[VoiceOps] Call reconciliation across multiple elements

[Hiers, David]

We've got an in-house sniffer solution; hard taps all over the place.  Couldn't live without it.

Only downside is that it can't tell you exactly which network side call was created for a particular access side call in a 3PCC model.  Sure, you can use a bit of logic to make a good guess, but you'll never really know.

Only way we found that is 100% is to build network probes that capture all SIP/RTP traffic. This lets us have a wire view independent source of CDRs that we can cross against broadworks, video conference, and other systems.

This system also provides us ladder view of call calls merging all internal and external call legs and provides call quality stats on every call leg.
