[asterisk-users] measuring network quality in the field
What open source tools are people using to quantitatively measure how well QoS/traffic shaping is performing out in the field, and what call quality people are experiencing in terms of jitter and packet loss? Cheers, spd

I find that many times it pays to work with the net admin, I find that many have a Cisco router with SDM GUI, usually with no traffic shaping, just a basic connectivity setup. 3Com Network Supervisor is free and pretty useful if you have a Winows machine to run it on and your devices are setup for SNMPv1.

SNMP is a potential way to get data from various hosts. But how do the hosts actually get the data? -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com +972-50-7952406 mailto:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com http://www.xorcom.com iax:guest at local.xorcom.com/tzafrir

I suggest trying google to find hundreds if not thousands of ways.... Thanks, Steve T
