The “VoIP Does Not work” ProblemThe “VoIP Does Not work” Problem

Traffic After applying control

Priority and bandwidth guarantees ensure toll-quality VoIP performance

Lack of QoS results in poor VoIP performance

Traffic Before any control

Today’s Options Are LimitedToday’s Options Are Limited

The Existing Router Network– Good at “better, faster, cheaper” forwarding of packets – Packet-by-packet control (not application-aware)– Not designed for real-time traffic guarantees– Complex to configure

MPLS Backbone – Manages delay and jitter within the core– Last mile/access point (customer edge) must still be managed

Add More Bandwidth– Dual, separate links– Increase bandwidth

Case Study: TV Network Lowers Costs with High-Quality News Driven VoIP/Data Solution Case Study: TV Network Lowers Costs with High-Quality News Driven VoIP/Data Solution

Challenge:– Decrease long distance

phone bills caused by telephone infrastructure for news and sports events

– Moved from satellite based circuit-switched data network to an IP backbone eased data network complexity, but voice network was still “a nightmare”

– Converge Voice & Data networks to reduce costs, simplify tasks and enable quicker implementation

– Moved from satellite based circuit-switched data network to an IP backbone eased data network complexity, but voice network was still “a nightmare”

– Converge Voice & Data networks to reduce costs, simplify tasks and enable quicker implementation

Solution:– Traffic manager installed at

several events– Monitored and classified

traffic by application– Reported detailed profile for

each event– Helped qualify the overall

health of the network: Congestion levels, latency & overall utilization

– Built a typical profile for each type of event

– Generated policy templates to pre-load and deploy traffic manager

Case Study: TV Network Lowers Costs with High-Quality News Driven VoIP/Data SolutionCase Study: TV Network Lowers Costs with High-Quality News Driven VoIP/Data Solution

Results:– Reduced bandwidth required for events from several T1’s to a

single T1

• Up to 96 compressed VoIP calls on a single T1

– Improved response times for all Latency Sensitive Data traffic because of guaranteed bandwidth

• All Non-Business traffic is monitored AND capped

– Reduced by 10 fold the time for set-up/tear-down

– Extended converged data/voice implementation to ALL fixed sites, and added video onto the network

– Increased predictability of network

• Staff gained confidence in the ability to manage and control traffic at the session level, with great reliability and repeatability
