ip csg iscsi drain packet
To define the number of packets to be drained from the Storage Area Network (SAN) connected to the
Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) per drain delay interval when the Billing Mediation
Agent (BMA) becomes active, use the ip csg iscsi drain packet command in global configuration mode.
To delete the drain packet, use the no form of this command.

Command History
Usage Guidelines The CSG2 can buffer GTP’ messages in the Storage Area Network (SAN) connected to the Internet
Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI), if so configured. (For more information, see the
“Configuring iSCSI Support” section on page 8-1.) By default, the CSG2 limits the rate at which GTP’
messages are read from the SAN to 167 packets/second (500 packets/3 seconds). However, you can use
the ip csg iscsi drain packet command to change that rate. For example, specifying that 600 packets are
to be drained per interval yields a rate of 200 packets/second (600 packets/3 seconds).
Examples The following example shows how to specify that 1000 packets are to be drained from the SAN per drain
delay interval:
ip csg iscsi drain packet 1000
Related Commands
number-of-packets Number of packets to be drained from the SAN per drain delay interval. The
range is from 1 to 64000. The default is 500.
