Configuring SIP Ping OPTIONS Support

You can configure the Oracle Communications Unified Session Manager to respond to SIP ping OPTIONS. This support is typically configured on an S-CSCF so it can respond to pings OPTIONS sent by a P-CSCF:

To configure an SIP Options Ping response support:

1. From superuser mode, use the following command sequence to access ping-response command on a sip-interface element.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
   ORACLE(configure)# session-router
   ORACLE(session-router)# sip-interface
   ORACLE(sip-interface)# sel

2. Enable the support with the ping-response command.

   ORACLE(http-config)# ping-response enabled
   ORACLE(http-config)# done

   ping-response—Enable ping-response to allow your device to respond to ping OPTIONS. For example, this feature is useful within hybrid deployment environments on a P-CSCF as a means of verifying the S-CSCF’s availability. This configuration allows the S-CSCF to respond to SIP ping OPTIONS.
