[cisco-voip] Monitoring tool or best way to monitor

[Peter Slow]

It shoudl be possible to use an EEM script to have the gateways tell
YOU when they're getting full.
we could also set up some form of overflow / SIP trunk that you could
use for the calls to your conference provider so that those specific
outbound calls don't tie up your PSTN trunks.
Additionally, if you have on premise video bridges, you have on
premise audio bridges. we can spend some time looking at how you're
using them, and almost certainly lessen your PSTN trunk usage
significantly, without incurring additional hardware cost.

Wanna talk more?

Or you can use AXL Serviceability API to poll UCM and pull the values into your programming language of choice. From there you can aggregate your sites or enterprise as necessary. You could even use AXL to push in config changes automatically.

How we monitor the active calls depends on the person and the size of the location. Each of us has to watch at least two gateways and we don't cover every location, just the major ones since we've got offices everywhere.

We've tried using RTMT but there are just so many gateways we can't monitor them all very well using that tool. I wanted to know what was out there before we try and build something on our own.
