Hi Allan,


I don't know if the media_timeout=300 behavior you saw is a bug or not, but I wanted to add my own observation of weirdness about hangup cause MEDIA_TIMEOUT...


I just noticed a conference end abruptly after one leg spoke for 5 minutes. The logs aren't clear why this happened, but it seems that <param name="rtp-timeout-sec" value="300"/> in our sip_profiles/internal.xml is the reason -- it seems that because the *other* leg of the conference remained silent, the RTP timeout was reached.


I couldn't find any confluence pages about MEDIA_TIMEOUT by googling.

For media timeout there are the following chan vars:media_timeout, media_hold_timeout, media_timeout, media_hold_timeout_video, media_hold_timeout_audio, media_timeout_audio .



They are in milliseconds, not seconds like rtp-timeout-sec . 


<param name="media_timeout" value="300000"/>

I recall that the rtp_* variable names were changed to media_* some time ago. I updated the wiki to reflect this.

Now the question is: what version of code exhibited this behavior?

If it was built before the change, then naturally the rtp_* series will be what it uses.

We're using FS 10.5 on Debian Stretch installed via packages.

<param name="rtp-timeout-sec" value="300"/> in our sip_profiles/internal.xml does effect calls. We have no media_timeout* config.

David,


The profile level option is deprecated, These variables can be set per session media_timeout plus media_timeout_audio, media_timeout_video, then you have media_hold_timeout plus media_hold_timeout_audio and media_hold_timeout_video

I wanted to replicate the behavior we had with <param name="rtp-timeout-sec" value="300"/> so that we'll hangup calls in which leg B of a conference has sent no media for 5 mins.


I edited our dialplan like this...


<action application="conference_set_auto_outcall"
 data="['conference_member_flags=endconf,jitterbuffer_msec=5p:100p,media_timeout=300000']sofia/gateway/...deleted..."/>



and restarted like this...


fs_cli -x 'fsctl shutdown elegant restart'



But after 8 mins in such a call there was no hangup.

Although I didn't see that adding...


  media_timeout=300000  



...to our conference settings have any effect after restarting FS10.5 this way...


  fs_cli -x 'fsctl shutdown elegant restart'  



...I do see it having an effect now. I suspect there's been a reboot since then. FYI

Are you trying to hang the call up?

Yes, we want to hangup if media_timeout expires on leg b of the conference. This seems to work but seemingly only after reboot, not the 'elegant' restart I tried initially.


Btw, still eager for any news on 'unified-plan' support.
