Functional Changes

  • Update registrar features with new primary key behaviour.

    Add a RegistrationDeviceId session state field and update the RegisterRequestAndResponseToUserIdMapper. If the registrar configuration UsePrivateIdAsRegistrarDataPrimaryKey is true set RegistrationDeviceId to the private-id, else set RegistrationDeviceId to the call-id.

    Update registrar features to use the RegistrationDeviceId session state field, instead of the CallId session state field, as the primary key. (VOLTE-10057)

  • Update the Cassandra based Subscriber Identities Data Facade (CassandraBasedSubscriberIdentitiesSbb) to query tables that use the new Registrar Cassandra schema (if the registrar configuration UsePrivateIdAsRegistrarDataPrimaryKey is true). (VOLTE-10092)

  • Add boolean property UsePrivateIdAsRegistrarDataPrimaryKey to registrar configuration. The default value is false. This property is used to control if tables using the new Registrar Cassandra schema are used. (VOLTE-10054)

  • Fix error that occurs in Sentinel SIP when forwarding a request if multiple SIS RA entities are used. (VOLTE-9855)

  • Fix bug in the VerticalServiceCode feature where the home country code and/or any telephone-subscriber parameters would be stripped from a number when stripping a service code from that number. (VOLTE-10087)

  • Ensure DetermineChargeableLeg feature explicitly set the LegForCdrs for MobileForwarded call types. (VOLTE-8594)

  • Fix NPE in DetermineCallType feature for CallingParty Leg. (STLSIP-1325)

  • Fix issue with UAC session FSM when INVITE fails to send. (VOLTE-9635)

  • The Sip Play Announcement (Early Media) feature runs twice in the MMTel-Term SIP Access Response feature script. It would queue the same response twice. If the message contains SDP, it can interact badly with the SDP Monitor and cause issues with subsequent SDP negotiation. (#359032)

    • This addresses a CDIV announcement regression introduced by changes to SDP Monitor. (VOLTE-10166)

  • Update how the feature script execution context is created to support run/runcritical statements where the feature name is resolved from a session state field. (RRE-649)

  • Update StoreHeaderInfo to set the IsOCTerminatingDomainPresent flag to true if 'OC-Terminating-Domain' header is present. (#233441)

  • Update RecordTimestampsFeature to record the timestamp of an initial INVITE 180 Ringing. The timestamp is used by VolteNetworkKPI to calculate Post Dial Delay. (#195142)

  • Fix an issue in the B2BUA SCUR feature that allowed rounding errors to accumulate over time. When the rounding error accumulates to a full second value the next CCR will include a greater number of Used-Service-Units than granted in the previous CCA. (VOLTE-8788)

  • As a result of this fix the OC-Cumulative-Granted counter (present in CDRs) will report a partial second value if at some point during a session credit is invalidated.

  • Fix issue with parsing of P-Associated-URI, where earlier it was taking the entire value of the field eg. "<sip-uri>;param=val", vs now it would take only the part inside of angle braces (<sip uri>). (#257024)

  • Fix a typo in SAS bundle for 2 events in SipMidCallPlayAnnouncement feature so that the leg name is displayed in the summary as intended, and one in SipPlayAnnouncement feature so that UNABLE_TO_LINK_LEGS correctly shows the exception message if one is provided. (#257684)

  • When Normalizing numbers from national to international format, allow for the possibility that the Country Code on the output number matches the National Dial Prefix on the input number, as is commonly the case for US numbers. (VOLTE-9949)

Dependency Updates

  • Update the Sentinel Common dependency to 4.0.0.11

4.0.0.11

  • Update SDPMonitor to execute FSM on all outbound messages for a leg. Previously you could use leg.sendMessage() to send both an SDP error response and a new SDP offer in the same transaction. The offer would not be detected by the SDPMonitor feature and associate leg SDP accessors would not be updated. (VOLTE-10166)

  • Fixed an issue in SequentialForkedSDPMediation feature where a preconditions UPDATE arrives from calling party while updating preconditions in called party, causing an exception and leaving FSM in a bad state. (VOLTE-10150)

  • Add support in the leg manager for storing and retrieving the most recent INVITE 18x response on each leg, and for tracking whether there are reliable provisional responses on a leg that have yet to be acknowledged with a PRACK request. (VOLTE-10132)

  • Add support in the leg API for querying the progress of the INVITE session setup on that leg. (VOLTE-10133)

  • Add the NorthAmericanNumberingPlan feature, which examines dialled numbers based on information from the normalizer to identify numbers that are within the North American numbering plan and load additional geographic information when a geographic area code is detected. (VOLTE-9962)

Dependency Updates

  • Update the Sentinel Common dependency to 4.0.0.9

4.0.0.8

  • Added a number of ServiceInformationSessionState fields containing various aggregated and extracted values for use as sources of data for Service-Specific-Info AVPs. (VOLTE-9894)

  • Add support for including customizable Service-Specific-Info AVPs in Diameter charging messages. (VOLTE-9893)

  • Update the mid-call announcement feature so that it ignores disabled media streams (port = 0) when placing the passive party on hold. (VOLTE-9321)

4.0.0.1

  • This release is built on and requires JDK 11. It requires Rhino 3.0 or later releases.

  • Improvements to handling of reason headers on CANCEL requests. (STLSIP-1310)

    • Extended SIP leg API to make it easier for features to specify Reason headers when explicitly instructing Sentinel to generate an outbound CANCEL request.

    • Update the SIP service to populate Reason headers when automatically generating a CANCEL request due to a leg ending. The header values will match the Reason headers on the last received CANCEL request, or a default value if none have been received.

  • Modified handling of activities when a feature enters the waiting state. Previously all activities would be suspended and then activities that the feature is waiting on would be resumed, but this can cause issues when a feature has activity contexts from different transactions. So now activities will only be suspended if they will stay that way, activities that the feature is waiting on will never be suspended. (VOLTE-9290)

  • Log ICID to SAS with double quotes (STLSIP-1314) SAS requires markers to be raised with identical data for it to correlate trails. Both Clearwater and CFS raise ICID with surrounding double quotes so Sentinel is modified to do the same.

Dependency Updates

  • Update the Sentinel Common dependency to 4.0.0.1

3.1.0.4

Dependency Updates

  • Make interim CDR trigger generation overridable by subclasses (RRE-219)

  • Extend SDP rewriting to also update username, address and address-type in o= lines. (VOLTE-8789)

  • Add support in SipMidCallPlayAnnouncement feature for alternative ways of handling the passive party during an announcement. (VOLTE-9170) The feature now offers the following options, which can be chosen by features when they queue an announcement:

    • NO_HOLD: The passive party is not put on hold during the announcement, media streams are left as they were.

    • BLACK_HOLE_ONLY: SDP is renegotiated with the passive party so that for the duration of the announcement, all media streams are directed to a black hole IP.

    • FULL_HOLD: SDP is renegotiated with the passive party so that for the duration of the announcement, all media streams are directed to a black hole IP; additionally the passive party is put on hold by setting the stream status to sendonly or inactive. This is the old behaviour and remains the default.

  • If a Reason header is present on an incoming CANCEL request, it will now be copied onto any corresponding outbound CANCEL request on the linked SIP leg. Additionally, when a feature creates a new outbound CANCEL request with Reason header, the header will now be correctly included when the message is sent. (STLSIP-1301)

  • Make the Sentinel SIP service handle outstanding PRACK requests as per RFC 3262 (STLSIP-1298). Outstanding PRACK requests that match acknowledged reliable provisional responses respond with a 200 response irrespective of if a session has ended.
