ShoreTel Voice Switches Using a Telnet Session to Set IP Address and Boot Parameters

ShoreTel 14 Maintenance Guide 69

SwitchDebug - “debug_options timeout_icmp_redirect n.”

2. Set the value of n to the desired time period. Note that this must be an integral value and the

number represents minutes, not seconds. The value of n can be set to zero (0) to disable the auto

deletion of ICMP redirect messages.

When this key is defined in the main server, the switches automatically delete all of their routing

table entries after the specified period of time. Note that sampling occurs once per minute, so

routes do not disappear exactly 360 seconds later if n is set to 6.

3. Reboot the ShoreTel Voice Switch for these changes to take effect.
