Usage
Use this command to set the maximum time for Diameter credit control to receive a response from its peer.
DCCA refers to this as the Tx Timer. Typically, this should be configured to a value smaller than the
response-timeout value of Diameter Endpoint Configuration Mode. That value is typically too large for
DCCA's purposes.
If DCCA gets a “no available routes” error before pending-timeout expires, then DCCA tries to send to the
secondary host (if one has been configured). If DCCA gets no response and pending-timeout expires, then
DCCA either tries the secondary host or gives up. This can now be managed using the
