[VoiceOps] VoIP Monitor - How do you roll ?

[Matt Ladewig]

Agreed, all sip signaling with RTP headers only for all calls. Only full RTP for specific troubleshooting and even then only by a very limited staff.

We capture SIP signaling and RTP headers to evaluate the call quality our customers and carriers.  Using the data we can proactively solve problems etc..
If we are actively troubleshooting an issue we may capture the full RTP to analyze the packets.  The need to capture the full packet is pretty rare.

Doesn't anyone else see a major privacy/compliance/legal issue with capturing all packets?  We only record if a customer explicitly allows us as part of a problem complaint.

Anyway, that's my answer...only do it when necessary.

Hey Everyone -

I know many of you are happy VoIP monitor customers, I am too !

Currently I have a "capture" node deployed in my three data centers pushing packets back to a centralized DB/GUI instance.  I hit some bottle necks around disk storage on the central instance and lost packets on the remote capture nodes.  I'm in the market for some new hardware to tidy this up a bit, curious - what does your deployment look like?  what type of hardware are you using?  do you split your capturing up (send/receive) or have any other hardware tips?

Thanks -

- Chris
