#### To configure the SIP Service

1. In the Developer profile, expand the Configuration node to select the SIP Service node.
2. In the Cluster or the Enterprise profile, select the required configuration and then select the SIP Service node.
3. Click the SIP Service tab.
4. On the SIP Service page, you can set properties that apply to all of the service’s listeners.

   - Enable Access Logging. If selected, this enables access logging for all SIP service sub-elements that do not specify this property. If not selected, this option disables access logging for all SIP service sub-elements that do not specify this property.

   - In the Access Log Buffer Size field, specify the size (in bytes) of the access log buffer , or a value less than or equal to zero for unbuffered access logs. The default size is 4096 bytes.

   - In the Access Log Write Interval field, specify the number of seconds before the log will be written to the disk. The access log is written when the buffer is full or when the interval expires. If the value is less than or equal to zero, then the buffer is always written even if it is not full. This means that each time the server is accessed, the log message is stored directly to the file.

5. Specify additional properties, if required.

   The following table lists these properties.

   Property Name | Description | Default Value
   --- | --- | ---
   `connectionTimeout` | Specifies the number of milliseconds SIP listeners wait, after accepting a connection, for the request URI line to be presented. | 12000 (12 seconds)
   `maxKeepAliveRequests` | Specifies the maximum number of SIP requests that can be pipelined until the connection is closed by the server. | 1000
   `traceEnabled` | If set to true, enables the TRACE operation. Set this property to false to make the Application Server less susceptible to cross-site scripting attacks. | true

6. Click Save.
