Appendix A CSG2 Command Reference

ip csg bma messages

ip csg bma messages

To specify the maximum number of general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol prime (GTP’) messages that the CSG2 can buffer for all Billing Mediation Agents (BMAs), use the ip csg bma messages command in global configuration mode. To restore the default setting, use the no form of this command.

ip csg bma messages number no ip csg bma messages

Syntax Description	number	Maximum number of GTP’ messages that can be buffered for all BMAs.
		The range is from 1 to 65535. The default is 10000.
Defaults	The CSG2 buffers up to 10000 GTP’ messages.
Command Modes	Global configuration
Command History	Release	Modification
	12.4(11)MD	This command was migrated from CSG1.

Changes from CSG1:

• The name of this command changed from records max to ip csg bma messages.

• The configuration mode for this command changed from CSG accounting to global configuration.

Usage Guidelines We recommend that you change the number of GTP’ messages that can be buffered only when directed to do so by Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers. In most environments, the default value is the most appropriate setting.

The CSG2 can buffer GTP’ messages in either the Cisco Persistent Storage Device (PSD) or in the Storage Area Network (SAN) connected to the Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI), as configured. (For more information, see the “Configuring PSD Support” section on page 7-1and the “Configuring iSCSI Support” section on page 8-1.)

If the BMA GTP’ message buffer exceeds 75% of the number specified on this command, the CSG2 stops reading GTP’ messages from the PSD or SAN. When the buffer drops below the 75% threshold, the CSG2 again begins reading from the PSD or SAN, placing the buffered GTP’ messages in the BMA queue. For example, using the default setting for this command of 10,000 messages, the CSG2 can read from the PSD or SAN as long as the buffer contains less than 7,500 GTP’ messages—75% of 10,000 messages.
