H.248 Packages—Signaling and Control
The data border element (DBE) deployment of the Integrated Session Border Controller (SBC) for the
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers supports standard H.248 packages that are used to make the Cisco ASR
1000 Series Router function as the DBE in distributed mode. H.248 packages are described or
cross-referenced in this chapter.
For a complete description of commands used in this chapter, see the Cisco IOS Integrated Session
Border Controller Command Reference.

Enabling Optional H.248 Packages
H.248 profiles define option values, sets of packages, naming conventions, and other details for an entire
set of applications. The SBC DBE deployment for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers currently supports
only one such profile, SBC_GateControl. The SBC_GateControl profile, a Cisco internal profile based
on ITU-T Recommendation H.248.1 Version 2, defines functionality between the DBE and the MGC.
While all mandatory items in the profile are supported automatically by the DBE, it is possible to
configure the optional Enhanced Root (eroot) package to interoperate with the MGC/SBE. The eroot
package is a proprietary package for the transport of the location ID and media gateway (MG) ID from
the signaling border element (SBE).
For more information on the Cisco H.248 profile, see the “Cisco H.248 Profile” section on page 2-14.
