SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis

Applicable contexts

SIP Service

Prerequisite features

Determine Call Type Feature

The SIP prefix and suffix analysis feature performs prefix and suffix digit analysis on the request-URI of the received INVITE request.

Note

The SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis feature will only do analysis if;

  • the request-URI is a tel URL

  • the request-URI is a SIP URI, where the user part of the URI is a digit string.

Addresses may contain the digits allowed in a global phone number as per RFC 2806.

Sentinel has a set of configurable prefix and suffix address lists, scoped by Sentinel selection key, which are used for this digit analysis.

  • If a prefix or suffix matches an address in the request-URI, then the directive associated with the prefix (or suffix) is applied.

    • The directives are: strip prefix/suffix or retain prefix/suffix, and set session parameter with configured value.

  • If the directive is strip, then the request-URI is updated in the outgoing INVITE.

Note

The SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis feature will not do any analysis if the CallType is EmergencyCall or MobileTerminating.

Subsequent features may make additional changes to the request URI, so the final address sent in the INVITE will be dependent on those features.

Configuration

Prefix and Suffix Analysis uses Sentinel AddressLists for configuration data. See Address Lists on how to provide the configuration data.

Configuration profile naming

Configuration Profile Table Name Description Profile Naming

${PLATFORMOPERATOR}_PrefixAndSuffixAnalysisFeature_AddressListConfigurationTable

Address list configuration

${SELECTIONKEY}:SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis:SipSpecialPrefixList or ${SELECTIONKEY}:SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis:SipSpecialSuffixList

${PLATFORMOPERATOR}_PrefixAndSuffixAnalysisFeature_AddressListEntryTable

Feature specific Address List entry table

${SELECTIONKEY}:SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis:SipSpecialPrefixList:${ADDRESS} or ${SELECTIONKEY}:SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis:SipSpecialSuffixList:${ADDRESS}
Note The SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis feature address list configuration uses the same profile tables as the SS7 version of the feature. The names of the address lists are, however, particular to the SipPrefixAndSuffixAnalysis feature.

Provisioning interfaces

The feature is provisioned using the Sentinel Features REST API or web interface.
