Syntax
gtpp max-retries max_attempts
default gtpp max-retries
default
Resets the maximum number of to the default of 4.
max_attempts
Specifies the number of times the system attempts to communicate with a CGF that is not responding as an
integer from 1 to 15. Default: 4
integer from 1 to 15. Default: 4
Usage
This command works in conjunction with the gtpp detect-dead-server and gtpp timeout parameters to set a
limit to the number of communication failures that can occur with a configured CGF.
When the value specified by this parameter is met, a failure is logged. The gtpp detect-dead-server
parameter specifies the number of consecutive failures that could occur before the server is marked as down.
In addition, the gtpp timeout command controls the amount of time between re-tries.
If the value for the max-retries is met, the system begins storing CDRs in Random Access Memory (RAM).
The system allocates memory as a buffer, enough to store one million CDRs for a fully loaded chassis (a
maximum of one outstanding CDR per PDP context). Archived CDRs are re-transmitted to the CGF until
they are acknowledged or the system’s memory buffer is exceeded.
Refer to the gtpp detect-dead-server and gtpp timeout commands for additional information.
