AudioCodes Mediant 800B - Configuring Remote HTTP Hosts

User's Manual 292 Document #: LTRT-10632
Mediant 800B Gateway & E-SBC
Parameter Description
Verify Certificate
rest-verify-
certificates
[HTTPRemoteServices_VerifyC
ertificate]
Enables certificate verification when connection with the host is based on
HTTPS.
 [0] Disable = (Default) No certificate verification is done.
 [1] Enable = The device verifies the authentication of the certificate
received from the HTTPS peer. The device authenticates the
certificate against the trusted root certificate store associated with the
associated TLS Context (see 'TLS Context' parameter above) and if
ok, allows communication with the HTTPS peer. If authentication fails,
the device denies communication (i.e., handshake fails). The device
can also authenticate the certificate by querying with an Online
Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) server whether the certificate has
been revoked. This is also configured for the associated TLS Context.
Note: The parameter is applicable only if the connection is HTTPS.
Timeouts
Response Timeout
rest-timeout
[HTTPRemoteServices_TimeO
ut]
Defines the TCP response timeout (in seconds) from the remote host. If
one of the remote hosts does not respond to a request within the
specified timeout, the device closes the corresponding socket and
attempts to connect to the next remote host.
The valid value is 1 to 65535. The default is 5.
Keep-Alive Timeout
rest-ka-timeout
[HTTPRemoteServices_KeepAli
veTimeOut]
Defines the duration/timeout (in seconds) in which HTTP-REST keep-
alive messages are sent by the device if no other messages are sent.
Keep-alive messages may be required for HTTP services that expire
upon inactive sessions.
The valid value is 0 to 65535. The default is 0 (i.e., no keep-alive
messages are sent).
Note: The parameter is applicable only if the 'Persistent Connection'
parameter (in the table) is configured to Enable.
15.6.1.1 Configuring Remote HTTP Hosts
The HTTP Remote Hosts table lets you configure up to 10 remote HTTP hosts per Remote Web
Service. The HTTP Remote Hosts table is a "child" of the Remote Web Services table (configured
in 'Configuring Remote Web Services' on page 288).
The following procedure describes how to configure HTTP Remote hosts through the Web
interface. You can also configure it through ini file (HTTPRemoteServices) or CLI (configure
system > http-services > http-remote-hosts).
 To configure a remote HTTP host:
1. Open the Remote Web Services table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Web Services
folder > Remote Web Services).
2. In the table, select the required remote Web service index row, and then click the HTTP
Remote Hosts link located below the table; the HTTP Remote Hosts table appears.
