TLS Session Caching Configuration

TLS session caching is global for all TLS functions on your Oracle Communications 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 Communications 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.
