Step Description
8.
By default, IPComp compression is enabled and there is no need to configure it. The
default configuration is not listed when the “show run” command is entered into the
system to list current running configuration.
9.
Repeat Steps 1 to 8 for the Expand Network Accelerator in the Branch Site. Ensure the
proper IP addresses are entered, as the IP addresses may be different from what is shown
above for the Main Site.
5. Interoperability Compliance Testing
The interoperability compliance testing focused on assessing the impact that the Expand Networks
Accelerator has on Avaya VoIP traffic traversing the PPP link connecting the Main and Branch sites
simulating a WAN. Compression and TCP acceleration were enabled for competing non-VoIP
traffic while bandwidth preservation was enabled for Avaya VoIP traffic on the Accelerators.
5.1. General Test Approach
The general test approach was to verify that the Avaya IP telephones could successfully place and
receive calls through the network infrastructure comprised of Avaya SG203 and SG208 Security
Gateway and Expand Networks Accelerators through a VPN tunnel while competing with simulated
non-VoIP low priority traffic and compression. Compression and Acceleration was implemented in
the Expand Networks Accelerator for all non-voice traffic to maximize throughput over the WAN
link.
The main objectives were to verify that:
• Calls between telephones in different sites are successfully completed and maintained with
good voice quality.
• Multiple telephones calls between sites can be completed as per the Desired Bandwidth
configured in the Accelerator.
• Non-VoIP traffic does not encroach upon the bandwidth reserved for voice applications.
• The solution supports G.711 and G.729 codecs.
• The solution supports DTMF.
• Layer-3 DiffServ information is preserved.
5.2. Test Results
The objectives in Section 5.1 were successfully verified during compliance testing. Multiple
telephone calls were successfully placed and received as per bandwidth policies defined by the
Expand Network Accelerators during varying levels of simulated competing traffic. Voice quality
was good throughout testing regardless of traffic flow.
