CSCun62685 - CCR-U is retried even if server-retries configured as zero

Applicable Products: GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, SAEGW

Feature Changes

Behavioral Changes to Server Retry Configuration in OCS Unreachable State

Previous Behavior: . When the CLI command “

servers-unreachable

...” in the Credit Control Configuration

mode was configured with

server-retries

as 0, CCR-U was retried one last time to confirm that the OCS is indeed

unreachable.

But this was only done for the Interim-Volume scenario and it was against the configuration.

New Behavior: If no retries are configured for CCR-U volume-exhausted case, the server-unreachable-action will be
taken immediately without any server retry.
