Call Processing
For call processing, incoming calls are matched to a DNIS group and the customer profile associated
with that DNIS group. If a match is found, the customer profile session and overflow limits are applied
and if available, the required resources are allocated. If a DNIS group is not found, the customer profile
associated with the default DNIS group is used. The call is rejected if a customer profile using the default
DNIS group cannot be found.
After the call is answered and if VPDN is enabled, the Cisco RPM checks the customer profile for an
assigned VPDN group or profile. If a VPDN group is found, Cisco RPM authorizes VPDN by matching
the group domain name or DNIS with the incoming call. If a match is found, VPDN profile session and
overflow limits are applied, and, if the limits are not exceeded, tunnel negotiation begins. If the VPDN
limits are exceeded, the call is disconnected.
If no VPDN profile is assigned to the customer profile and VPDN is enabled, non-RPM VPDN service
will be attempted. If it fails, the call is processed as a retail dial service call if local AAA service is
available.
Base Session and Overflow Session Limits
Cisco RPM enables you to set base and overflow session limits in each customer profile. The base
session limit determines the maximum number of nonoverflow sessions supported for a customer profile.
When the session limit is reached, if overflow sessions are not enabled, any new calls are rejected. If
overflow sessions are enabled, new sessions up to the session overflow limit are processed and marked
as overflow for call handling and accounting.
