Setting subscription timeouts for a translation protocol

Setting a subscription timeout applies only to the presence capability. The subscription timeout cancels or re-subscribes a SIP for legacy Sametime® Gateway presence session.

About this task

By default, the subscription timeout is set on the translation protocol only. You can set the same property on a community, allowing fine-grained control on a community basis. If the property is defined for a community, the community value takes precedence over the translation protocol value.

Subscription timeout applies to the SIP for legacy Sametime Gateway protocol. The subscription timeout does not apply to VP, XMPP, or other protocols.

Expected state:
  • Single server: the Sametime Gateway Server is started.
  • Cluster: the deployment manager is started, and the node agent and Sametime Gateway Server are started on at least one node.

Procedure

  1. In the Integrated Solutions Console, click Sametime Gateway > Translation Protocols.
  2. Select a translation protocol from the list.

  6. Click OK, and then Save.
  7. Restart the Sametime Gateway Server. If you have a cluster of Sametime Gateway Servers, restart the cluster.
