Hi,
I want to be able to extract QoS parameters such as jitter, delay and
packet loss from VoIP calls made using my SER(both peer to peer for
my public clients and also for clients where the voice will be routed
with mediaproxy). I would like to develop something as opposed to
purchasing a software package.
From searching the Internet the last few days I have
seen that the
following options seem to be available:
1) RTCP
RTCP stream will contain this information. The problem is that
sniffers cannot clearly distinguish RTCP packets from other UDP
packets unless something like an IP address or specific UDP port is
supplied. I had considered using TCPDUMP but then where do I position
this in the network when voice is going peer to peer between client
and I'm not sure how this can work to monitor all calls when I might
not be aware of the end user IP addresses.
2) SIP INFO extension
This also seem to be an option but most off the shelf phones don't
seem to support this and this would required modification of a SIP ua.
3) SNMP
I thought maybe SNMP might be an option but the SER snmp module no
longer exists...
Does anyone have any comments on the above? Are the statements that I
made correct or can anyone think of other ways to monitor the voice
QoS? I am trying to understand how commercial applications have
accomplished this.
Many thanks in advance for advice.
Aisling.

Hi Aisling,
The SNMP module is dead as a killed turtle :(
