Configuring a SIP Reason Group

Operators can define several ‘SIP reasons groups’ in the upper section of the Alternative Routing SIP Reasons page (Settings > Routing > Alternative Routing SIP Reasons). By default, there is a ‘Primary SIP reason group’ attached and activated for the entire ARM (for all ARM Peer Connections). Additional groups can be defined, either from scratch or duplicated from an existing group, and later attached to a specific Peer Connection (or several Peer Connections). Operators can:

■

Add a new group (with an empty SIP reasons table)

■

Duplicate group

●

Change the name of the group.

●

View the SIP reasons section and select/unselect the values.

■

Edit group

●

Edit the name and description of the group.

●

Delete group (the default ‘SIP reason group’ cannot be deleted)

●

Refresh

Each 'SIP reason group' has the following properties:

■

Name

■

Description

■

Peer Connection that contains the ‘SIP reason group’.

➢

To add a SIP Reason Group:

1.

In the upper section of the Alternative Routing SIP Reasons page (Settings > Routing > Alternative Routing SIP Reasons), click Add.

2.

When adding (or editing) a group, provide a name for the group and an optional description.

3.

Select a group and then select a SIP Response.

4.

Click the edit icon to view and edit the group’s SIP reason that is then displayed.

5.

To duplicate an existing SIP Reason Group, select the group to duplicate and from the 'Actions' drop-down, select Duplicate.

6.

Provide a new unique name and an optional description to facilitate effective management later.

7.

Attach a newly-defined SIP reason group to one or more Peer Connections (using both Add and Edit screens), either in the Network Map page or from the Peer Connections page:

Attach a SIP Reason Group to Peer Connection/s

8.

View the 'SIP reason group' in the Peer Connections Summary in the Peer Connections page (Network > Peer Connections). The indication of Peer Connection associated with the group is shown in the 'Alternative SIP Reason' column.
