  Mediant 800B Gateway & E-SBC 
Parameter  Description 
configure voip > sbc settings > sbc-dialog-
subsc-route-mode 
[SBCInDialogSubscribeRouteMode] 
Enables the device to route in-dialog, refresh SIP 
SUBSCRIBE requests to the "working" (has 
connectivity) proxy. 
  [0] = (Default) Disable – the device sends in-
dialog, refresh SUBSCRIBES according to the 
address in the Contact header of the 200 OK 
response received from the proxy to which the 
initial SUBSCRIBE was sent (as per the SIP 
standard). 
  [1] = Enable – the device routes in-dialog, refresh 
SUBSCRIBES to the "working" proxy (regardless 
of the Contact header). The "working" proxy 
(address) is determined by the device's keep-alive 
mechanism for the Proxy Set that was used to 
route the initial SUBSCRIBE. 
Note: For this feature to be functional, ensure the 
following: 
  Keep-alive mechanism is enabled for the Proxy 
Set ('Proxy Keep-Alive' parameter is set to any 
value other than Disable). 
  Load-balancing between proxies is disabled 
('Proxy Load Balancing Method' parameter is set to 
Disable
). 
configure voip > sbc settings > sbc-max-fwd-
limit 
[SBCMaxForwardsLimit] 
Defines the Max-Forwards SIP header value. The 
Max-Forwards header is used to limit the number of 
servers (such as proxies) that can forward the SIP 
request. The Max-Forwards value indicates the 
remaining number of times this request message is 
allowed to be forwarded. This count is decremented 
by each server that forwards the request.   
The parameter affects the Max-Forwards header in 
the received message as follows:  
  If the received header’s original value is 0, the 
message is not passed on and is rejected. 
  If the received header’s original value is less than 
the parameter's value, the header’s value is 
decremented before being sent on. 
  If the received header’s original value is greater 
than the parameter's value, the header’s value is 
replaced by the user-defined parameter’s value. 
The valid value range is 1-70. The default is 10.  
SBC Session-Expires 
configure voip > sbc settings > sbc-sess-exp-
time 
[SBCSessionExpires] 
Defines the SBC session refresh timer (in seconds) in 
the Session-Expires header of outgoing INVITE 
messages.  
The valid value range is 90 (according to RFC 4028) 
to 86400. The default is 180. 
Minimum Session-Expires 
configure voip > sbc settings > min-session-
expires 
[SBCMinSE] 
Defines the minimum amount of time (in seconds) 
between session refresh requests in a dialog before 
the session is considered timed out. This value is 
conveyed in the SIP Min-SE header.
