments from the other deployments handled by the same RAMP. Without this license, totals calls up to 47 concurrent calls are supported on a CNe deployment. The maximum active SC pods can be 47, one call per SC pod is supported. The OAM is the only pod which will connect to the license manager. In case of completion of 90 days grace period, OAM communicates the information to SC pod to stop processing the calls.

SIP-REG-D

DL Feature license for SIP Registrar functionality (Domain E-LIC FOR SIP-REG ON SBC Core). For DL licenses, the maximum license count is equal to the maximum registrations supported by the SBC.

The Interval statistics logic reports the peak stable registrations during an interval and stores it in the pms file. The SBC uses this logic for DL License calculations, as described below.

  • The real-time stable registrations count at the start of the interval is collected.
  • If at any time during the interval the stable registrations increase, that value becomes the new peak.   
  • The peak stable registrations are reported for every interval and stored in the pms file.
  • This count (e.g., the REG_STABLE_COUNT reported in the pms file) is used for the DL License calculation.

VDSP-RTU-D

Enables RTP media processing services in the SBC Core software based products (SBC SWe, SBC CNe).

The SBC delivers RTP media processing services through the application of the Virtual DSP (Digital Signal Processing) feature to a media session. Examples of such services include (partial list):

Transcoding

  1. Example transcoding scenarios are G.711 (common codec in enterprises) ↔ G.729ab (common codec in public networks) translation, G.711 A-law ↔ G.711 µ-law normalization, etc.
  2. The VDSP-RTU-D includes select codec transcoding support without additional codec specific licensing.
    1. The included codecs are G.711, G.729, T.38, G.723, G.722 variants other than G.722.2, & iLBC.     
    2. All other codecs require a supplementary license for transcode support. Examples of such codecs (partial list) are all variants of SILK, OPUS, Linear-16, EVS, EVRC, AMR-NB/AMR-WB, T.140/Text over IP, etc.
  3. Refer to Supported Codecs and Transcoding for the list of codecs supported by the SBC;

Transrating

Transrating includes call legs that carry a different time sample size of media, where the SBC performs the translation. Transrating is used often when enterprises or the service provider is looking to save bandwidth by reducing packet count at the expense of voice quality (should a packet be dropped).

Silence Suppression

The SBC removes RTP packets carrying no meaningful media to save packet traffic.

Fax Call Support

  1. Fax tone detection and interworking to T.38
  2. G.711 fax media pass-through, as DSP intervention reduces the likelihood of in-band fax signaling/media issues

In-band ↔ Out-of-band Interworking

Required for the following:

  1. In-band DTMF tone detection interworking with out-of-band RFC 4733 (supersedes RFC 2833)
  2. In-band DTMF tone detection interworking with SIP INFO messages
  3. Interworking RTP dynamic payload types, required when the subtended SBC peers use differing payload type identifiers from the dynamic RTP payload range (for example 96 - 127) to identify a common payload format (in other words,  codec)

Media That Originates From the SBC in Support of Call Developments

For example:

  1. Announcement playback;
  2. Local ringback tone;
  3. Music on Hold;
  4. Comfort noise.

Jitter Compensation

Used to maximize user experience with voice quality.


Notes: 

  • If the VDSP-RTU-D value is non-zero, the value specifies the number of concurrent calls on the system that may receive DSP-based RTP media services. If zero, no calls receive such services.
  • The VDSP-RTU-D count should be always less than or equal to SBC-RTU-D count. If not, no transcoded calls are allowed.
  • Any additional emergency oversubscription is not supported for transcoded emergency calls.
Count
WEBSOCKET-D

Enables WebRTC-related processing on an SIP session (latter activated with the SBC-RTU-D).

Notes:

  • Transcoding, encryption, and other features subject to licensing must be acquired to tailor WebRTC-related session services to use case.
  • Refer to SBC for WRTC for more information.
