Step 6: RTP General Configuration

On this page you have the option to change the default settings for RTP tests run on the network. All RTP tests that are added automatically will use these settings. You can manually add further RTP tests with different settings when the Wizard settings are configured.

Codec

Defines the Codec of the RTP test calls. This will alter the rate and size of

 

packets being sent between Traffic Simulators in order to emulate the G.711

 

and G.729 codecs.

 

 

Diff Serv Code Point

Defines the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) of the IP Packets of RTP

 

test calls. Routers will treat packets differently depending on the DSCP value

 

set in outgoing packets. By default this value is 46 (Expedited Forwarding).

 

 

Voice Payload Size

Defines the Voice Payload size of the RTP packets of a test call (in

(ms)

milliseconds). Must be a multiple of 10.

 

 

Number of

Defines the number of RTP test calls to execute simultaneously for a single

Simultaneous Calls

test. The default value for this setting is 2. Measurements for each call can

 

only be taken in one direction. When two or more calls are configured, half of

 

them originate at the Controller and half at the test agent so data is collected

 

in both directions providing a more complete assessment of the network than

 

if a single call were run.

 

 

Test Duration

Defines the duration of each RTP test call (in seconds).

 

 

Automatically Create

Check this box to allow the Controller to automatically create new RTP test

RTP Tests

Calls from the Controller to the RTP Traffic Simulator as the simulators

 

register.

 

 

SNMP Polling

Check this box to allow the Controller to enable SNMP polling for RTP test

 

calls.

 

 

Discover Paths

Check this box to allow the Controller to use traceroute to discover the paths

 

between the Controller and the Traffic Simulators during RTP test calls.

 

 

Protocol

Select a traceroute protocol to be used to discover routers on the test path.

 

The default setting is UDP.
