Item

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Start Time

 

Internal time stamp indicating when Cisco Unified Communications

 

 

 

 

Manager requested that the phone start transmitting packets.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stream Status

 

Indication of whether streaming is active or not.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Host Name

 

Unique, fixed name that is automatically assigned to the phone based

 

 

 

 

on its MAC address.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sender Packets

 

Total number of RTP data packets transmitted by the phone since

 

 

 

 

starting this connection. The value is 0 if the connection is set to

 

 

 

 

receive only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sender Octets

 

Total number of payload octets transmitted in RTP data packets by the

 

 

 

 

phone since starting this connection. The value is 0 if the connection

 

 

 

 

is set to receive only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sender Codec

 

Type of audio encoding used for the transmitted stream.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sender Reports Sent1

Number of times the RTCP Sender Reports have been sent.

 

 

Sender Report Time Sent1

Internal time stamp indicating when a RTCP Sender Report was sent.

 

 

Rcvr Lost Packets

Total number of RTP data packets that have been lost since starting

 

 

 

 

receiving data on this connection. Defined as the number of expected

 

 

 

 

packets less the number of packets actually received, where the

 

 

 

 

number of received packets includes any that are late or duplicate. The

 

 

 

 

value displays as 0 if the connection was set to send-only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Avg Jitter

 

Estimate of mean deviation of the RTP data packet inter-arrival time,

 

 

 

 

measured in milliseconds. The value displays as 0 if the connection

 

 

 

 

was set to send-only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rcvr Codec

 

Type of audio encoding used for the received stream.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rcvr Reports Sent1

Number of times the RTCP Receiver Reports have been sent.

 

 

Rcvr Report Time Sent1

Internal time stamp indicating when a RTCP Receiver Report was sent.

 

 

Rcvr Packets

 

Total number of RTP data packets received by the phone since starting

 

 

 

 

receiving data on this connection. Includes packets received from

 

 

 

 

different sources if this is a multicast call. The value displays as 0 if

 

 

 

 

the connection was set to send-only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rcvr Octets

 

Total number of payload octets received in RTP data packets by the

 

 

 

 

device since starting reception on the connection. Includes packets

 

 

 

 

received from different sources if this is a multicast call. The value

 

 

 

 

displays as 0 if the connection was set to send-only mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MOS LQK

 

Score that is an objective estimate of the mean opinion score (MOS)

 

 

 

 

for listening quality (LQK) that rates from 5 (excellent) to 1 (bad).

 

 

 

 

This score is based on audible concealment events due to frame loss in

 

 

 

 

the preceding 8-second interval of the voice stream. For more

 

 

 

 

information, see the “Monitoring the Voice Quality of Calls” section

 

 

 

 

on page 9-15.

 

 

 

 

Note The MOS LQK score can vary based on the type of codec that

 

 

 

 

the Cisco Unified IP Phone uses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Avg MOS LQK

 

Average MOS LQK score observed for the entire voice stream.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Min MOS LQK

 

Lowest MOS LQK score observed from start of the voice stream.
