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.
