Common and typical functions that affects the call quality and stability:
Firewall Functions | Router and Switch Functions | Other Devices |
SIP and H323 Protocol Awareness or Inspections (It is not permitted for Telepresence, but people still do it.) | QoS - A step 1 question for bandwidth issues. | Riverbed - Protocol and packet filtering and bandwidth management. |
ALG Fixup - If enabled this will adversely interfere with the VCS functionality. | Rate Queuing - A step 2 for both bandwidth and jitters/buffering issues | Packeteer - Packet shaping, load balancing and bandwidth management. |
Packet Inspection - TCP inspection drops calls, and UDP inspections induces jitters. | Load Balancing - A wildcard for jitters/buffering issues, particularly across multiple routes, i.e split routes and/or carrier-circuits. | Microsoft WebSense - Protocol filtering. |
