media-manager-config

This media-manager-config element defines parameters used in the media steering functions performed by the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller including the flow timers.

Parameters

state
Enable or disable media management functionality
  • Default: enabled
  • Values: enabled | disabled
latching
Enable or disable the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller obtaining the source of the first packet received for a dynamic flow. This parameter is only applicable to dynamic flows. If packet source is unresolved, but Oracle Communications Session Border Controller expects a packet, it will use newly arrived packet’s source address if latching is enabled. All subsequent packets for the dynamic flow must come from the “latched” source address; otherwise, the packets are dropped.
  • Default: enabled
  • Values: enabled | disabled
flow-time-limit
Enter the total time limit in seconds for the flow. The Oracle Communications Session Border Controller notifies the signaling application when this time limit is exceeded. This field is only applicable to dynamic flows. A value of 0 seconds disables this function and allows the flow to continue indefinitely.
  • Default: 86400
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
initial-guard-timer
Enter the time in seconds allowed to elapse before first packet of a flow arrives. If first packet does not arrive within this time limit, Oracle Communications Session Border Controller notifies the signaling application. This field is only applicable to dynamic flows. A value of 0 seconds indicates that no flow guard processing is required for the flow and disables this function.
  • Default: 300
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
subsq-guard-timer
Enter the maximum time in seconds allowed to elapse between packets in a flow. The Oracle Communications Session Border Controller notifies the signaling application if this timer is exceeded. This field is only applicable to dynamic flows. A field value of zero seconds means that no flow guard processing is required for the flow and disables this function.
  • Default: 300
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
tcp-flow-time-limit
Enter the maximum time in seconds that a media-over-TCP flow can last
  • Default: 86400
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
tcp-initial-guard-timer
Enter the maximum time in seconds allowed to elapse between the initial SYN packet and the next packet in a media-over-TCP flow
  • Default: 300
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
tcp-subsq-guard-timer
Enter the maximum time in seconds allowed to elapse between all subsequent sequential media-over-TCP packets
  • Default: 300
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
tcp-number-of-ports-per-flow
Enter the number of ports, inclusive of the server port, to use for media over TCP. The total number of supported flows is this value minus one.
  • Default: 2
  • Values: Min: 2 / Max: 5
hnt-rtcp
Enable or disable support of RTCP when the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller performs HNT. If disabled, the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller will only do RTP for endpoints behind a NAT. If enabled, the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller will add a separate CAM entry for the RTCP flow so that it can send the RTCP back to the endpoint behind the NAT.
  • Default: disabled
  • Values: enabled | disabled
algd-log-level
Select the log level for the appropriate process
  • Default: notice

  • Values:
    • notice
    • emergency
    • critical
    • major
    • minor
    • warning
    • notice
    • info
    • trace
    • debug

Select the percentage of the untrusted bandwidth reserved for specific application messages. Currently the only supported application message is NCS.
  • Default: 0
  • Values: Min: 1 / Max: 100
tolerance-window
Enter the tolerance window size in seconds used to measure host access limits.
  • Default: 30
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 999999999
untrusted-drop-threshold

Percent drop count threshold for untrusted hosts at which the system generates an alarm.

  • Default: 0 (Disabled)

trusted-drop-threshold

Percent drop count threshold for trusted and dynamic trusted hosts at which the system generates an alarm and, assuming associated configuration, an SNMP trap.

  • Default: 0 (Disabled)
  • Values: Min: 0 / Max: 100
acl-monitor-window

The time window, after which the system resets its ACL drop counters, and generates a trap if trusted or untrusted ACLs have exceeded their configured drop threshold.

Path

Path: media-manager-config is an element under the media-manager path. The full path from the topmost ACLI prompt is: configure terminal , media-manager, media-manager.

Note:

This is a single instance configuration element.

Option

unique-sdp-id
Enables or disables codec negotiation by updating the SDP session ID and version number. When enabled, the Oracle Communications Session Border Controllerwill hash the session ID and IP address of the incoming SDP with the current date/time of the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller in order to generate a unique session ID.
