New Features

The S-CZ9.1.5 release of the OCCSM supports the following new features and enhancements.

The S-CZ9.1.5 version of the OCCSM also inherits some of the features from the S-Cz9.1.0 version of the OCSBC. Not all of the OCSBC features are supported for S-CZ9.1.5, based on their relevance to the OCCSM. Contact your Oracle representative to verify whether specific OCSBC features are supported in S-CZ9.1.5 before attempting to deploy them.

TLS for Signaling Interfaces

This OCCSM software version supports the TLS protocol for signaling interfaces.

See the Transport Layer Security Chapter of this OCCSM Essentials Guide. Also see the TLS Cipher Updates section of this Introduction to the Core Session Manager S-CZ9.1.5 Chapter.

PCFA Retrieval

Beginning with S-Cz9.1.5p1, you can configure the OCCSM to retrieve P-Charging Function Addresses (PCFA) information from a Home Subscriber Server (HSS). The OCCSM can get this address from the HSS over the Cx interface during subscriber registration. The OCCSM, subsequently, can use PCFA addresses to populate the outgoing P-Charging-Function-Address headers it sends to an application server in INVITEs and registration success messages it sends to a P-CSCF.

See the Retrieving the P-Charging Function Address from the HSS section in the Oracle CSM Supporting the IMS Core chapter.
