Multiple codec support?

mlinsemier

We are currently looking at purchasing VoIP Monitor to add to our existing Orion NPM monitoring solution; however are wondering when support for simultaneous monitoring using different codecs will be available.  In our environment, we use G.711 for calls over our MPLS WAN and G.729 for calls to our home users (where there is a Cisco 870 series router and a 79xx IP phone).Is this functionality coming in a future version?

Matt,

Thank you for your reply.  Yes, the ability to define a codec for a group of devices or for specific devices is a feature we are evaluating for 2008.  With VoIP Monitor v2, you will be able to leverage the manual call path configuration option to specify a codec at the call path level.  If a majority of your network is configured to use one codec and you only have a few devices using another codec, then you could leverage VoIP Monitor's auto-configure feature for the majority of your network and then manually configure the call paths for the devices to use the other codec for the remaining devices.  VoIP Monitor v2 is currently in the Release Candidate phase and will be releasing within the next month.  If you would like to evaluate VoIP Monitor v2 Release Candiate, then please send me an email and I will put you in contact with one of our Sales Representatives.
