Good Quality VoIP Protocols

by gsmyth

How can you make sure that your network is living up to the
requirements, both before and after deploying VoIP  services?
Given below are some very useful guidelines you can look up to
before deploying VoIP  in your network, or when you desire to
better the quality of your network after deployment.

Whether choosing a vendor partner or testing and deploying the
VoIP  network yourself, ensure your tools provide granular
diagnostics and reporting capabilities that enable you to
efficiently troubleshoot all possible VoIP  issues. Your tools
should be utilizable throughout the complete VoIP  deployment
lifecycle, for both assessment and troubleshooting, implying that
one tool can be employed to both identify the problem and correct
it.

Network quality parameters like delay, jitter and loss, which
influence the number of calls a network can handle, are linked
with network design issues that range from what kind of network
equipment you are using to whether your communications network is
accessible across the street or across the country. The best way
to estimate your VoIP  call capacity is by simulating VoIP  calls
on the network, which will assist you in determining how many
calls you can handle and still maintain good enough voice
quality.

Estimating how many calls your network can deal with is only the
beginning, especially if you get a surprisingly low mean opinion
score (MOS) reading when handling a small number of VoIP  calls.
For example, when a Canadian financial institution was deploying
VoIP , it realized that most of its locations were capable of
dealing with as many as 24 VoIP  calls--but one link was showing
signs of backtracking at just six calls. While this location had
the same 10-Mbps WAN link as the other locations, it was not
delivering10-Mbps throughput. Communicating with the WAN service
provider solved the problem.

When deploying a VoIP  network, enterprises also should abstain
from testing only the quality of the VoIP  application. Because
the various applications performing on an IP network affect each
other, VoIP  may negatively influence other applications that are
currently performing on the network. Efficient VoIP  testing
should examine the full range of services performing across the
enterprise.

Enterprise networks keep on changing all the time. Adding new
applications, widening the network to new locations or boosting
network usage can all potentially have a negative affect on voice
quality. Ongoing testing proactively analyzes the influence of
network changes.

Once you deploy VoIP   in your data network, it becomes the most
crucial application on your network. Turn off your e-mail server
for 30 minutes and most people will not even realize. However, in
the case of drop in process calls or being unable to provide dial
tone, you will find that the users will not stand these things at
all. Constructing your network prior to VoIP   deployment, and
monitoring it afterwards can help you a lot in ensuring IP
telephony efficiently handles advanced telephony and data
services across one network--instead of becoming a severe
headache for you.
