To improve the agent and customer experience in a VDI environment, increase the Redirect on No Answer (RONA) timer value in Avaya Experience Platform™ On-Prem using the following recommendations:

The network latency between the agent desktop and Media Processing Core of Avaya determines the agent audio experience. Agent audio experience is independent of the VDI server. Network latency impacts call signaling and call setup.
