CONFIGURING THE CALL
PROCESSOR
The VCX V7210 Call Processor is an application that provides call
routing as well as other call services for the VCX V7000 IP Telephony
Solution.
The Call Processor XML file (nmdb.xml) should not be modified manually
since the Call Processor writes freely to the file at run-time and requires
the Call Processor to be stopped in order to be edited. Use either CLI
commands or the Enterprise Management Suite to configure the Call
Processor instead.
Call Processor
Overview
The Call Processor handles both call processing and call routing and acts
as a SIP back-to-back user agent. This means that the Call Processor
actually serves as one active end point for each signaling leg of a call.
Call Processor
Advantages
The Call Processor advantages are:
Uses stateful routing — maintains information about a user’s session.
Designed for memory and performance utilization — recycles its own
memory and keeps track of that memory so that any problems can be
identified and fixed quickly.
Built-in diagnostics — Can be accessed through the CLI to
troubleshoot the system.
Writes one CDR — The Call Processor writes only one CDR per call
containing all information for that call, which makes the system more
efficient.
