Network Analysis
A "compressed header" is usually used for RTP/UDP/IP Header compression. In addition every
5 seconds a full header is sent (total = 46 octets).
The rule of thumb for calculating the bandwidth requirement for n parallel VoIP connections with
G.711 (one frame per RTP packet) is:
Bandwidth LAN = n × (180 voice payload + 0.4 RTPC)
Bandwidth WAN = n × (82 voice payload + 0.4 RTPC)
The approximate values for voice payload changes for other codecs or packet values. In addi-
tion, the bandwidth for Attendant P, call charge information, and other applications must also
be taken into account.
Bandwidth requirement for CAR-Alive/Node Survey
There are two different methods for performing CAR-Alive/node survey: either a TCP-based
mechanism or an ICMP ping (configurable with Manage I or WBM).
