Packet Service Profile - RTCP Options

RTCP is used to report network traffic congestion data. Various actions (for example call disconnect) may be taken when congestion threshold settings are exceeded. The options are:

• enable — Use RTCP for the call.
• disable (default)— Do not use RTCP for the call.

• disable (default) — RTCP is relayed between the end points for pass-through calls.
   
• enable — Enable flag (as well as RTCP flag) on one leg to terminate RTCP sessions on each leg for pass-through calls. If RTCP and RTCP termination is enabled on one leg of a pass-through call, RTCP is terminated and originated for that leg. If RTCP is enabled on both legs on the pass-through call, irrespective of Termination For Passthroug settings, RTCP is always relayed.

If this flag is enabled, SBC ignores the configured RR/RS values in the Packet Service Profile and send RR/RS = 0 in the offer/answer and disables RTCP when the call is active. When the call is HELD, and a RE-INVITE is sent, SBC uses the configured values in the Packet Service Profile for RTCP bandwidth and enables RTCP. When the call is RESUMED, SBC again disables RTCP by sending RR/RS=0 in the RE-INVITE.

The value of RR ranges from 100-4000 and the value of RS ranges from 100-3000.

If this flag is disabled, the older behavior of SBC is applicable.

options are:

• disabled (default)
• enabled

Enter a value between 0-32767 to specify the Packet Loss Threshold (number of lost packets/100,000) which will trigger a Packet Loss Action. This parameter is required if RTCP is enabled. When set to “0”, no packet loss inactivity detection is performed. The value ranges from 0 to 32767 and the default value is 0. The value ranges from 0 to 32767 and the default value is 0.

This setting can be used in conjunction with   Media Peer Inactivity. To set media peer inactivity timeout value, see Media Peer Inactivity parameter in Media Peer Inactivity page.

For an example configuration of this parameter, see Packet Service Profile (CLI) page.

Specifies the RTCP bandwidth allocated to active data senders. The value ranges from 100 to 4000 and the default value is 250.

Specifies the RTCP bandwidth allocated for receivers. The value ranges from 100 to 3000 and the default value is 250.

• none — Take no action.
• packetLossTrap — Generate trap.

• packetLossTrapAndDisconnect — Generate trap and disconnect.
  
  

  This parameter is visible only when RTCP is enabled.
