CAC Profiles

Call Admission Control (CAC) is the practice or process of regulating traffic volume in voice communications, usually reflected by a maximum number of allowed simultaneous sessions in the network.

The ARM allows you to define CAC Profiles that can later be attached to ‘customer’ entities (Teams Super Trunk tenants), Peer Connections and VoIP Peers, giving you another way to balance and control the number of sessions throughout the entire network and to prevent oversubscription.

The CAC Profiles page enables operators to optionally add a CAC profile to be later attached (for example) per ‘customer’ entity (see also Defining a ‘Customer’ Entity (Teams Tenant)).

You can limit the

■

incoming Peer Connection / Customer or the connected VoIP Peer
