SIP rule condition detail

Route rules direct SIP requests that match the condition to the selected cluster. The condition setting specifies which SIP messages match the rule. Rules only apply to the initial message of a SIP conversation and not all SIP traffic. Use this panel to create or modify a rule.

  • Routing rules are not needed in cases where there is only one cluster running SIP. To view this console page, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere proxy servers > proxy_server_name > SIP Proxy Server Settings > Routing rules > target_cluster > Conditions > New.
