• Real-time protocol analysis• CDR generation• CDR correlation• Call trace• Statistics (counters)


REPORT GENERATOR – REPORT SELECTION


REPORT GENERATOR – FILTERING


REPORT GENERATOR


SIGNALING LINK UTILIZATION

Signaling Link Utilization

Each line is representing a signaling linkset between the specified point codes.


PROTOCOL ANALYZER – CALL TRACE


PROTOCOL ANALYZER – CPN REPORT


PROTOCOL ANALYZER – OPC/DPC REPORT


PROTOCOL ANALYZER – TCAP REPORT


PROTOCOL ANALYZER – KPI/KPQ REPORTING

Indicators based on the ITU-T E.422 recommendation.


CDR BUILDERS & FORMATS

- Date/time of Call Start- Date/time of Call Release- OPC- DPC- CIC- Cause- Called Party Number- Calling Party Number

- Call specific parameters - Customer specific parameters- Connection to relational data

- Signaling messages related to the call/transaction

STINGA Enhanced CDR:

- ISUP- TCAP

- MAP- CAP- INAP- IS-41

- SIP- SIP-T/SIP-I- H.323- GSM/CDMA A-interface- GPRS Gb-interface- ISDN BRI/PRI- Megaco/H.248- PNNI

STINGA CDR Builders:


CDR GENERATION


CDRs -> KPI/KQI REPORTING
