[VoiceOps] Capturing SIP signaling for troubleshooting

[Hiers, David]

Displaying packets and ladders is trivial; there are several metric tons of free projects that can display miles of captures for you to tediously crawl through.

What matters is speed, scale, efficiency, and a vast expert knowledgebase that can automatically find possible errors in signaling AND media.

How do you all rate your products' ability to understand the protocols and highlight exceptions?

We have our commercial product "NX-C6000" that does the thing.
It has a simple web query page where the query key can be modified, so you can choose which header field to query. It also has ability to display call ladder, message statistics, detect SIP anomaly messages that doesn't follow the RFC.
