autoVoIP™ Consultancy Kit

Installed on a laptop PC it offers easy access to real time VoIP network management and enables the service engineer or consultant to perform on location detailed problem identifying.

autoVoIP™ Consultancy Kit automatically finds all SIP phones deployed. It gathers quality of service parameters, including delay, lost packets and jitter.

MOS scores and R values are automatically calculated.

The SIP server performance is also tracked continuously, checking response time and identifying error patterns.

The Trouble Shooting Grid presents a unique real time view of the phone network giving an instant handle and reality check on the system. autoVoIP™ Consultancy Kit correlates and filters phone information. A grid-style overview visualizes the information making it easy to understand. From a single point network managers can view phone status in real time, track errors, registration problems and view QoS SLAs making troubleshooting much more effective.One Click access to historical information enables users to identify if problems are persistent or intermittent.

autoVoIP™ Consultancy Kit, part of Codima Toolbox, is easy-to-use, cost efficient and highly visual.

autoVoIP™ Consultancy Kit can be deployed with add on modules Remote Management, Call Playback, autoVoIP™ Report Browser and add on tools autoVoIP™ Traffic Simulator and autoAsset™.

• Dashboard approach and One-Click Management™ makes the product easy to drive and highly useful
• A plain-text call analyzer (one click and it really is all there) with graded levels of event information to isolate call set-up issues
• autoVoIP™ Report Browser produces a wide range of useful VoIP reports in htm format. The reports are automatically created daily, weekly or monthly and can be customized to local languages and include company logos.
• Automatically generate Microsoft® Office Visio® VoIP topology views

• Significant reduction in the cost ongoing monitoring of VoIP on mixed data and voice IP networks
• Evaluates real time network impact using the Troubleshooting Grid, Response Code/Error Analysis, Phone Software Analysis and Registration Analysis.
• Provision of proactive maintenance capability
• Delivers a huge improvement in problem-identification times through automated root-cause analysis
• Security situations such as Ping attacks can be correlated with operational problems
• Ease of deployment, starts monitoring immediately. Minimal to zero configuration.
• Reduction in the cost of administration and training
• Shows VoIP topology in Visio views

• Independently monitors SIP Server performance and error report
• Troubleshooting Grid - used to provide a single point to view phone status in real time, track errors, registration problems and view QoS SLAs
• Response Code/Error Analysis - used to identify if error is serious or if it can be safely ignored
• Phone Software Analysis - used to identify if a specific range of phones are affected by errors, also shows what software is installed on phones and Gateways
• Registration Analysis - used to identify why Registrations are failing and to establish if the failures are persistent or intermittent
• Automated Correlation Engine (ACE) - used to pin point the route cause of problems
• Consolidation of a diverse set of functions that integrate the capabilities of network management and analyzer products as well as dedicated voice application ones
• Tracks call quality and calculates MoS and ‘R’ values
• Analyzes the frame flow - separating the dialogs, breaking them down into Media, Signalling and Reporting components
• Analyzes the RTP payload frames - highlighting for example queuing delays on Switches/Routers or patterns associated with dropped frames
• Visio view focusing on SIP Devices (e.g., SIP Phones and SIP Servers) and Network Infrastructure Device (e.g., Switches, Routers, Wireless Access Points)

• RTP, RTCP and SIP on monitored phones
• Windows XP, Server 2003 or Windows Vista with 2GHz CPU (minimum)
• 1Gb RAM (minimum)
• Monitor resolution: 1280 x 1024 (recommended), 1240 x 768 (minimum)

• Enabling larger organizations to manage VoIP networks at local offices
• Adds the ability to view Remote Probes
• Remote access is secure and uses very little bandwidth
• Gives full local interactivity - remotely
• Additional requirement - a PC for use as a Probe, running Windows XP or Server 2003 with 2GHz CPU (minimum)

• Adding Call playback makes it possible to listen to phone calls for quality measurement purposes, by replaying the voice payload part of pre-captured frame files though a media player
• Note that recording of phone conversations must be permitted according to law for Call Playback to be installed

• Produces a wide range of useful VoIP reports in htm format monthly providing a long term view of network trends.
• The reports are automatically created daily, weekly and monthly
• Customization to local languages available
• Company logos can be included

• Adds pre- and post deployment traffic simulation measuring Quality of Service at different points on the network by simulating synthetic phone traffic
• Stress tests the Quality of Service experience for each point on the network when a traffic simulation is performed by providing extra controlled loading of VoIP and non VoIP traffic
• A true simulator using real RTP frames, sent at standard frame rates over UDP with RTP ports. That ensures the QoS engineering in the network will treat the stream the same as normal VoIP Traffic - in contrast to an ICMP Pinger.

• Adds Discovery and Reporting for software and cevices in any infrastructure
