SIP SA Continuous Ping Configuration

You can set the ping mode in the session agent or session constraints configuration. For backward compatibility, the default for the ping-send-mode parameter is keep-alive, or the functionality available in Release C5.1.0 and in earlier releases.

To configure the ping mode for a session agent:

1. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
   ORACLE(configure)#

2. Type session-router and press Enter.

   ORACLE(configure)# session-router
   ORACLE(session-router)#

3. Type session-agent and press Enter.

   ORACLE(session-router)# session-agent
   ORACLE(session-agent)#

   If you are adding rate constraints to an existing configuration, then you will need to select the configuration you want to edit.

4. ping-send-mode—If to want to use continuous ping mode to send ping messages to session agents in regular traffic conditions, set this parameter to continuous. If you want to use the keep-alive mode, leave this parameter set to keep-alive (default).
5. Save and activate your configuration.

   To configure the ping mode for the session constraints:

6. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
   ORACLE(configure)#

7. Type session-router and press Enter.

   ORACLE(configure)# session-router
   ORACLE(session-router)#

8. Type session-constraints and press Enter.

   ORACLE(session-router)# session-constraints
   ORACLE(session-constraints)#

   If you are adding rate constraints to an existing configuration, then you will need to select the configuration you want to edit.

9. ping-send-mode—If to want to use continuous ping mode to send ping messages to session agents in regular traffic conditions, set this parameter to continuous. If you want to use the keep-alive mode, leave this parameter set to keep-alive (default).
