SmartRinger

SmartRinger is a full-featured H.323 traffic generator - the powerful software tool intended to perform various tests on IP telephony operator's network. It grants ability to estimate fault tolerance or loading capacity of network components by modelling a test traffic stream with predefined characteristics.

SmartRinger software features:

• Works both in originator or terminator (answer) mode.
• Can simulate traffic with given time (average duration and range of calls duration) and quantitative parameter (total calls, intensity). Can preform continuous stress-tests.
• Brings ability to simulate mode with RAS client usage, or without it (tests with H.323 GateKeeper or without it).
• Support of various H.323 signalling elements as options including an opportunity to enable H.323 FastStart procedure, H.245 tunneling e.t.c.).
• Special random mode for continuous stress-tests of VOIP operator's network.
• Various codecs usage modeling. DTMF indication transfer and RTCP statistics support.
• The most detailed diagnostic report including media streams statistics and detailed debug of signalling messages processing.
• An opportunity of simultaneous use of several test stations for modelling complex streams.
• An opportunity to start two and more SmartRinger installations on one computer, even working in different modes.

Application scope:

• Channel capacities checking for suitability to VoIP solutions.
• Equipment behavior diagnostics under heavy load, including overload mode simulation.
• Obtaining dumps / diagnostic reports for new H.323 equipment working in certain modes to test it compatibility / stack quality.
• Complex tests of VoIP operator or corporate subscriber networks or its separate components.
