SIP Manipulation
You can do almost any SIP header manipulation in SIP Manipulation section in ACME SBC. I will show how to do topology hiding in Acme SBC with Header Manipulation Rules (HMRs).
SIP manipulations can be used to add, delete, store and manipulate virtually any SIP header or element. It’s functionality even extends to SDP line manipulations.
Perhaps the most popular use of SIP manipulations is to extend the built-in topology hiding manipulation ACME_NAT_TO_FROM_IP to include other headers which contain IP addresses.
Below is an example of performing topology hiding on the P-Asserted-Identity header. The first header rule calls ACME_NAT_TO_FROM_IP. This ensures that IP addresses in the To and From headers are mapped. The second header rule defines that the header P-Asserted-Identity is to be manipulated. The element rule called from this header rule replaces the IP address found in the uri-host portion of the P-Asserted-Identity header with the Net-Net SD’s configured local IP address.
