Hi,



Curious why didn’t you try AQuA http://sevana.biz/products/aqua/ to score
the quality? Using voice files for tests has more representation to my
opinion.

 That's a fascinating concept!

 Can you share any more about how you appraised the data and determined
 your results?

 ie once you had the recordings on the second host what did you do do
 computationally score them? Do you look at the decoded (1khz?) waveform or
 do you appraise in another way?

 Here's what's wrong with this snippet:

 1) I don't know why I chmod the 'template.' No idea whatsoever. Alcohol
 may have been involved.

 2) I hate single character variable names. I love alcohol.

 3) cp is ill advised. For a testing script, it was easy. For a production
 application, use mv.

 In use, I would execute it specifying how many call files to create, like
 50. Then, take a look at top, iftop, and vmstat. Lather, rinse, repeat to
 get to your goal.


 We started the 500 calls and used milliwatt app on the first and record on
 the second host to check the quality. Alternatively just start 500+ calls
 and call yourself on top. So you can get a good idea how the quality is.

[asterisk-users] What's the best average duration for a SIP test call?

2015-03-27 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

What is your experience: if you plan to make a test SIP call to check voice
quality overa connection what would be the best call duration? The point is
that we should have a call long enough to be able to catch/hear impairments
that the connection may have.

This is partly a matter of curiosity, but I believe the roots of this
question may be quite important.

Thanks!
Valeri on behalf of Sevana

[image: AQuA 
Meter]http://blog.sevana.fi/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/screenshot.png

Hi,

We would like to offer you to learn about our new application that performs
scheduled voice test calls to a predefined
echo server and then uses our AQuA web service to evaluate the call quality.

We developed it because several VoIP service providers have inquired us for
a possibility to make test calls from local machines within
their customers’ network.

A typical example is when you provide VoIP communications to a company that
rents its premises (including an Internet connection) in a
business center. In this case it is quite important to monitor voice call
quality from different computers in the office space to the
service provider’s server.

This is a cross platform (Windows, Linux, MAC) Java application and uses
our latest developments in waveform analysis to evaluate voice call
quality: http://www.sevana.fi/aquameter.zip

The setup is simple: our application calls the echo server (apparently
provided by the VoIP service provider), plays a reference audio and records
the playback from the echo server and can thus provide overall (both ways)
call quality analysis.

We are very interested to receive your feedback and feature wishlist. The
application is free.

Sevana Oy/Oü

[asterisk-users] VoIP call quality metrics: who cares?

Hi,

How much do you care about call quality metrics to collect and analyze
them? What metrics are of interest for you (of course packet loss, jitter,
latency, but what else?). We have collected some for your review and would
be happy to expand them with those you are using in your Asterisk systems.

Re: [asterisk-users] server performance....

2011-03-04 Thread Sevana Oy

Hi,

We have worked out another approach for load testing:

- generate using sipp certain number of test calls and that go to PBX echo 
server playing and receiving back pre-defined audio

- generate +1 test call, which also plays and receives back an audio file

Then we test the audio we received from the +1 test call using AQuA (Audio 
Quality Analyzer) and obtain a MOS score (AQuA is doing perceptual audio 
quality assessment, it's not calculating MOS as in G.107, but more likely in 
P.862, although the algorithms are absolutely different).


In this way we can always know how many calls can the PBX under test handle 
before actual call quality goes down. The whole test suit is put together 
with other testing (loop back call testing, conference bridge testing) 
capabilities into what we call Asterisk VQM. If my previous message goes 
through moderation you will be able to see screenshots as well :)

Many people test their servers with call-setups and call tear-downs.
Using another tool like sipp you can send 100-1000s of call-setups and
then do call tear-downs.  You can also use transcoding loops to test
the load.  If you have 1 call that is sent to a context where it dials
exten+1 and continues the loop until a target number, you can then set
the codec for each dialed number.  I know that there are many methods
of testing and this is just a common one.

Re: [asterisk-users] voice quality measurement using dahdi_monitor

2011-02-04 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

The question is can you record the audio to evaluate its quality? There is 
intrusive approach when you have a reference file that you can test against the 
recorded audio, or non-intrusive approach, which allows you evaluate voice 
quality of any call recording (no reference needed). Both correspond to ITU-T 
standards: P.862 for intrusive and P.563 for non-intrusive, or to Sevana AQuA 
(for intrusive) and Sevana NIQA (for non-intrusive).

