Rate limits

The rate_limits resource controls per-second and per-minute SIP packet rates at the SBC — for registrations, INVITEs, and total packet volume. It is NOT a REST/HTTP API rate limiter.

rate_limits controls SIP packet rates at the Session Border Controller, not REST API throughput. If you're looking for HTTP API throttling guidance, see the note at the bottom of this page — Vinix has not published API rate limits yet.

The rate_limits resource caps incoming SIP packets per second and per minute for an account, a device, or the cluster.

    }
  }
}

The account section caps SIP packets for the entire account (realm).
The device section caps SIP packets for every device under the account that doesn't have a device-level override.
Both sections accept registrations, invites, and total_packets keys under per_minute and per_second.

Operations

Method	Path	Purpose
GET	`/accounts/{id}/rate_limits`	Read account-level limits
POST	`/accounts/{id}/rate_limits`	Update account-level limits
DELETE	`/accounts/{id}/rate_limits`	Remove account-level limits
GET	`/accounts/{id}/devices/{device_id}/rate_limits`	Read device-level limits
POST	`/accounts/{id}/devices/{device_id}/rate_limits`	Update device-level limits
DELETE	`/accounts/{id}/devices/{device_id}/rate_limits`	Remove device-level limits

Cluster-wide limits are configured at the infrastructure layer and are not exposed via the public API.

What about HTTP API rate limits?

Vinix has not published REST/HTTP API rate-limit numbers. Operators set HTTP-level limits at the load balancer or reverse-proxy layer; defaults are not advertised.

If you're planning a high-volume integration, contact [email protected] for current operational limits before going to production.
