Mediant 1000B Gateway & E-SBC
Parameter Description
ï‚§ Each row must be configured with a unique name.
ï‚§ The parameter is mandatory.
Address
rest-address
[HTTPRemoteHosts_Address]
Defines the address (IP address or FQDN) of the remote
host.
The valid value is a string of up to 80 characters.
Note:
ï‚§ An IPv6 address can only be configured if the
interface is a CONTROL type.
ï‚§ If the address is an FQDN and the DNS resolution
results in multiple IP addresses, the device device
attempts to establish multiple connections (sessions)
for each IP address. Only the first 10 resolved IP
addresses are used regardless of the number of
hosts.
ï‚§ FQDN resolution is also performed (immediately)
when connection is subsequently "closed" (by timeout
or by the remote host) and connections are updated
accordingly. In addition, the device periodically (every
15 minutes) performs DNS name resolution to ensure
that the list of resolved IP addresses has not
changed. If a change is detected, the device updates
its' list of IP addresses and re-establishes
connections accordingly.
ï‚§ In addition to multiple HTTP sessions, the device
establishes multiple (TCP) connections per session,
thereby enhancing data exchange capabilities with
the host.
Port
rest-port
[HTTPRemoteHosts_Port]
Defines the port of the host.
The valid value is 0 to 65535. The default is 80.
Interface
rest-interface
[HTTPRemoteHosts_Interface]
Assigns one of the device's IP network interfaces
through which communication with the remote host is
done.
By default, no value is defined and the OAMP interface
is used.
Transport Type
rest-transport-type
[HTTPRemoteHosts_HTTPTransportType]
Defines the protocol for communicating with the remote
host:
ï‚§ [0] HTTP (default)
ï‚§ [1] HTTPS
Status
http-host-state

the remote host.
ï‚§ "Connected": The hosts is connected.
ï‚§ "Disconnected": The host is disconnected.