The difference is that all ITU-T recommendations related to voice quality 
measurement are quite expensive and involve annual royalties, but they are 
recognized standards. Sevana products are not recognized standards, but are 
used by many happy customers doing call quality assessment in VoIP, PSTN and 
mobile networks.

Welcome to our web site: http://www.sevana.fi for further information and 
customer references (many are Asterisk owners) or just contact us directly.

When VOIP flows comes/goes from/to this site, there are sound quality

Our MPLS provider does all check on his network equipments, everything
is fine too, no packets loss recorded on routers's interfaces ect ...
We have, on our side, check and replace all the VOIP equipments (spare

I am sure there are RTP packets losses somewhere, except RTP debug in

[asterisk-users] Asterisk Voice Quality Monitoring Framework

2010-11-23 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

Please don't consider this as an advertizing, but since we received feedback 
from the community that the only voice quality assessment solutions 
available are worth 50K, we have started to develop an Asterisk based voice 
quality monitoring framework. The core technology for perceptual voice 
quality evaluation is based on our products AQuA and NIQA that are quite 
widely used already among some Asterisk owners and even some well-recognized 
brands. However, the point of this message is to ask the community to assist 
with the demanded features. So far our customers reported that they would 
like Asterisk VQM Framework having:

- blast dialing to evaluate voice quality depending on the calls load sent
to the server under test
- reporting mechanism for obtained call statistics
- implement alerts on test call results (quality going below 3 and below 2)
- implement SaaS as demo and be ready to sell it as a service
- sniffer + NIQA + G.107 with alerting for non-intrusive voice quality 
testing
- Asterisk VQM to Asterisk VQM call simulation (to simulate how monitoring 
works when there are a couple of servers installed)
- detection of reasons for failed test calls

Our goal is to develop an affordable solution assisting VoIP community to 
monitor, evaluate, control and manage call quality in their networks; to 
have quantitative arguments towards PSTN gateway owners when voice quality 
drops down in PSTN network, to be able to route calls over the trunks with 
the best quality and in automated manner... And your support in presenting 
your wishes and ideas will help us a lot to achieve this. The first version 
of the framework is already available and even has customers already.

Thanks a lot in advance!
Best Regards,
Vallu

2010-11-17 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

Sorry for maybe not a very list related topic, but I have always been curious 
if there is information on how many Asterisk based PBXs are operating Worldwide?

Thanks and hope the community will not reject my curiosity! :)

Re: [asterisk-users] How many Asterisk PBX operating in the World?

2010-11-17 Thread Sevana Oy
Thanks! What I managed to learn from one article is:

Asterisk PBX has about 18% of the World market share of PBXs.

Asterisk claims 75% of the World market share for Open Source PBXs.

(source: http://www.asteriskexpert.co.uk/about-asterisk.php)

This must be quite a lot I believe, and I do agree amount of downloads does not 
show the picture I tend to see.

Thank you!

  There is probably not a reliable answer to this question since there are at 
least 4 major flavors of Asterisk out there (1.0/1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8) and open 
and commercial source.   It is reliably  10,000 and quite possibly over 
100,000 or even over 1 million.  The asterisk folks might be willing to tell 
you how many downloads have been done from www.asterisk.org, but that wouldn't 
tell you the real number.

[asterisk-users] Test numbers Worldwide

2010-10-27 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

We are searching for a pool of test numbers to call from Asterisk, record voice 
and test it with our non-intrusive voice quality testing software (NIQA). The 
problem is that we could find some test numbers, but our customer would like to 
have a global pool of test numbers, so that we can call them and test voice 
quality. Greatly appreciate any help!

Thank you!

[asterisk-users] Voice quality assessment in Asterisk

2010-10-08 Thread Sevana Oy
Hi,

How do you typically test voice quality in Asterisk? For example if you like to 
do load testing, or monitor voice quality and get notified if certain calls had 
bad quality for proactive maintenance?

Thank you!

One quick clarification please... With Fluke ACEs you measure MOS according 
G.107, E-model, right?

Thanks a lot to all who replied and will reply!

  The professional way is to do a series of test calls, play a reference

 to calculate a MOS score. This method is used by telco's to do quality
 checks.

 Take a look at the website mentioned in GPs post. He/they already know
 this, I guess it is a fishing expedition for competitors :)

 We don't do the test calls method, but use inline probes (Fluke ACEs)
 that analyze all traffic and give a MOS score to SIP calls and save
 network statistics per call (can be retrieved from the RTCP reports in
 asterisk). These probes and the analyzer software aren't bug free and
 perfect but give a good indication of all historic calls. Once a problem
 is spotted we move to test calls to trace the problem.
