Registration Caching
The Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller can cache and proxy an H.225 RegistrationRequest (RRQ) between an H.323 endpoint and a gatekeeper. Registration caching serves two functions:
- It allows aggregation of RRQs sent to a gatekeeper stack and proxies those requests through the gateway stack. If the external gatekeeper associated with the gatekeeper stack supports additive registration, the requests will be consolidated. Furthermore, if the gatekeeper supports additive registration, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller will register in an additive manner, meaning that will send additive RRQs.
- It allows the gatekeeper stack to use the registration information to route calls from other realms to endpoints in its realms.
To perform registration caching, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller must be configured with at least two stacks. One of these stacks will receive registrations (gatekeeper stack), and one stack will proxy registrations (gateway stack). The Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller caches all successful registrations and uses the cache to route calls to the endpoints.
