Holidays

This section explains how to configure holidays on the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller.

You can define holidays that the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller recognizes. Holidays are used to identify a class of days on which a local policy is enacted. All configured holidays are referenced in the local-policy-attributes configuration subelement as an H in the days-of-week parameter. Because holidays are entered on a one-time basis per year, you must configure a new set of holidays yearly.

Holidays Configuration

To configure holidays:

In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.
```
ORACLE# configure terminal
```
Type session-router and press Enter to access the system-level configuration elements.
```
ORACLE(configure)# session-router
```
Type session-router-config and press Enter. The system prompt changes to let you know that you can begin configuring individual parameters.
```
ORACLE(session-router)# session-router-config
ORACLE(session-router-config)#
```
Type holidays and press Enter. The system prompt changes to let you know that you can begin configuring individual parameters.
```
ORACLE(session-router-config)# holidays
ORACLE(session-router-holidays)#
```
From this point, you can configure the holidays subelement. To view all holidays parameters, enter a ? at the system prompt.
```

                date                           2005-01-01

```
To configure a holiday, add an entry for the following parameters in the holidays element:
