User's Manual 57. Viewing Performance Monitoring
Hysteresis
hysteresis
[PerformanceProfile_Hys
teresis]
Defines the amount of fluctuation (hysteresis) from the configured
threshold in order for the threshold to be considered as crossed.
Hysteresis is used to avoid false reports being sent by the device.
Hysteresis is used only when the severity level decreases (i.e., from Red
to Yellow, Yellow to Green, or Red to Green).
The valid value is 0 to 15 (in percentage). The default is 5.
For example, if you configure the 'Major Threshold' parameter to 70%
and the 'Hysteresis' parameter to 2%, the device considers a threshold
crossing from Red to Yellow only if the ASR crosses 72% (i.e., 70% +
2%).
Minimum Samples
minimum-samples
[PerformanceProfile_Mini
mumSample]
Defines the minimum number of call sessions (sample) that is required
for the device to calculate the performance monitoring metrics (per
window size). If the number of call sessions is less than the configured
value, no calculation is done.
The default is 10 calls.
Note: The calculation also depends on the configured sampling window
size (see 'Window Size' parameter). For example, if the parameter is
configured to 10 calls, but only 5 calls were processed during the
configured sampling window, no calculation is done.
Window Size
window-size
[PerformanceProfile_Win
dowSize]
Defines the time interval (in minutes) during which the device calculates
the performance monitoring metrics. For example, if the parameter is
configured to five minutes, the calculation is done for the last five
minutes.
The default is 5 minutes.
Note: The calculation depends on the configured minimum samples (see
'Minimum Samples' parameter). For example, if the parameter is
configured to five minutes, but the number of calls during the interval is
less than the configured minimum samples, no calculation is done.
57.5 Configuring PacketSmart Agent for Network
Monitoring
You can configure the device to send voice traffic data to BroadSoft’s BroadCloud™
PacketSmart™ solution for monitoring and assessing the network in which the device is
deployed. The support is offered by the PacketSmart management agent embedded in the
device. The PacketSmart embedded agent allows network operators and service providers
to remotely measure and manage network performance at the point of demarcation and
simplify the deployment of VoIP networks. By providing real-time monitoring of live traffic,
PacketSmart can identify any network issues as they arise that may impact VoIP quality,
enabling service providers to address issues prior to customer complaints.
