Media Quality Scoring
Quality for media received by Ingate is measured and reported in the CDR ticket over RADIUS.
Internet
Reported in CDR via RADIUS
Two-way media
7
Media Quality Scoring
The following information are computed (separate for each direction)
packets sent bytes sent jitter number of missing packets maximum number of consecutive missing packets. (estimated MOS value will be available in June -09)
Key benefit: Real time reporting and monitoring of voice quality Enables preemptive actions to increase voice
quality Creates a record of all calls with quality information Makes it easier to determine where quality issues
occur
8
WAN SIParator in front of existing firewall
Key Benefits
The SIParator can enforce Traffic shaping on the WAN link to prioritize VoIP traffic over Data for optimal voice quality
Connected directly to the LAN or via the firewall DMZ.
No configuration changes to the existing firewall
All data traffic are routed untouched to the existing firewall
Same SIP functionality as for all other SIParator configurations

WAN SIParator QoS Features(requires the Ingate QoS module)
• Call Admission Control Reject new calls when all available bandwidth is used
• Modification of TOS (Type of Service) bits
• Traffic prioritization Reserve bandwidth available for VoIP Prioritization of data traffic based on Service and TOS value Works for both inbound and outbound traffic

WAN SIParator QoS Features
SIP and Media
Available for Data
Emergency calls

Configurable for each interface and direction
Dynamic, free bandwidth configured for SIP are used for Data when available
Separate category for emergency calls
11
Multiple Internet connections
Key Benefits
Allows usage of a dedicated IP connection for VoIP only
The dedicated VoIP connection can handle all or a subset of the SIP traffic.
Remote users can use the ordinary Data connection to access the IP-PBX system

Multiple Internet Connectionsexample: different VLANs
Converged network
VoIP/IMSData
Service Provider
Quality separated pipes from the same provider (e.g delivered on different VLAN)
IP-PBX
Both pipes can be uses for SIP allowing remote users to connect to the enterprise VoIP system via the Internet

Key Benefits
Enforce Ingate Remote SIP Connectivity for all remote phones regardless of the NAT they are behind
Solves issues with many “SIP capable” home and hotel routers with rudimentary SIP support
15
Multiple IP addresses for SIP signaling
LAN
IP PBX
Remote User VoIP Service Provider
Key Benefits
Ingate can use different IP addresses internally when communicating with the IP PBX.
Solves issues for some IP PBXes not accepting SIP Trunks and Remote Users from the same source IP (e.g. Asterisk, Nortel SCS and 3Com VCX)
One or two IP addresses are used on the external side of the Ingate
16
Configurable Display Name and P-Asserted-Identity on Accounts
Key Benefits
Allows configurable Display Name and P-Asserted-Identity per SIP Account used for SIP Trunking
Increase interoperability
17
Handling of INVITE without offer
Key Benefits
Allows combinations of IP-PBXes and ITSP to interact that otherwise wouldn’t.
IP-PBX Ingate ITSP1: | |<---INV:A,B---|2: |<----INV:B-----| |3: |-----200:B---->| |4: | |----200:B---->|5: |-----re-I:---->| |6: | |----re-I:B--->|7: | |<---200:B-----|8: |<----200:B-----| |9: |-----ACK:B---->| |10: | |----ACK------>|
The Ingate B2BUA handles INVITEs and re-INVITEs without SDP and adds SDP where SDP-less INVITEs are unsupported.
18
User Database and SIP Trunk accounts separated
Key Benefits
Enables usage for user authentication via RADIUS and SIP Trunking accounts concurrently.
More intuitive and user friendly.
19
Other improvements
• Proxy ARP (applicable for the Firewall only)
• Reduced number of port changes for media
• User Routing for those authenticated via RADIUS
• Additional configuration parameters for IPSec VPN
