[cisco-voip] IP Phone voip Network statistics

[Jason Burns]

Alternatively, Cisco Operations Manager and Cisco Service Monitor  work
together with 1040 probes (network sniffers for RTP) to compile real time
stats on active voice traffic as seen on the network.

This can be handy for certain phones and gateways that aren't kind enough
to return MOS scores. Combine it with statistics manager and you can make
graphs of it.
