Mediant 1000 Gateway & E-SBC | User's Manual
Parameter Description
â– If you are configuring the Proxy Sets with IP addresses, it is
highly recommended to configure each Proxy Set with a unique
IP address. Configuring multiple Proxy Sets with the same IP
address can cause problems classifying incoming SIP requests
to source IP Groups based on Proxy Set. If you have configured
multiple Proxy Sets with the same IP address, the device uses
the Proxy Set with lowest Index number. For example, if you
have configured Proxy Set ID #1 and Proxy Set ID #4 with the
same IP address, the device uses Proxy Set ID #1 to classify
the incoming SIP request to an IP Group.
However, configuring multiple Proxy Sets with the same IP
address, but with different SIP Interfaces is acceptable for clas-
sifying incoming SIP requests to source IP Groups based on
Proxy Set.
For more information on determining the Proxy Set, see the
'Classification Input' parameter (above) parameter .
'Transport Type'
transport-type
[ProxyIp_
TransportType]
Defines the transport type for communicating with the proxy.
â– [0] UDP
â– [1] TCP
â– [2] TLS
â– [-1] = (Default) Not configured. The transport type is according
to the settings of the global parameter, SIPTransportType.
'Proxy Priority'
priority
[ProxyIp_Priority]
Defines the priority of the proxy. When a proxy server goes offline,
the device attempts to connect to an online proxy server that has
the highest priority.
The valid value is 0 to 65535, where 0 is the highest priority and
65535 the lowest. The default is 0.
Note:
â– You must configure both priority and weight (or none of them).
In other words, if you configure this parameter, you must also
configure the 'Proxy Random Weight' parameter. If you don't
configure this parameter, you must also not configure the
'Proxy Random Weight' parameter.
â– If weight and priority are not configured for any of the proxy
servers of the Proxy Set, the order in which the addresses (IP
addresses and FQDNs) are listed in the table determine their
priority (i.e., top-listed address has the highest priority).
â– For FQDNs, weight and priority of DNS-resolved IP addresses
are determined by the DNS. However, this parameter's value
overrides the priority received from the DNS.
â– If you have configured at least one of the proxy servers of the
Proxy Set with weight and priority, the device prioritizes all the
configured proxy servers according to weight and priority. In
this case, proxy servers that are not configured with priority
(i.e., 0) are considered as proxy servers with the highest
priority.
