In-Realm Codec Manipulation

In addition to being able to apply codec policies in realms, the realm configuration supports a setting for determining whether codec manipulation should be applied to sessions between endpoints in the same realm.

In-realm codec manipulation can be used for simple call flows that traverse two realms. If the originating and terminating realms are the same, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller checks to see if you have enabled this capability. If you have enabled it, then the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller performs the specified manipulations. If this capability is not enabled, or if the realm’s media management in realm (mm-in-realm) setting is disabled, then the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller does not perform codec manipulations.

For more complex calls scenarios that involve call agent or reinitiation of a call back to the same realm, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller does not perform in-realm codec manipulation.
