Version 7.2  383  Mediant 800B Gateway & E-SBC 
 
User's Manual   17. Control Network 
Parameter  Description 
  Incoming calls: If the 'Transport Type' parameter (in this table) 
is set to TLS 
and the incoming call is successfully classified to an 
IP Group based on the Proxy Set, this TLS Context is used. If the 
'Transport Type' parameter is set to UDP or classification to this 
Proxy Set fails, the TLS Context is not used. Instead, the device 
uses the TLS Context configured for the SIP Interface (see 
'Configuring SIP Interfaces' on page 
357) used for the call; 
otherwise, the default TLS Context (ID 0) is used. 
  Outgoing calls: If the 'Transport Type' parameter is set to TLS 
and the outgoing call is sent to an IP Group that is associated 
with this Proxy Set, this TLS Context is used. Instead, the device 
uses the TLS Context configured for the SIP Interface used for 
the call; otherwise, the default TLS Context (ID 0) is used. If the 
'Transport Type' parameter is set to UDP, the device uses UDP 
to communicate with the proxy and no TLS Context is used.  
To configure TLS Contexts, see 'Configuring TLS Certificate 
Contexts' on page 113. 
Keep Alive 
Proxy Keep-Alive 
proxy-enable-keep-alive 
[ProxySet_EnableProxyKeepAl
ive] 
Enables the device's Proxy Keep-Alive feature, which checks 
communication with the proxy server. 
  [0] Disable (default). 
  [1] Using OPTIONS = Enables the Proxy Keep-Alive feature 
using SIP OPTIONS messages. The device sends an OPTIONS 
message every user-defined interval, configured by the 'Proxy 
Keep-Alive Time' parameter (in this table). If the device receives 
a SIP response code that is configured in the 'Keep-Alive Failure 
Responses' parameter (in this table), the device considers the 
proxy as down. You can also configure whether to use the 
device's IP address or string name ("gateway name") in the 
OPTIONS message (see the UseGatewayNameForOptions 
parameter). 
  [2] Using REGISTER = Enables the Proxy Keep-Alive feature 
using SIP REGISTER messages. The device sends a 
REGISTER message every user-defined interval, configured by 
the RegistrationTime parameter (Gateway application) or 
SBCProxyRegistrationTime parameter (SBC application). Any 
SIP response from the proxy - success (200 OK) or failure (4xx 
response) - is considered as if the proxy is "alive". If the proxy 
does not respond to INVITE messages sent by the device, the 
proxy is considered as down (offline).  
Note: 
  Proxy keep-alive using REGISTER messages (Using 
REGISTER option) is applicable only to the Parking redundancy 
mode ('Redundancy Mode' parameter configured to Parking). 
  For Survivability mode for User-type IP Groups, you must enable 
this Proxy Keep-Alive feature. 
  If you enable this Proxy Keep-Alive feature and the proxy uses 
the TCP/TLS transport type, you can enable CRLF Keep-Alive 
feature, using the UsePingPongKeepAlive parameter. 
  If you enable this Proxy Keep-Alive feature, the device can 
operate with multiple proxy servers (addresses) for redundancy 
and load balancing (see the 'Proxy Load Balancing Method'
