Change frequency of SIP options ping on mediation servers

Question
-
Hi there,
We just tested to drop the gateway down on the PSTN network and noticed it took about 60s for Mediation server to notify: "something is missing...". And then it move the full load on the other gateway.
How much I do have control for this behavior? Can I drop the time into 15 s perhaps? For end users it is better that if the call is dropped he get the retry through the system instead of trying multiple times.

Hi,Petri,
Lync Mediation Server does send a SIP Options message to the PSTN Gateway,if it fails after 5 attempts then the PSTN gateway will be marked as down,and it will reroute to the second one.
You can look through the old thread below,it has a deep discussion about this "hardcode" configuration

There is no way to control this behavior. The key here is 5 consecutive failures - only then Mediation will mark the gateway as "temporary down".

Hmm... strange. Somehow I feel this is something what companies might want to control.

Sharon,
Thank you again for clarifying this. I just hope that Lync's team even sometimes listen us.... this delay is pretty long time :(
