[SIPForum-discussion] 5 minute cut-off

Do you see an INVITE being sent from the Huawei to the failing SIP client within the existing call? To: header has a to-tag.
If so, what is the response from the client. If the client does not respond correctly the Huawei will likely bring down the call.

ptime has to do with media/RTP packetization time , in other words a ptime of 20 says that the media will be sent in 20 millisecond carrying  payload/voice packets of RTP or 50 packets per second.  This is not the cause of the you hang up problem.
 
The problem has to do with re-INVITES and how often they are sent by the varying end points.
An INVITE with a tag in the TO: field is a re-INVITE.

Hi.
 
Huawei softswitch sends BYE with reason: SESSION TIMER EXPIRES. Our Huawei Softswitch has Timer of 300s which is why calls for IOS and Android gets cut off at around 5 minutes.
 
My only concern is that 3 of the other SIP Clients do not experience a call cut-off at around 5 minutes while simulating the exact customer scenario.
 
Would you be familiar on the function of this 'a=ptime' attributes? Is the ptime value in seconds? Would appreciate an immediate reply please.
 
Thanks.

Tristan,
 
I admittedly do have have working experience with all these particular endpoints, so my suggestions are merely based on observations of the Invite messages.
 
The Invite's associated to the IOS and Android endpoints do not appear to have 'ptime' attributes, whereas the Invites associated to the other three endpoints do.  Issues with ptime attributes typically effect quality of service.
 
PTimer Attributes:
 a. Genband IP Phone - a=ptime: 20
 b. Grandstream IP Phone - a=ptime: 20
 c. IOS - Not Configured
 d. Android - Not Configured
 e. PC Client - a=ptime: 30
 
My other thought was whether or not this could be associated to a 'session refresh' issue, if the session is seen as inactive and requires refresh to remain established?
 
Thanks,
 
Steve.....

Hi guys.
 
Genband A2 is currently peered to Huawei Softswitch.
 
Genband A2 has the following terminals that register to it:
 a. Genband IP Phone
 b. Grandstream IP Phone
 c. IOS
 d. Android
 e. PC Client
 
Now, I try to call to Numbers routed at the Huawei Softswitch from the following terminals and experience:
a. Genband IP Phone calling Huawei - Call NOT cut-off
b. Grandstream IP Phone calling Huawei - Call NOT cut-off
c. IOS calling Huawei - Call cut-off at 5 minutes
d. Android calling Huawei - Call cut-off at 5 minutes
e. PC Client calling Huawei - Call NOT cut-off
 
May I request what has to be adjusted on the IOS and Android clients please? I've attached a summary of the SIP Invites being generated by terminals.
 
Thanks!
