num can be any integer value from 1 to 1000000.

Usage Guidelines

This function is intended to allow the operator to configure a network to prevent problems such as when a user gets handed back and forth between two PDIFs PDSNs a number of times during a handoff scenario.

This function operates in the following manner:

When a subscriber packet is received with a source address violation, the system increments both the IP source-violation reneg-limit and drop-limit counters and starts the timer for the IP-source violation period. Every subsequent packet received with a bad source address during the IP-source violation period causes the reneg-limit and drop-limit counters to increment.

For example, if reneg-limit is set to 5, then the system allows 5 packets with a bad source address (source violations), but on the 5th packet, it re-negotiates PPP.

If the drop-limit is set to 10, the above process of receiving 5 source violations and renegotiating PPP occurs only once. After the second 5 source violations, the call is dropped. The period timer continues to count throughout this process.

If the configured source-violation period is exceeded at any time before the call is dropped, the reneg-limit counter is checked. If the reneg-limit counter is greater than zero (0), the reneg-limit is decremented by 1. If the reneg-limit counter equals zero, the drop-limit is decremented by half.

Specifies the time that an A10 connection can exist before its registration is considered expired.

msid_with_wildcards: An MSID in which up to 16 digits have been replaced with the wildcard '$'. This defines the list of possible matches for incoming calls.

redirect: This option enables a redirect policy for overloading conditions. When a redirect policy is invoked, the PDSN service rejects new sessions with an A11 Registration Reply Code of 88H (unknown PDSN address) and provides the IP address of an alternate PDSN. This command can be issued multiple times.

address: The IP address of an alternate PDSN expressed in IP v4 dotted decimal notation. Up to 16 IP addresses can be specified either in one command or by issuing the redirect command multiple times. If you try to add more than 16 IP addresses to the redirect policy the CLI issues an error message. If you specify an IP address and weight that already exists in the redirect policy the new values override the existing values.

weight weight_num: When multiple addresses are specified, they are selected in a weighted round-robin scheme. Entries with higher weights are more likely to be chosen. If a weight is not specified the entry is automatically assigned a weight of 1. weight_num must be an integer from 1 through 10.

policy overload { redirect address [ weight weight_num ] [ address2 [ weight weight_num ] ... address16 [ weight weight_num ] ] | reject [ use-reject-code { admin-prohibited | insufficient-resources } ] }

policy service-option enforce

service-option configures R-P service-option to use for specific PDSN service. Must be followed by valid service-option number, ranging from 0 to 1000.

enforce designates enforcement of R-P service-option number.

policy unknown-cvse enforce

unknown-cvse configures PDSN service unknown cvse policy.

enforce enforces unknown cvse policy where unknown CVSEs in RRQs will cause Deny

Usage Guidelines

Policies can be implemented to dictate PDSN service behavior for various conditions such as overloading.

The system invokes the overload policy if the number of calls currently being processed exceeds the licensed limit for the maximum number of sessions supported by the system.

The system automatically invokes the overload policy when an on-line software upgrade is started.

Use the no policy { overload | service-option } command to delete a previously configured policy. If after deleting the policy setting you desire to return the policy parameter to its default setting, use the default policy command.

Caution

Incorrect configuration of the policy msid-match and policy pcf-zone-match keywords could result in sessions failing to be established. For example, if PDSN1 is configured to redirect sessions to PDSN2 while PDSN2 is configured to redirect sessions to PDSN1, a loop is created in which all sessions would fail to be connected. In addition, sessions will not be established if the PDSN to which the sessions are being redirected is unavailable.

no

If this option is used with the pdsn-code-nvse keyword, then pdsn-code-nvse configuration is disabled.

If this option is used with the wait-timeout keyword, a separate A11 timer is not used. The PDSN waits for the ppp retransmit-timeout and then sends the A11 Update. If a value is provided, then the "ppp retransmit-timeout" is ignored and a separate A11 timeout is started immediately upon sending the LCP Term-Ack. The A11 Update is then sent when the timer expires.

A value of 0 sends the A11 Update immediately after sending the LCP Term-Ack.

default

Sets/Restores default value assigned for registration-update { pdsn-code-nvse | wait-timeout }

pdsn-code-nvse

Adds the PDSN code NVSE in all A11 registration update messages.
