default

Resets the specified timer timeout to the system default value.

implicit-detach-timeout detach_dur

Sets the timer timeout duration (in seconds) after which subscriber will implicitly detached from the network if there is no activity. Generally this timer value is 240 seconds (4 minutes) more than the timeout value of the T3423 timer.

Configures the timer to hold MT SMS in MT queue. MT SMS will be present in the queue while the previous SMS is being processed. The timer expiry will return error to SMSC for an absent subscriber.

mtq_timer specifies the timeout in seconds, as an integer from 1 to 300. Default: 30 seconds

t3346-timeout t3346_dur

Sets the EMM backoff timer duration (in seconds). If an EMM request is rejected by MME because of congestion, it shall have EMM cause as congestion (#22) and shall include back-off timer (T3346) IE. The back-off timer shall be chosen randomly and shall be 10% below or above the configured T3346 timer value.

t3346_dur is an integer from 0 through 11160 (0-186 minutes). Default: 1500 seconds (25 minutes).

While storing this back-off timer expiry time, the MME shall adjust the mobile reachability timer and/or implicit detach timer. This is to make sure that the sum of the mobile reachability timer + implicit detach timer is greater than the back-off timer duration.

The MME will store the DB for at least the EMM back-off timer duration even if the attach is rejected because of congestion. The MME will not start any timer for EMM back-off. Instead, back-off timer expiry time will be stored in the DB as the DB is stored for at least back-off timer duration.

If an EMM call is rejected due to congestion control for EMM, the DB created during ULA will not be cleared and the purge timer will be started for a time period 10% greater than the back-off timer duration. This is done to make sure that DB is available during back-off timer duration to reject any requests during this period and also to avoid the HSS signaling again if the UE comes back immediately after the back-off timer duration.

The MME will not reject any requests related to handovers as part of this feature even if EMM back-off timer is running.

The MME will drop attach requests received during congestion while EMM back-off timer is running based on configuration in congestion-action-profile. For example, if configuration is enabled to reject new call only when low priority indication is set and the UE comes without low priority indication while back off timer is running, the MME will accept the new call attempt from the UE.

The MME will not reject/drop attach requests received even if EMM back-off timer is running if the congestion gets cleared.

The MME will forward SGS paging requests received from MSC for a UE attached in MME even if back-off timer is running.

t3412-extended-timeout t3412_ext_dur

Sets the extended periodic TAU timer duration (in seconds), enabling the Operator to configure longer values for the periodic TAU timer and Mobile Reachable timer. This helps the MME to reduce network load from periodic TAU signaling and to increase the time until the UE detects a potential need for changing the RAT or PLMN.

t3412_ext_dur is an integer from 0 through 1116000 (0-186 minutes). Default: 3600 seconds (60 minutes).

The UE must include the "MS network feature support" IE in the Attach Request/TAU Request. This IE indicates to the MME that the UE supports the extended periodic timer T3412, in which case the MME sends the extended-3412 IE in the Attach/TAU response. The MME will not forward the extended-T3412 timer value to any UE which has not indicated that it supports this extended-t3412 timer.

The MME supports storing the Subscribed-Periodic-RAU-TAU-Timer value if received as part of subscription data, and deleting this stored value if the corresponding withdrawal flag is received in the DSR command.

For homers, the MME will send the extended-3412 IE value as received in Subscribed-Periodic-RAU-TAU-Timer IE in subscription data.

For roamers, the MME takes the presence of Subscribed-Periodic-RAU-TAU-Timer IE in subscription data as an indication and shall send the extended-3412 IE with the value from the local configuration.

The MME adjusts the configured mobile reachability timer value if the subscribed extended-3412 timer value received from HSS is greater than the sum of the mobile reachability timer + implicit detach timer such that the extended-3412 timer value becomes 10% less than the mobile reachability timer + implicit detach timer.

Refer to 3GPP TS 23.401 Section 4.3.17.3 (Version 10.4.0) and 29.272 for more details.

t3396-timeout t3396_dur

Sets the ESM backoff timer duration (in seconds). If an ESM request is rejected because of congestion, the reject will have ESM cause "Insufficient resources" and will include a back-off timer IE (T3396). This back-off timer is chosen randomly and will be 10% below or above the configured T3396 timer value.

t3396_dur is an integer from 0 through 11160 (0-186 minutes). Default: 1500 seconds (25 minutes).

The MME will not start any timer for SM back-off, nor store the SM back-off timer expiry time. If an SM request is received and if congestion exists, the request would be rejected based and a new random value will be sent as the ESM back-off timer value.

The MME will reject any subsequent requests from the UE targeting to the same APN based on the presence of congestion at that time and not based on the SM back-off time previously sent to the UE.

If the ESM cause value is #26 "insufficient resources" or #27 "missing or unknown APN", the MME will include a value for timer T3396 in the reject message. If the ESM cause value is #26 "insufficient resources" and the request message was sent by a UE accessing the network with access class 11 - 15 or if the request type in the PDN CONNECTIVITY REQUEST message was set to "emergency", the MME will not include a value for timer T3396.

weight weight

Specifies the weight (preference) assigned to the address P-GW for load balancing. weight is an integer from 1 through 100 where 1 is the least preferred and 100 is the most preferred. If no weight is specified, the P-GW address is assigned a default weight of 1.

If a weight is assigned to an address, the weights of the P-GW(s) (that are operational) are totaled, and then a weighted round-robin selection is used to distribute new primary PDP contexts among the P-GW(s) according to their weights. As with all weighted round-robin algorithms, the distribution does not look at the current distribution, but simply uses the weights to distribute new requests. For example, two P-GWs assigned weights of 70 and 30 would distribute 70% of calls to one, and 30% to the other. The sum of all weights do not need to total 100.
