Remote Site Survivability
Release E-C[xz]6.4.0 M2 includes a new feature called Remote Site Survivability. This feature is the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller’s ability of a Remote Office/Branch Office (ROBO) to detect the loss of communication over SIP-based telephony, to the Enterprise’s core call processing Data Center. When loss of communication is detected over the SIP service, the ROBO Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller dynamically switches into Survivable Mode, locally handling call processing and providing limited additional server functionality.

Remote Site Survivability supports SIP only. It does not support the H.323.The following are features of Remote Site Survivability:
