Configure the address and connection settings of the Routing server, referred to as a Remote

Web Service and HTTP remote host (see

configure the 'Type' parameter of the Remote Web Service to Routing, as shown in the

following example:

In the IP-to-IP Routing table, configure the 'Destination Type' parameter of the routing rule to

Routing Server (see

Configuring QoS-Based Routing by Routing Server

You can configure the device to allow the routing server to route calls based on QoS metrics (media

and signaling). The device collects QoS metrics per IP Group that you have configured to operate

with the routing server ('Used by Routing Server' parameter configured to Used in the IP Groups

table). The metrics include the following:

Signaling: ASR, NER, and ACD

Media: Packet loss (Rx/Tx), packet delay (local/remote), jitter (local/remote), MOS

(local/remote), audio bandwidth (Rx/Tx), video bandwidth (Rx/Tx), and total bandwidth (Rx/Tx)

The device collects QoS metrics for both incoming call traffic and outgoing traffic from the remote

endpoint. It sends the QoS reports to the routing server, where each report can contain the status of

up to 100 IP Groups. If more than 100 IP Groups exist, the device sends multiple QoS reports

(sequentially) to the routing server. The device sends the reports every user-defined period. The

routing logic of where to route calls based on QoS ("good", "fair", and "bad") is configured on the

routing server.

For media metrics calculations, the device's License Key must include voice quality

monitoring and RTCP XR.

To configure the device for QoS-based routing by routing server:

Open the Web Service Settings page (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Web Services folder >

Web Service Settings), and then do the following:

From the 'Quality Status' [RoutingServerQualityStatus] drop-down list, select Enable to

enable QoS-based routing.

In the 'Quality Status Rate' field (RoutingServerQualityStatusRate), enter the rate (in sec)

at which the device sends QoS reports.
