Static Flows
This chapter describes the
Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller’s static flows feature. Static flows allow network traffic that matches specific criteria to pass through the
Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller unrestricted. Static flows are unidirectional. This feature lets you steer traffic toward a particular destination based on its original characteristics. Static flows can range from being widely accessible to very restrictive, depending on the values you establish. Static flows are used for transporting a variety of signaling messages through the
Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller to achieve vendor interoperability. The
Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller supports the following types of Static flows:
- IPv6 to IPv6 flows
- IPv4 to IPv6 flows
- IPv4 to IPv4 flows
Note:
Traffic that traverses the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller in two directions, such as ICMP requests and responses, requires static flows configured for both directions.
