Configuring Session Failover

Use the following command to configure Session failover.

config 
   profile charging charging_profile_name 
      [ default | no ] session failover  
      exit 

NOTES:

  • profile charging charging_profile_name : Specify the charging profile name. charging_profile_name must be an alphanumeric string.

  • default session failover : Configures this command with default setting.

    Note
    Default setting depends on the failure-handling configuration.
  • no session failover : If the primary server isn’t reachable, failover isn’t triggered and the session is torn down. Failover action isn’t taken.

  • session failover : SMF retries the request to the secondary server if provisioned under the failure handling template.

Configuration Verification

Use the following command to verify if the Session failover handling profile is configured.


smf# show running-config profile charging chp
profile charging chp
  session failover
exit
