There're basically two types of SBC architectures in common use: software-based and hardware-based. The software-based ones don't scale well in terms of concurrent call media capacity (for obvious reasons), so aren't usually used by service providers. The hardware-based ones do media processing in dedicated hardware (ASICs, NPs, whatever). To date, most hardware-based SBCs that I've seen couldn't possibly do SHA-1 for STUN messages in their base hardware without either additional hardware components (which costs more money), or they have to send the STUN messages back/forth to their signaling processors on an exception path, which means the overhead isn't just the SHA-1 alone. Still, it's on the order of a few packets per call, and most hardware devices have a software processor for "exceptional processing" these days. What number of simultaneous calls per box are you envisioning? > So to be fair I shouldn't call it so much the overhead of SHA-1, as the overhead inflicted by going beyond what things like NPs can easily do by themselves (which is the SHA-1 piece). > > And this is in the context of the IPv4/v6 debate in MMUSIC, where any additional cost burden for service providers to bear to deploy IPv6 is a sunk cost with no additional revenue and thus very hard to support.
