Session Management for SIP, H.323, and IWF

Using the session management feature, you can display and manage SIP, H.323, and IWF sessions using a range of new ACLI commands. You can choose to view summary or detailed displays.

If you choose to terminate a session that is already in progress, the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller tears down the session and returns:

SIP BYE with a reason header naming administrative preemption as a cause, and where the cause code is 3
H.323 Disconnect with Q.850 disconnect cause code 8, preemption

Note that if your system is carrying a heavy traffic load, it could take a good amount of time to display or clear sessions. When you use these commands, a reminder will appear about the fact that it can take up to thirty seconds for the command to complete.

Displaying Sessions

You can display SIP, H.323 and IWF sessions using the ACLI show <protocol type> sessions command. This command now takes the following additional arguments:

all—Displays all SIP or H.323 sessions for the protocol you specify.
by-agent—When entered with the name of a configured session agent, displays session information for the specified session agent: adding iwf to the very end of the command shows sessions for IWF; adding detail to the very end of the command expands the displayed information
by-ip—When entered with the IP address of an endpoint, displays session information for the specific endpoint; adding iwf to the very end of the command shows sessions for IWF; adding detail to the very end of the command expands the displayed information
Entries for the IP address portion of this command must be enclosed in quotation marks ()
by-user—When entered with the calling or called number, displays session information for the specified user; adding iwf to the very end of the command shows sessions for IWF; adding detail to the very end of the command expands the displayed information
by-callid—Display H.323 sessions for the call ID specified; adding iwf to the end of the command shows sessions for the IWF; adding detail to the end of the command expands the displayed information

Clearing Sessions

You can clear sessions from the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller with the clear-sess command. You can clear all sessions, or you can:

Clear sessions for a specific session agent (by-agent)
Clear sessions for a specific call by using the call identifier (by-callid)
Clear sessions for a specific IP address (by-ip, where you enter the IP address in quotation marks () )
Clear sessions for a specific user by using the called or calling number (by-user)
