MWI (Message Waiting Indication), 6.1.11 Quality of Service (QoS)

Page 71 highlights

Chapter 6 SIP Pulse dialing sends a series of clicks to the local phone office in order to dial numbers.1 6.1.10 MWI (Message Waiting Indication) Enable Message Waiting Indication (MWI) enables your phone to give you a message-waiting (beeping) dial tone when you have one or more voice messages. Your VoIP service provider must have a messaging system that sends message-waiting-status SIP packets as defined in RFC 3842. 6.1.11 Quality of Service (QoS) Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay and the networking methods used to provide bandwidth for real-time multimedia applications. 6.1.11.1 Type Of Service (ToS) Network traffic can be classified by setting the ToS (Type Of Service) values at the data source (for example, at the P-2024) so a server can decide the best method of delivery (the route with the least cost, fastest speed and so on). 6.1.11.2 DiffServ DiffServ is a class of service (CoS) model that marks packets so that they receive specific perhop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route based on the application types and traffic flow. Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the level of service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices to handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to negotiate paths or remember state information for every flow. In addition, applications do not have to request a particular service or give advanced notice of where the traffic is going.2 6.1.11.3 DSCP and Per-Hop Behavior DiffServ defines a new DS (Differentiated Services) field to replace the Type of Service (TOS) field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels. The following figure illustrates the DS field. Figure 27 DiffServ: Differentiated Service Field DSCP (6-bit) Unused (2-bit) DSCP is backward compatible with the three precedence bits in the ToS octet so that nonDiffServ compliant, ToS-enabled network device will not conflict with the DSCP mapping. The DSCP value determines the forwarding behavior, the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each packet gets across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different priorities of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated according to the DSCP values and the configured policies. 1. The P-2024 supports DTMF at the time of writing. 2. The P-2024 does not support DiffServ at the time of writing. P-2024 User's Guide 71

Pulse dialing sends a series of clicks to the local phone office in order to dial numbers.

6.1.10
MWI (Message Waiting Indication)
Enable Message Waiting Indication (MWI) enables your phone to give you a message–waiting
(beeping) dial tone when you have one or more voice messages. Your VoIP service provider
must have a messaging system that sends message-waiting-status SIP packets as defined in
RFC 3842.
6.1.11
Quality of Service (QoS)
Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay
and the networking methods used to provide bandwidth for real-time multimedia applications.
6.1.11.1
Type Of Service (ToS)
Network traffic can be classified by setting the ToS (Type Of Service) values at the data source
(for example, at the P-2024) so a server can decide the best method of delivery (the route with
the least cost, fastest speed and so on).
6.1.11.2
DiffServ
DiffServ is a class of service (CoS) model that marks packets so that they receive specific per-
hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route based on the application
types and traffic flow. Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the
level of service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices to
handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to negotiate paths
or remember state information for every flow. In addition, applications do not have to request
a particular service or give advanced notice of where the traffic is going.

6.1.11.3
DSCP and Per-Hop Behavior
DiffServ defines a new DS (Differentiated Services) field to replace the Type of Service (TOS)
field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which
can define up to 64 service levels. The following figure illustrates the DS field.
Figure 27
DiffServ: Differentiated Service Field
DSCP is backward compatible with the three precedence bits in the ToS octet so that non-
DiffServ compliant, ToS-enabled network device will not conflict with the DSCP mapping.
The DSCP value determines the forwarding behavior, the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each
packet gets across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule, different kinds of traffic
can be marked for different priorities of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated
according to the DSCP values and the configured policies.

The P-2024 supports DTMF at the time of writing.
