You can use several screen changes to monitor Quality of Service (QoS) on an Avaya Server with a gateway configuration. The gateway can send data to a real-time control protocol (RTCP) server, which in turn monitors the network region’s performance. Screens include:
Using an RTCP MONITOR SERVER section on the IP-Options System Parameters screen you can enter a single default IP address, server port, and RTCP report period that can be used by all administered network regions. This means you do not have to re-enter the IP address each time you access the IP Network Region screen.
The IP Network Region screen also must be administered for QoS monitoring. For more information about QoS monitoring, see Administering Network Connectivity on Avaya Aura® Communication Manager. If the RTCP Enabled field is left at default (y), then be sure to set a valid IP address in the IP-Options System Parameters screen. For situations that require customization, this screen is administered on a per IP network regional basis. Items to customize include:
Enabling or disabling of RTCP monitoring
Modifications to the report flow rate
Changes to the server IP address and server port
The list ip-network-region qos, list ip-network-region monitor and list ip-network-region igar-dpt commands list quality of service and monitor server parameters from the IP Network Region screen as follows:
qos displays VoIP media and call control (and their 802.1p priority values), BBE DiffServ PHB values, RSVP profile and refresh rate.
monitor displays RTCP monitor server IP address, port number, report flowrate, codec set, and UDP port range parameters.
igar-dpt displays output for the regions which have administered either of the below fields.
Incoming LDN Extension
Maximum Number of Trunks to Use for IGAR
Dial Plan Transparency in Survivable Mode set to y
.
list ip-network-region igar-dpt command gives an overview of IGAR or DPT-related fields to developers and field support personnel.
