The gui seems like a great tool in troubleshooting. Nobody uses the rtcp-stats in asterisk for quality monitoring?

Cheap dedicated server with a span port on the switch. We *never* run anything other than Asterisk on a production voice server. -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Monitoring voice-quality with sip/rtp/rtcp
After some customer complaints I find myself tcpdumping, gzipping and transferring large packagedumps over the network to be analyzed. While this manual process isn't a long-term solution, I'm evaluating different options. Aside from the manual thing I could see two variants: - Dump the traffic (on the server or another via switch port mirroring/monitoring) and analyze it with tshark - Analyze the traffic in asterisk How do you monitor call quality for you services? (Right now I use asterisk 1.4, but are in the process to migrate to 1.8 or 10.) I looking for some ideas to setup this so I can eliminate this manual and time-consuming process in the future. And know about the problems before the customer complains about the quality..
