    Mitel Server during the course of your experiment. DSCP Values The default DSCP values for Call Control and Audio are typically aligned with Spectralink recommendations. That said, if wireless analysis determines that packets are not “getting through” to the handset, it may be worth verifying that the MiVoice Business System is tagging Audio and SIP Control packets with appropriate DSCP values.
  • Page 46: Audio And Call Control Dscp

    DSCP value of 40. Though these differ, a value of 26 is not necessarily an issue and as such, Spectralink believes that the default values are acceptable. The Mitel MiVoice System also defaults to an audio DSCP value of 46 which matches the Spectralink recommendation.
