PrimarySIPServer

Description

The IP address or DNS name of the Primary Server used to make outgoing SIP calls. This Server may be used for both Proxy and Registrar services. The default is null.

See the note on configuration of the Tenor S Survivable SIP Gateway below.

Basic Configuration

If you choose to enter a SIP Configuration, you must enter the IP address or Domain Name of the primary server used to make outgoing SIP calls.

Guidelines

When configured for Primary and Secondary Servers, the following occurs:

1. INVITE is sent to Primary Server.

2. If Server does not respond, the INVITE is sent 4 more times (total=5).

3. After the 5th attempt fails (no response to INVITE), then the call fails.

4. On the next call attempt, the Secondary Server is used.

5. The Quintum UA sends periodic OPTIONS messages to the Primary Server to see if it has “come back.”

6. The Quintum UA will continue to use the Secondary Server until either the Primary comes back (responds to OPTIONS msgs w/200-OK) or the Secondary does not respond.

7. Going from Secondary to Primary Server is the same as steps 1-4 above (5 attempts and call fail, attempt Primary Server on next call attempt).

Note

For the Tenor S Survivable SIP Gateway

To route calls with the Tenor S, you must enter the IP address and port of any SIP Proxy you are using in a SIP Signaling Group as either the Primary or Secondary SIP Server.
