The integrated SBC of an ASR can function as a stateful SIP proxy which allows peering with multiple ASR's, multiple service providers, and higher session capacity. The ASR also lets you create rules for things such as DoS attacks (H.323 or SIP excessive registration attempts) and demote the offending host.
