Bandwidth CAC for Media Release

The bandwidth CAC for media release feature adds per-realm configuration that determines whether or not to include inter-realm calls in bandwidth calculations. When you use this feature, the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller’s behavior is to count and subtract bandwidth from the used bandwidth for a realm when a call within a single site has its media released. When you do not enable this feature (and the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller’s previous behavior), the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller does not subtract the amount of bandwidth.

In other words:

  • When you enable this feature, an inter-realm media-released call will decrement the maximum bandwidth allowed in that realm with the bandwidth used for that call.
  • When you disable this feature (default behavior), and inter-realm media-released call will not decrement the maximum bandwidth allowed for that call.
