SIP Profiles

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) profiles change SIP incoming or outgoing messages so that interoperability between incompatible devices can be ensured.

SIP profiles can be configured with rules to add, remove, copy, or modify the SIP, Session Description Protocol (SDP), and peer headers that enter or leave CUBE. The rules in a SIP profile configuration can also be tagged with a unique number. Tagging the rules allows you to insert or delete rules at any position of the existing SIP profile configuration without deleting and reconfiguring the entire voice-class sip profile.

Information About SIP Profiles

Protocol translation and repair is a key Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) function. CUBE can be deployed between two devices that support the same VoIP protocol (For example. SIP), but do not interwork because of differences in how the protocol is implemented or interpreted. CUBE can customize the SIP messaging on either side to what the devices in that segment of the network expects to see by normalizing the SIP messaging on the network border, or between two non-interoperable devices within the network.

Service providers may have policies for which SIP messaging fields should be present (or what constitutes valid values for the header fields) before a SIP call enters their network. Similarly, enterprises and small businesses may have policies for the information that can enter or exit their networks for policy or security reasons from a service provider SIP trunk.

Figure 2. SIP Profile



In order to customize SIP messaging in both directions, you can place and configure a CUBE with a SIP profile at the boundary of these networks.

In addition to network policy compliance, the CUBE SIP profiles can be used to resolve incompatibilities between SIP devices inside the enterprise network. These are the situations in which incompatibilities can arise:

  • A device rejects an unknown header (value or parameter) instead of ignoring it
  • A device sends incorrect data in a SIP message
  • A device does not implement (or implements incorrectly) protocol procedures
  • A device expects an optional header value or parameter, or an optional protocol procedure that can be implemented in multiple ways
  • A device sends a value or parameter that must be changed or suppressed before it leaves or enters the network
  • Variations in the SIP standards on how to achieve certain functions

The SIP profiles feature on CUBE provides a solution to these incompatibilities and customization issues.

SIP profiles can also be used to change a header name from the long form to the compact form. For example, From to f. This can be used as a way to reduce the length of a SIP message. By default, the device never sends the compact form of the SIP messages although it receives either the long or the short form.

Important Characteristics of SIP Profiles

Given below are a few important notes for SIP Profiles:

  • Copy Variables u01 to u99 are shared by inbound and outbound SIP Profiles.

  • Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Session Description Protocol (SDP) headers are supported. SDP can be either a standalone body or part of a Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) message.

  • The rules configured for an INVITE message are applied only to the first INVITE of a call. A special REINVITE keyword is used to manipulate subsequent INVITEs of a CALL.
  • Manipulation of SIP headers by outbound SIP profiles occurs as the last step before the message leaves the CUBE device; that is, after destination dial-peer matching has taken place. Changes to the SIP messages are not remembered or acted on by the CUBE application. The Content-length field is recalculated after the SIP Profiles rules are applied to the outgoing message.
  • If the ANY keyword is used in place of a header, it indicates that a rule must be applied to any message within the specified category.
  • SIP header modification can be cryptic. It is easier to remove a header and add it back (with the new value), rather than modifying it.
  • To include '?' (question-mark) character as part of match-pattern or replace-pattern, you need to press "Ctrl+v" keys and then type '?'. This is needed to treat ‘?’ as a input character itself instead of usual device help prompt.
  • For header values used to add, modify or copy a header:
    • If a whitespace occurs, the entire value must be included between double quotes. For example, “User-Agent: CISCO CUBE”
    • If double quotes occurs, a back slash must prefix the double quotes. For example, “User-Agent: \”CISCO\” CUBE”
    • Regular expressions are supported.

Inbound SIP Profile:

  • If the incoming message contains multiple instances of same header, the header values are stored as a comma separated list, and this needs to be considered while modifying it.
  • Modification by an inbound SIP profile takes place before regular SIP call processing happens so that behavior of CUBE would be as if it received the message directly without modification.

    If inbound dial peer matching fails as required information could not be extracted from headers (like Request-URI, Via, From or To) due to issues in them, global dial peers are applied. An example is a request with invalid SIP-Req-URI.

  • After modification by inbound SIP Profiles, the parameters in SIP message might change, which might change the inbound dial-peer matched when actual dial-peer lookup is done.

  • In the register pass-through feature, there is only one dial-peer for register and response. So both register from phone and response from registrar would go through the same inbound sip profile under the dial-peer if any.

