Session Count
tab of Session Status List to display values for
Session Count
,
Reg Count
, and
Re-Reg Count
.
Session Count
: This field displays how many times the BHM has granted
registration to the BHS. Typically, this is the sum of Reg Count and Re-Reg Count.
However, the result of internal calculation may display here as a value that
slightly differs from the sum.
Reg Count
: When a BHS makes a registration request, the BHM checks its local
database to see whether it considers the BHS to be already registered. If the BHM
concludes that the BHS is not currently in session, then the request increments
the value of this field.
