Up Timer:
Timer to define the interval the IMG will send the OPTIONS Keep Alive message to the gateway when the gateway is up and responsive.

Range of Values = 10-600 seconds.
Default value = 120 seconds.
Down Timer:
Timer to define the interval the IMG will send the OPTIONS Keep Alive message to the gateway when the gateway is down (non responsive). If the gateway responds within the timer specifications, and the number of responses indicated happens, the gateway will be marked as up and the routing of calls to the gateway will resume. The value can be changed by clicking in the field and entering the new value.
Range of Values = 1-120 seconds.
Default value = 30 seconds.
200 OK response only:
Disabled (Default)- When property value is set to disabled, the feature is disabled meaning any response will be considered as a valid response and the gateway will be tagged as reachable.

To enable the SIP Busy Out feature on a specific gateway the Options Keep Alive field in the External Gateway must be enabled first. See below.