Restrictions for SIP Profiles

  • Removal or addition of mandatory headers is not supported. You can only modify mandatory headers Mandatory SIP headers include To, From, Via, CSeq, Call-Id, and Max-Forwards. Mandatory SDP headers include v, o, s, t ,c, and m.
  • Addition or removal of entire Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) or (Session Description Protocol) SDP bodies from SIP messages.
  • Syntax checking is not performed on SIP messages after SIP profile rules have been applied. Changes specified in the SIP profile should result in valid SIP protocol exchanges.

  • The header length (including header name) after modification should not exceed 300 characters. Max header length for add value is approximately 220 characters. Max SDP length is 2048 characters. If any header length exceeds this maximum value after applying SIP profiles, then the profile is not applied.
  • If a header-name is changed to its compact form, SIP profile rules cannot be applied on that header. Thus a SIP profile rule modifying a header name to its compact form must be the last rule on that header.
  • We cannot modify the "image" m-line attributes (m=image 16850 udptl t38) using SIP profiles. SIP profiles can be applied only on audio and video m-lines in SDP.
  • In a high-availability (HA) scenario, SIP profiles copy variable data is not check-pointed to standby.
  • Existing limitations and restrictions of outbound SIP profiles apply to inbound SIP profiles as well.

  • You cannot configure more than 99 variables for the SIP profiles copy option.

  • Once a SIP profile is configured using rule tag, you cannot add rules without tags in the same profile and vice-versa.

How to Configure SIP Profiles

To configure SIP Profiles, you must first configure the SIP Profile globally, and apply it at either to all dial peers (globally) or to a single dial peer (dial-peer level). After a SIP profile is configured, it can be applied as an inbound or outbound profile.

    Configuring SIP Profile Using Rule Tag

    Configure SIP profile rules using the rule tag, enables you to performing the following tasks:
    • Add SIP profile request and response headers with a rule tag.

    • Modify the existing SIP profile configurations by inserting a rule at any position of the SIP profile without deleting and reconfiguring the entire SIP profile.

    • Remove a rule by specifying only rule tag.

    Below are the rule tag behaviors that needs to be considered while using rule tag in SIP profile configurations:
    • If a rule is added with the tag of an existing rule, then the existing rule is overwritten with the new rule.

    • For inserting a rule at the desired position, the SIP profile configuration should be in rule format. In case the SIP profile is in non-rule format, upgrade the SIP profiles to rule format before inserting a rule.

    • If a new rule is inserted, the new rule takes the position specified in before tag. The subsequent rules are incremented sequentially.

    • Once the rule is removed, the tag belonging to the removed rule remains vacant. The tags associated with the subsequent rules remain unchanged.

    • If a rule is added to a vacant tag, the new rule gets associated with the vacant tag and the subsequent rules remain unchanged.

              Enters global configuration mode.

               
              Step 3 voice service voip


              Example:
              Device(config)# voice service voip
               

              Enters global VoIP configuration mode.

               
              Step 4 sip

              Enters global VoIP SIP configuration mode.

               
              Step 5 sip-profiles inbound


              Example:
              Device(config-voi-sip)# sip-profiles inbound
               

              Enables inbound SIP profiles feature.

               
              Step 6Apply the SIP profile to a dial peer:
              • voice-class sip profiles profile-id inbound in the dial-peer configuration mode.
              • sip-profiles profile-id inbound in the global VoIP configuration mode


              Example:In dial-peer configuration mode
              !Applying SIP profiles to one dial peer only
              Device (config)# dial-peer voice 10 voip
              Device (config-dial-peer)# voice-class sip profiles 30 inbound 
              Device (config-dial-peer)# end
              


              Example:In global VoIP SIP mode
              ! Applying SIP profiles globally
              Device(config)# voice service voip
              Device (config-voi-serv)# sip
              Device (config-voi-sip)# sip-profiles 20 inbound
              Device (config-voi-sip)# end 
              
               
               
              Step 7 end
               

              Exits to privileged EXEC mode

              Device (config-dial-peer) end
              

              Example: Modifying a SIP, SDP, or Peer Header

              Example: Modifying SIP-Req-URI of the Header of the INVITE and RE-INVITE SIP Request Messages to include "user=phone"

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 30
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "; SIP/2.0" ";user=phone SIP/2.0"
              Device(config-class)# request RE-INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "; SIP/2.0" ";user=phone SIP/2.0"
              Device(config-class)# end
              

