Cause

There is no license for Routing and Load-balancing.

The components of the Net-Net 4000 SBC software are licensed by Oracle , Inc. for your use. In order to use these components and deploy their related services in a network, the SBC must have a valid license for each of them. Licenses can be activated and deactivated in real time, and are fully extensible and upgradable. They are tied to specific Net-Net 4000 SBCs (by serial number) and cannot be transferred from one Net-Net 4000 SBC to another. Multiple licenses can be active on the same Net-Net 4000 SBC simultaneously. If the same feature happens to be covered by more than one license, then the latest expiration date applies.

Total session capacity: 2000

In this case, the show features output shows there is no license for Routing and Load-balancing.

Solution

To resolve this behavior, the SBC requires a routing license to specify multiple policy attributes per local policy, and to specify the remainder of the parameters in the policy attributes configuration, which are:

carrier—Carrier for the policy.
start-time—Daily time this policy goes into effort.
end-time—Daily time this policy is not longer in effect.
days-of-week—Days of the week this policy is in effect.
cost—(Unitless) cost for the policy.
state—State of the local policy attributes.
media-profiles—List of media profiles to use for this policy.

Load balancing

Establishes distribution of traffic across gateways, application servers, softswitches, etc. Its required for the for the session-group configuration. Need to generate license key for routing and load-balancing and install in the system to function as required.
