Protocol | Enter the protocol type that you want the agent to use: Either TCP or UDP. For further information see Limitations - GTP' Transported Over TCP in GTP' Agent MZSH Commands, Events and Limitations. | ||
Port | Enter the port through which the agent should await incoming data packages. This port must be located on the host where the EC is running. Default value is 3386.
| ||
Accept any | This option is used for the dynamic discovery of new Charging Data Functions (CDF). You must use this option when there are multiple senders through different ports that are active on the same CDF and source IP address. A new sequence number handler will be created for each incoming source point (IP:port). When this option is selected, the GTP' agent will not send the following:
| ||
GSN Address | The IP addresses or hostnames of the GSN nodes that provide the data. | ||
Server Port | Enter the server port number for each node. The agent will detect GGSN source port changes via the Node Alive Request or Echo Request messages. If a change is detected, it is registered in the System Log. The agent's internal configuration is updated. |

Directory | Enter either the relative pathname to the home directory of the user account, or an absolute pathname of the target directory in the file system on the local host, where the intermediate data for the collection is stored. The intermediate data includes:
| ||||
Acknowledgement from APL | Check to enable acknowledgement from the APL module that follows the GTP' agent. This way the GTP' agent will expect a feedback route from the APL module, as well. No GTP packets will be acknowledged before all the data that is emitted into the workflow is routed back to the collector. Controlling acknowledgement from APL enables you to make sure that data is transmitted complete. Clear this check box if you want the agent to acknowledge incoming packets before any data is routed into the workflow. | ||||
No Private Extension | Check to remove the private extension from any of the agent's output messages. | ||||

Max Wait for a Response (sec) | The maximal period while the GTP' agent should expect a If both this value and the Max Number of Request Attempts value, are exceeded, a message appears on the System Log. For example: If Max Wait for a Response is 20 and Max Number of Request Attempts is 5, the warning message will be logged after 100 seconds. The value also indicates the maximal period during which the GTP' agent awaits a | ||
Max Number of Request Attempts | Enter the maximum number of attempts to perform in order to receive a | ||
Max Outstanding Numbers | Enter the maximal number of packages that you want kept in memory for sequence number checking. | ||
Max Drift Between Two Numbers | Enter the maximum numbers that can be skipped between two sequence numbers. | ||
Clear Checking | Check to avoid saving the last sequence number when the workflow has been stopped. Clear to have the agent save the sequence number of the last collected package when the workflow is stopped. This way, as soon as the workflow is restarted, a package with the subsequent number is expected and the workflow continues processing from the where it had stopped. | ||
Agent Handles Duplicates | Select this option to store duplicates in a persistent data directory that you specify on the Miscellaneous tab. The packet will remain in the directory until the agent receives a request to release or to cancel it. | ||
Route Duplicates to | Select this option to route duplicates to a link that you select from the drop-down list. | ||
Alternate Node | Enter the hostname or IP-address of a host that runs an alternate Charging Gateway device as a backup. If you enter an IP address, the GTP' agent will include it in the redirection request that it sends to the GSN.
