Mediant 2600 E-SBC
• Changes the SIP Contact header to the device's own address.
• Layer-3 topology hiding by modifying source IP address in the SIP IP header.
SIP normalization: The device supports SIP normalization, whereby the SBC
application can overcome interoperability problems between SIP user agents. This is
achieved by the following:
• Manipulation of SIP URI user and host parts.
• Connection to ITSP SIP trunks on behalf of an IP-PBX - the device can register
and utilize user and password to authenticate for the IP-PBX.
Survivability:
• Routing calls to alternative routes such as the PSTN.
• Routing calls between user agents in the local network using a dynamic database
(built according to registrations of SIP user agents).
Routing:
• IP-to-IP routing translations of SIP, UDP, TCP, TLS (when extensive transcoding
is not required).
• Load balancing and redundancy of SIP servers.
• Routing according to Request-URI\Specific IP address\Proxy\FQDN.
• Alternative routing.
• Routing between different Layer-3 networks (e.g., LAN and WAN).

The device's SBC application can implement multiple SIP signaling and RTP (media)
interfaces.
