Mediant 1000B Gateway & E-SBC
The device also generates the response code when it rejects a call based on Quality
of Service rules due to crossed Voice Quality and Bandwidth thresholds (see
''Configuring Quality of Service Rules'' on page 324). If the response code is
configured in the table and the device rejects a call due to threshold crossing, it
searches in the IP-to-IP Routing table for an alternative routing rule.
818 Signalling Limits Exceeded: The device generates the response code when it
rejects a call based on Quality of Service rules due to crossed ASR, NER or ACD
thresholds (see ''Configuring Quality of Service Rules'' on page
324). If the response
code is configured in the table and the device rejects a call due to threshold crossing,
it searches in the IP-to-IP Routing table for an alternative routing rule.
Note:
• If the device receives a SIP 408 response, an ICMP message, or no response,
alternative routing is still performed even if the code is not configured in the
Alternative Routing Reasons table.
• SIP requests belonging to an SRD or IP Group that have reached the call limit
(maximum concurrent calls and/or call rate) as configured in the Call Admission
table are sent to an alternative route if configured in the IP-to-IP Routing table for
the SRD or IP Group. If no alternative routing rule is located, the device
automatically rejects the SIP request with a SIP 480 (Temporarily Unavailable)
response.
The following procedure describes how to configure the Alternative Routing Reasons table
through the Web interface. You can also configure it through ini file
(SBCAlternativeRoutingReasons) or CLI (configure voip > sbc routing sbc-alt-routing-
reasons).
To configure SIP reason codes for alternative IP routing:
1. Open the Alternative Routing Reasons table (Setup menu > Signaling & Media tab >
SBC folder > Routing > Alternative Reasons).
2. Click New; the following dialog box appears:
Figure 34-6: Alternative Routing Reasons Table - Dialog Box
3. Configure a SIP response code for alternative routing according to the parameters
described in the table below.
4. Click Apply.
