New Features

Session Monitor release 4.2 includes the following new features, enhancements, and changed functionality.

SIP Header Anonymization

The Operations Monitor Settings supports masking or anonymizing sensitive information in selected SIP headers before storing them in the backend database. The Mediation Engine anonymizes headers by replacing the header value with a single hyphen.

Third-Party Call Control (3PCC)

Third-Party Call Control (3PCC) servers initiate two outgoing legs to establish a single call between two parties. OCSM correlates the two SIP sessions using a custom header that is common to both outgoing legs. This feature is configurable per SBC/B2BUA device. The default value is disabled.

Password Enhancement

Software release version 4.2 and later support complexity requirements for passwords. After upgrading to 4.2 or later, the system will accept old passwords but force users to reset their password to meet the complexity requirements.

Skype For Business Filter

The Skype For Business (SFB) Filter allows you to configure which types of Skype-based communications are displayed in the Operations Monitor interface. This setting is only shown when the SFB extension is enabled during installation.
