TLS Session Caching Configuration

TLS session caching is global for all TLS functions on your Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller. A new global TLS configuration (tls-global) has been added to the system for this purpose.

To enable global TLS session caching:

  1. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
  2. Type security and press Enter to access the signaling-level configuration elements.
    ORACLE(configure)# security
    ORACLE(security)#
  3. Type tls-global and press Enter.
    ORACLE(security)# tls-global
    ORACLE(tls-global)#
  4. session-caching—Set the state for TLS session caching to enabled if you want to turn this feature on. The default value is disabled. The valid values are:
    • enabled | disabled

  5. session-cache-timeout—Enter the time in hours that you want the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller to cache unique session identifiers so that previously authenticated clients can reconnect. The default value is 12. A value of 0 disables this parameter. The valid range is:
    • Minimum—0

    • Maximum—24

      If you set this parameter to 0, then cache entries will never age (and not be deleted from the cache unless you use the clear-cache tls command to delete all entries from the TLS cache). RFC 2246, The TLS Protocol Version 1.0, recommends that you set this parameter at the maximum, 24.
