Performance Metrics

Note
  • Unless explicitly mentioned, the performance numbers below are collected without raising any alarms or errors. 
  • The limiting factors are packet loss and retransmissions, unless anything is specified (excluding transcode).
  • The core-wise usage is not mentioned, as in most cases the Default profile is used.
  • SRTP Calls are executed from PKTART.
  • TLS/SRTP is enabled at the Public side traffic. One TLS connection (Port) is used for all calls.
