autoVoIP™ Traffic Simulator Features, Functions, & Benefits

The autoVoIP™ Traffic Simulator is a true simulator and uses real RTP packets, which allows you to obtain a more accurate representation of voice traffic on your network.

Key Features

• Uses 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. This is a more effective approach for check QoS than using an ICMP Pinger.
• With the Traffic Blaster tool, sends out competitive and non-competitive traffic to see what the QoS would be for a single user when different levels of VoIP and non VoIP traffic are present
• Automatically explores the limits of the network, using autoCheck Mode it shows the QoS degradation as traffic patterns are automatically explored
• autoVoIP™ Report Browser produces useful VoIP report in HTML format that are automatically created daily, weekly or monthly. These can be customized to include company logos and local languages

Key Traffic Simulation Functions

• The remote end reports back using RTCP, in the same way a phone would. This method allows autoVoIP™ Traffic Simulator (and if required a third party) to measure jitter and frame loss
• Access automated Correlation Engine via the History Chart to find root causes
• Access report facility via the History Chart
• Multiple simulators may be defined to check multiple paths, such as remote sites on an occasional or continuous basis
• Shows what the QoS would have been if different Codecs were used in the simulation
• Supports a number of Codecs, including:
• PCMu
• PCMa
• G723-8k
• G726-16
• G728
• G729 - 8k
• Build traffic simulators - view the results associated with running the simulators
• Simulators provide user control of:
  • Target address
  • Priority (DiffServ)
  • Simulated phone jitter buffer
  • Codec used in statistics calculation show the impact on QoS when the Codec is changed

Key Benefits to Your Organization

• Prevents unnecessary project delays
• Prevents future maintenance costs, keeping IT budgets on schedule
• Prevents customer or client dissatisfaction with the start up of the VoIP network