              Example: Modifying SIP-Req-URI of the Header of the INVITE and RE-INVITE SIP Request Messages to include "user=phone" in rule format

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 30
              Device(config-class)# rule 1 request INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "; SIP/2.0" ";user=phone SIP/2.0"
              Device(config-class)# rule 2 request RE-INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "; SIP/2.0" ";user=phone SIP/2.0"
              Device(config-class)# end
              

              Modify the From Field of a SIP INVITE Request Messages to “gateway@gw-ip-address” Format

              For example, modify 2222000020@10.13.24.7 to gateway@10.13.24.7

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 20
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header From modify "(<.*:)(.*@)" "\1gateway@"

              Modify the From Field of a SIP INVITE Request Messages to “gateway@gw-ip-address” Format in rule format

              For example, modify 2222000020@10.13.24.7 to gateway@10.13.24.7

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 20
              Device(config-class)# rule 1 request INVITE sip-header From modify "(<.*:)(.*@)" "\1gateway@"

              Replace "CiscoSystems-SIP-GW-UserAgent" with "-" in the Originator Header of the SDP in INVITE Request Messages

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 10
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sdp-header Session-Owner modify "CiscoSystems-SIP-GW-UserAgent“ "-"

              Replace "CiscoSystems-SIP-GW-UserAgent" with "-" in the Originator Header of the SDP in INVITE Request Messages in rule format

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 10
              Device(config-class)# rule 1 request INVITE sdp-header Session-Owner modify "CiscoSystems-SIP-GW-UserAgent“ "-"

              Convert "sip uri" to "tel uri" in Req-URI, From and To Headers of SIP INVITE Request Messages

              For example, modify sip:2222000020@9.13.24.6:5060” to “tel:2222000020

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 40
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "sip:(.*)@[^ ]+" "tel:\1"
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header From modify "<sip:(.*)@.*>" "<tel:\1>"
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header To modify "<sip:(.*)@.*>" "<tel:\1>"

              Convert "sip uri" to "tel uri" in Req-URI, From and To Headers of SIP INVITE Request Messagesin rule format

              For example, modify sip:2222000020@9.13.24.6:5060” to “tel:2222000020

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 40
              Device(config-class)# rule 1 request INVITE sip-header SIP-Req-URI modify "sip:(.*)@[^ ]+" "tel:\1"
              Device(config-class)# rule 2 request INVITE sip-header From modify "<sip:(.*)@.*>" "<tel:\1>"
              Device(config-class)# rule 3 request INVITE sip-header To modify "<sip:(.*)@.*>" "<tel:\1>"

              Example: Change the Audio Attribute Ptime:20 to Ptime:30

              Inbound ptime:

              a=ptime:20
              

              Outbound ptime:

              a=ptime:30
              
              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 103
              Device(config-class)# request ANY sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=ptime:20" "a=ptime:30"
                

              Example: Modify Audio direction "Audio-Attribute"

              Some service providers or customer equipment reply to delay offer invites and or re-invites that contain a=inactive with a=inactive, a=recvonly, or a=sendonly. This can create an issue when trying to transfer or retrieve a call from hold. The result is normally one-way audio after hold or resume or transfer or moh is not heard. To resolve this issue changing the audio attribute to Sendrecv prevents the provider from replaying back with a=inactive, a=recvonly, or a=sendonly.

              Case 1:

              Inbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=inactive
              
              Outbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=sendrecv
              

              Case 2:

              Inbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=recvonly
              
              Outbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=sendrecv
              

              Case 3

              Inbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=sendonly
              
              Outbound Audio-Attribute
              
              a=sendrecv
              
              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 104
              Device(config-class)# request any sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=inactive" "a=sendrecv"
              Device(config-class)# request any sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=recvonly" "a=sendrecv"
              Device(config-class)# request any sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=sendonly" "a=sendrecv"
              
              Device(config-class)# response any sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=inactive" "a=sendrecv"
              Device(config-class)# response any sdp-header Audio-Attribute modify "a=recvonly" "a=sendrecv"

              Device (config-dial-peer) voice-class sip profiles 30

              Example: Remove a SIP, SDP, or Peer Header

              Remove Cisco-Guid SIP header from all Requests and Responses

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 20
              Device(config-class)# request ANY sip-header Cisco-Guid remove
              Device(config-class)# response ANY sip-header Cisco-Guid remove
              Device(config-class)# end

