Server Administration

RTCP itself does not improve QoS, but provides information to help identify where problem areas might be.

You cannot change the telephone’s RSVP or RTCP parameters directly on the telephone or by TFTP or DHCP administration. The only way to change these parameters is on the H.323 telephones, and such a change requires appropriate switch administration. See your Avaya Media Server administration documentation for more detail. You cannot change these parameters on a SIP IP telephone.

Internal Audio Parameters

The AUDIOENV variable provides control of some internal audio parameters in the 4600 Series IP Telephones. Avaya does not recommend that customers set these values. In certain situations, particularly in noisy environments, Avaya Tier 4 engineers might recommend that you set the system parameter AUDIOENV.

AUDIOENV is an index into a table that impacts four internal variables:

Possible Values

 

 

 

AGC_Dyn_Range

AGC dynamic range.

Tx_Gain

Transmit gain.

Transmit gain has a default value of 0 for

 

 

normal transmit gain, 1 for +6dB of gain, and

 

 

2 for -6dB of gain.

 

 

 

AUDIOENV is calculated as:

AUDIOENV= (27 * AGC_Dyn_Range) + (9 * Exp_thresh_Hd) + (3 * Exp_thresh_Hs) + Tx_Gain, which results in a range of 0 to 107.

Set AUDIOENV 0 is the nominal setting (0,0,0,0)
