SIP Registration Overload Protection Configuration

When you configure this feature, be sure to set the reg-overload-protect option in your global SIP configuration:

To enable SIP Registration overload protection on your Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller:

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

   ORACLE# configure terminal

2. Type session-router and press Enter to access the signaling-level configuration elements.

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

3. Type sip-config and press Enter. The system prompt changes to let you know that you can begin configuring individual parameters.

   ORACLE(session-router)# sip-config
   ORACLE(sip-config)#

4. options—Set the options parameter by typing options, a Space, the option name preceded by a plus sign (+) (reg-overload-protect), and then press Enter.

   ORACLE(sip-config)# options +reg-overload-protect

   If you type either of these options without the plus (+) sign, you will remove any previously configured options. In order to append the new option to the options list, you must prepend the new option with a plus sign as shown in the example above.

   Note:

   Note that the sip-config option "cache-challenges" (enabled by default) must not have been disabled for SIP Registration Overload Protection to work properly. If you have disabled cache-challenges, re-evaluate the reason you disabled it. If registration overload protection supersedes your reason for disabling cache-challenges, re-enable the option as shown below.

   ACMEPACKET(sip-config)# options +cache-challenges=yes

   Note that the configuration syntax above is equivalent to the following, which uses the "-" character to remove the option.

   ACMEPACKET(sip-config)# options -cache-challenges

5. Save and activate your configuration.
