Configuring H.323 and H.225 Timeout Values

To configure the idle time after which an H.225 signalling connection is closed, use the timeout h225
command. The default for H.225 timeout is one hour.

To configure the idle time after which an H.323 control connection is closed, use the timeout h323
command. The default is five minutes.

Verifying and Monitoring H.323 Inspection

This section describes how to display information about H.323 sessions. This section includes the
following topics:

Monitoring H.225 Sessions, page 44-9

Monitoring H.245 Sessions, page 44-10

Monitoring H.323 RAS Sessions, page 44-10

Monitoring H.225 Sessions

The show h225 command displays information for H.225 sessions established across the ASA. Along
with the debug h323 h225 event, debug h323 h245 event, and show local-host commands, this
command is used for troubleshooting H.323 inspection engine issues.

Before entering the show h225, show h245, or show h323-ras commands, we recommend that you
configure the pager command. If there are a lot of session records and the pager command is not
configured, it may take a while for the show command output to reach its end. If there is an abnormally
large number of connections, check that the sessions are timing out based on the default timeout values
or the values set by you. If they are not, then there is a problem that needs to be investigated.

The following is sample output from the show h225 command:

hostname# show h225

Total H.323 Calls: 1

1 Concurrent Call(s) for

Local: 10.130.56.3/1040 Foreign: 172.30.254.203/1720

1. CRV 9861

Local: 10.130.56.3/1040 Foreign: 172.30.254.203/1720

0 Concurrent Call(s) for

Local: 10.130.56.4/1050 Foreign: 172.30.254.205/1720

This output indicates that there is currently 1 active H.323 call going through the ASA between the local
endpoint 10.130.56.3 and foreign host 172.30.254.203, and for these particular endpoints, there is 1
concurrent call between them, with a CRV for that call of 9861.
