PAI or PPI Header in Incoming and Outgoing SIP Calls

Prior to the introduction of the PAI or PPI Header in Incoming and Outgoing SIP Calls feature, the P-Asserted-Identity (PAI) or the P-Preferred-Identity (PPI) privacy header was supported for outgoing calls at the global level. The PAI or PPI Header in Incoming and Outgoing SIP Calls feature is an enhancement to support PAI or PPI header for incoming and outgoing calls at the global level and dial-peer configuration mode.

This module describes how to enable support for the PAI or the PPI privacy header in incoming and outgoing Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) requests or response messages.

Information About PAI or PPI Header in Incoming and Outgoing SIP Calls

PAI or PPI Header Overview

For incoming SIP requests or response messages, when the PAI or PPI privacy header is set, the SIP gateway builds the PAI or PPI header into the common SIP stack, thereby providing support to handle the call data present in the PAI or PPI header. To process the data from the PAI or PPI header of incoming SIP calls, we recommend that you enable the asserted ID for the incoming dial peer.

For outgoing SIP requests or response messages, when the PAI or PPI privacy header is set, privacy information is sent using the PAI or PPI header.


Note

If the PAI or PPI asserted ID is not enabled either in dial-peer configuration mode or at the global level, the call data present in the PAI or PPI header of incoming SIP calls is ignored.

Support for PAI or PPI Header at the Global Level

At the global level, the support for the PAI or PPI header in incoming and outgoing calls is provided using the asserted-id command. The asserted-id command enables the support for generating the PAI or PPI header, or the Remote-Party-ID (RPID) or FROM header data, to populate outbound calling information.

Support for PAI or PPI Header in Dial-Peer Configuration Mode

In dial-peer configuration mode, the support for the PAI or PPI header in incoming and outgoing calls is provided using the voice-class sip asserted-id command. The voice-class sip asserted-id command enables the support for generating the PAI or PPI header, or the Remote-Party-ID (RPID) or FROM header data, to populate outbound calling information.

How to Configure PAI or PPI Header in Incoming and Outgoing SIP Calls

Configuring the PAI or PPI Privacy Header at the Global Level

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. enable
  2. configure terminal
  3. voice service voip
  4. sip
  5. asserted-id {pai | ppi }
  6. end

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

enable

Example:


Router> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

configure terminal

Example:


Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

voice service voip

Example:


Router(config)# voice service voip

Enters voice service VoIP configuration mode.

Step 4

sip

Example:


Router(conf-voi-serv)# sip

Enters voice service VoIP-SIP configuration mode.

Step 5

asserted-id {pai | ppi }

Example:


Router(conf-serv-sip)# asserted-id pai

Configures the privacy header for incoming and outgoing SIP requests and response messages.

  • pai --Specifies the PAI type privacy header.

  • ppi --Specifies the PPI type privacy header.

Step 6

end

Example:


Router(conf-serv-sip)# end

Exits voice service VoIP-SIP configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Configuring the PAI or PPI Privacy Header in Dial-Peer Configuration Mode

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. enable
  2. configure terminal
  3. dial peer voice tag
  4. voice-class sip asserted-id {pai | ppi | system }
  5. end

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

enable

Example:


Router> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

configure terminal

Example:


Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

dial peer voice tag

Example:


Router(config)# dial peer voice 1

Enters dial-peer configuration mode.

Step 4

voice-class sip asserted-id {pai | ppi | system }

Example:


Router(config-dial-peer)# voice-class sip asserted-id pai

Configures the privacy header for incoming and outgoing SIP requests and response messages.

  • pai --Specifies the PAI type privacy header.

  • ppi --Specifies the PPI type privacy header.

  • system --Uses the global-level configuration settings to configure the dial peer.

Step 5

end

Example:


Router(config-dial-peer)# end

Exits dial-peer configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.
