Headers may be configured in compact form and transparently passed using a Transparency Profile. It is advisable to configure both compact and long formats to ensure both types of received headers in the PDU are transparently passed.


IMPORTANT

Ribbon recommends using the Transparency Profile to configure transparency on the SBC Core for new deployments, as well as applying additional transparency configurations to existing deployments. Do not use IP Signaling Profile flags in these scenarios because the flags will be retired in upcoming releases.

Refer to the SBC SIP Transparency Implementation Guide for additional information.