              Remove Server Header from 100 and 180 SIP Response Messages

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 20
              Device(config-class)# response 100 sip-header Server remove
              Device(config-class)# response 180 sip-header Server remove

              Upgrading SIP Profiles

              Before upgrading a SIP Profile

              Device#voice class sip-profiles 1
                Device#request INVITE sip-header Contact Modify “(.*)” “\1;temp=xyz”
                Device#request INVITE sip-header Supported Add “Supported: ”
                Device#voice sip sip-profiles upgrade
              

              After Upgrading a SIP Profile

              Device#voice class sip-profiles 1
                Device#rule 1 request INVITE sip-header Contact Modify “(.*)” “\1;temp=xyz”
                Device#rule 2 request INVITE sip-header Supported Add “Supported: ”
              

              Downgrading SIP Profiles

              Before downgrading a SIP Profile

              Device#voice class sip-profiles 1
                Device#rule 1 request INVITE sip-header Contact Modify “(.*)” “\1;temp=xyz”
                Device#rule 2 request INVITE sip-header Supported Add “Supported: ”
                Device#voice sip sip-profiles downgrade
              

              After downgrading a SIP Profile

              Device#voice class sip-profiles 1
                Device#request INVITE sip-header Contact Modify “(.*)” “\1;temp=xyz”
                Device#request INVITE sip-header Supported Add “Supported: ”
              

              Example: Modifying Diversion Headers

              Example: Modify Diversion Headers from Three-Digit Extensions to Ten Digits.

              Most service providers require a ten digit diversion header. Prior to Call manager 8.6, Call manager would only send the extension in the diversion header. A SIP profile can be used to make the diversion header ten digits.

              Call manager version 8.6 and above has the field “Redirecting Party Transformation CSS” which lets you expand the diversion header on the call manager.

              The SIP profile will look for a diversion header containing "<sip:5..." , where ... stands for the three-digit extension and then concatenates 9789365 with these three digits.

              Original Diversion Header:

              Diversion:<sip:5100@161.44.77.193>;privacy=off;reason=unconditional;counter=1;screen=no

              Modified Diversion Header:

              Diversion: <sip:9789365100@10.86.176.19>;privacy=off;reason=unconditional;counter=1;screen=no
              
              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 101
              Device(config-class)# request Invite sip-header Diversion modify "<sip:5(...)@" "<sip:9789365\1@"
              Device(config-class)# end
              

              Example: Create a Diversion header depending on the area code in the From field

              Most service providers require a redirected call to have a diversion header that contains a full 10 digit number that is associated with a SIP trunk group. Sometimes, a SIP trunk may cover several different area codes, states, and geographic locations. In this scenario, the service provider may require a specific number to be placed in the diversion header depending on the calling party number.

              In the below example, if the From field has an area code of 978 "<sip:978", the SIP profile leaves the From field as is and adds a diversion header.

              Device(config)# voice class sip-profiles 102
              Device(config-class)# request INVITE sip-header From modify "From:(.*)<sip:978(.*)@(.*)" "From:\1<sip:978\2@\3\x0ADiversion: <sip:9789365000@10.86.176.19:5060;privacy=off;reason=unconditional;counter=1;screen=no"
                

              The below diversion header is added. There was no diversion header before this was added:

              Diversion: <sip:9789365000@10.86.176.19:5060;transport=udp>"

              Example: Sample SIP Profile Application on SIP Invite Message

              The SIP profile configured is below:

              voice class sip-profiles 1
                request INVITE sdp-header Audio-Bandwidth-Info add "b=AS:1600“
                request ANY sip-header Cisco-Guid remove
                request INVITE sdp-header Session-Owner modify "CiscoSystems-SIP-GW-UserAgent" "-“
              

              The SIP INVITE message before the SIP profile has been applied is show below:

              Example: Sample SIP Profile for Non-Standard SIP Headers

              Prior to Cisco IOS Release 15.5(2)T, there was no method to add, copy, delete, or modify any non-standard SIP headers like 'X-Cisco-Recording-Participant' using SIP profiles. The SIP profile will look for the new option "WORD" that allows the user to change any non-standard SIP header.

              voice class sip-profiles 1
              request INVITE sip-header X-Cisco-Recording-Participant copy "sip:(.*)@" u01 
              request INVITE sip-header X-Cisco-Recording-Participant modify "sip:sipp@" "sip:1000@"  
              request INVITE sip-header My-Info add "My-Info: MF Call" 
              request INVITE sip-header My-Info remove
