Rate Constraints for SIP Interfaces

To apply rate constraints to SIP interfaces, you need to configure rate constraints in the session constraints configuration and then apply the session constraints to the SIP interface where you want them used.

Note that you need to set up the parent session-constraint configuration to save any rate constraints you configure.

To configure rate constraints:

1. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
   ORACLE(configure)#

2. Type session-router and press Enter.

   ORACLE(configure)# session-router
   ORACLE(session-router)#

3. Type session-constraints and press Enter.

   ORACLE(session-router)# session-constraints
   ORACLE(session-constraints)#

   If you are adding rate constraints to an existing configuration, then you will need to select the configuration you want to edit.

4. Type rate-constraints and press Enter.

   ORACLE(session-constraints)# rate-constraints
   ORACLE(rate-constraints)#

5. method—Enter the SIP method name for the method you want to throttle. Although the parameter accepts other values, your entries should come only from the from the following list for the feature to function properly:

   • NOTIFY

   • OPTIONS

   • MESSAGE

   • PUBLISH

   • REGISTER

6. max-inbound-burst-rate—For the SIP method you set in the methods parameter, enter the number to restrict the inbound burst rate on the SIP interface where you apply these constraints. The default and minimum value is 0, and the maximum is 999999999.
7. max-outbound-burst-rate—For the SIP method you set in the methods parameter, enter the number to restrict the outbound burst rate on the SIP interface where you apply these constraints. The default and minimum value is 0, and the maximum is 999999999.
8. max-inbound-sustain-rate—For the SIP method you set in the methods parameter, enter the number to restrict the inbound sustain rate on the SIP interface where you apply these constraints. The default and minimum value is 0, and the maximum is 999999999.
9. max-outbound-sustain-rate—For the SIP method you set in the methods parameter, enter the number to restrict the outbound sustain rate on the SIP interface where you apply these constraints. The default and minimum value is 0, and the maximum is 999999999.
10. Save your changes and apply this session constraint and its rate constraint(s) to SIP interfaces.
