Configure the SIP container
Configure the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) container to adjust message response times or set a custom property.
Use the administrative console to configure SIP container settings. Complete the following steps to find and configure the SIP container settings.
Procedure
- Start WAS.
- From the administrative console...
Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server_name
.
- From Container Settings, expand SIP Container Settings, and click SIP Container. Select the container settings to change.
- From General Properties, you can configure session, message, and response time maximums. See Session Initiation Protocol container settings and SIP container custom properties.
- From Additional Properties, you can define custom properties, manage transport chains or inbound channel settings, or configure the session manager.
- After configuring the SIP container, click Apply to save the changes.
- Restart WAS.
Results
Changes to the SIP container settings take effect after you restart WAS. As the number of SIP containers grow in a deployment, the larger the heap settings need to be on the SIP proxy server. For example, a deployment of 20 containers requires a minimum heap size of 60 MB, so a -Xmo60m parameter should be added to the Generic JVM arguments field on the Java virtual machine panel of the admin console. However, a deployment of 70 containers requires a larger value such as 200 MB (-Xmo200m). See the information center topic Java virtual machine settings for more information about Generic JVM arguments.
