The MAX_SHORT_REQ_TIME parameter specifies the number of times a Status Request is sent before and RTP connection is disconnected and starts path switch processing. If 0 is specified, a default value of 6 is used.
The RTP protocol uses a timer called the Short Request Timer. The value of the timer is calculated as part of the protocol, but MAX_SHORT_REQ_TIME specifies a maximum value in milliseconds, beyond which the timer cannot increase. In some situations, setting this maximum value can improve performance.
Setting a value of 0 means that the timer is not limited and can take any value calculated by the protocol. The minimum value is 500 milliseconds, with a default value of 8000 milliseconds. If the specified value is 1–499 milliseconds, a value of 500 milliseconds is used.
