Configuring H.248 Segmentation Properties

You can configure default, minimum, and maximum values for properties defined in the H.248 segmentation package. The virtual BGF uses the default values unless the gateway controller overrides them with an H.248 command. You can configure maximum and minimum values to limit the range of values accepted from the gateway controller. In general, we recommend you use the values that are configured on the router by default.

The segmentation package is defined in annex E.14 of the Gateway control protocol v3, ITU T Recommendation H.248.1, September 2005. The properties in this package affect the limits used when long H.248 replies are segmented into several H.248 messages.

Step-by-Step Procedure

To configure default values for H.248 segmentation properties:

Access the configuration of the H.248 segmentation properties.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp ]
                     user@host#edit gateway bgf-1 h248-properties
                           segmentation

Set a default value for the number of milliseconds for the gateway controller to wait for outstanding message segments from the virtual BGF after it receives the SegmentationCompleteToken message.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]
                     user@host#set mg-segmentation-timer default
                           4000

Set a minimum value for the number of milliseconds for the gateway controller to wait for outstanding message segments from the virtual BGF after it receives the SegmentationCompleteToken message.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]
                     user@host#set mg-segmentation-timer minimum
                           2000

Set a maximum value for the number of milliseconds for the gateway controller to wait for outstanding message segments from the virtual BGF after it receives the SegmentationCompleteToken message.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]
                     user@host#set mg-segmentation-timer maximum
                           8000

Set a default value, in bytes, for the MG maximum PDU size property of the segmentation package. This value determines the maximum size of messages that the gateway controller sends to the BGF.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]

                           1472

Set a minimum value, in bytes, for the MG maximum PDU size property of the segmentation package. This value determines the maximum size of messages that the gateway controller sends to the BGF.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]
                     user@host#set mg-maximum-pdu-size minimum
                           736

Set a maximum value, in bytes, for the MG maximum PDU size property of the segmentation package. This value determines the maximum size of messages that the gateway controller sends to the BGF.


                  
                     [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1 h248-properties segmentation]

                           4000
