Logging/monitor call-quality indicators
How do you monitor the health of your servers/calls? I come from a web-development background where you can track things like how long it takes to generate a page, run a sql query, how many php or sql errors you get, and so on, then go back through the logs to solve problems that hadn't been reported - it'd be nice to do similar for voip, especially as there are so many more variables beyond my control. I was wondering if there are any ways to go about logging things related to call-quality like audio-latency, jitter, packet-loss, sip-errors, etc. I know about sip-traces, and the FS log, but that's too granular - I first would need to know a certain type of problem is occurring before I can investigate individual calls related to it. The only thing I can find in the wiki is PBXMate - but there isn't any mention of it in the maililng-list. Is anyone using it? Any feedback? Cheers, Fraser
Hi Fraser, Personally I use voipmonitor. It will monitor your server looking at the raw packets to the server. All data like jitter etc is stored in a mysql database. It also outputs the rrd call information to a directory so that you can graph latency etc. http://sourceforge.net/projects/voipmonitor/ If you don't want to write something there is already a monitoring gui, but you will have to pay for it - http://www.voipmonitor.org/ Ash.
