IMG 1010 - Translate SI and PI - SIP to SS7

 

 

Feature F-5636 gives a user the ability to decide whether the screening indicator, presentation indicator, or both will be passed through to the SS7 IAM Calling Party number unchanged or passed through with overridden values that are configured through the Advanced Originating Number Parameter object. The feature is supported only when SIP Privacy is enabled and a call is received by the IMG from the SIP network and is transmitted to the SS7 network. Because the feature modifies the behavior of the IMG, a field has been added that can disable or enable the new functionality. The default setting in the ClientView GUI is Disable which forces the IMG to interwork the parameters as it did before the feature was introduced. Refer to the links below for more information regarding this feature.

Configuration

The procedure below describes the objects that need to be configured for this feature to function. The procedure assumes that all Basic Configuration have already been created and configured. Additional functionality such as SS7 needs to be configured. Before proceeding verify the basic functionality has been created and configured.

Configure SIP SGP Profile and enable SIP Privacy

  • Right click on the Profiles object and select New SIP SGP. Once SIP SGP pane is created, change the SIP Profile ID to something other than '0'. The SIP SGP object with a 0 in the SIP Profile ID field is a default profile and cannot be modified. Once the ID has been modified, the individual fields in the SIP SGP object can be modified.

  • Within the SIP SGP object, is a SIP Privacy field. Enable SIP Privacy in the SIP SGP object by selecting ON from the drop down menu in this field. Refer to IMG 1010 - SIP Profile - 10.5.3 topic for more information on configuring the remaining individual fields within this object.

Configure SIP Privacy to Remote-Party Only in SIP Signaling

  • Right click on the IMG Name physical node object and select New Signaling. The Signaling object is a parent or container object and no configuration is needed here. Refer to the IMG 1010 - Signaling Object topic for more information on this object.

  • Right click on the Signaling object just created and select New SIP. In the Privacy Support field select Remote-Party onlyfrom the drop down menu. Refer to the IMG 1010 - SIP Signaling Object topic for more information on configuring each of the remaining fields within this object.

  • Right click on the ISUP Group object and select New Circuits. Refer to the IMG 1010 - Circuit Group topic for information on configuring the CICs.

Configure Remote SIP Gateway

  • Right click on the Dialogic IMG EMS object and select New External Network Elements. The External Network Elements object is a parent or container object and no configuration is needed here. Refer to the IMG 1010 - External Network Elements topic for more information on this object.

  • Right click on the External Network Elements object and select New External Gateways. Again, the External Gateways object is a parent or container object and no configuration is needed here. Refer to the IMG 1010 - External Gateways topic for more information on this object.

  • Right click on the External Gateways object and select New External Gateway. Enter a name that identifies this gateway.

  • Select SIP from the drop down menu in the Gateway Signaling Protocol field and enter an IP address that will be used to communicate with this gateway.
