Configuring RTCP Generation

The procedure below provides the steps needed to configure RTCP generation on the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller.

Before proceeding, make sure you know whether your platform supports transcoding. As described in the section on RTCP generation, this can affect your configuration and operational results.
To have your Oracle Communications Session Border Controller generate RTCP traffic statistics reporting:
  1. In Superuser mode, use the following command sequence to access the rtcp-policy element.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
    ORACLE(configure)# media-manager
    ORACLE(media-manager)# rtcp-policy

    From this point, you can configure a new RTCP policy or select an existing policy for editing.

  2. name—Name your policy for use when applying it to a realm-config.
    ORACLE(rtcp-policy)# name report-allcalls
  3. rtcp-generate—Enter the desired setting to generate RTCP. The effect of these settings is dependent on the platform and the presence of specific hardware on that platform. See the section on Generating RTCP in the ACLI Configuration Guide for these details.
    • none—Disables this policy.
    • all-xcoded-calls—The system generates RTCP report information only for the transcoded calls that pass through the realm.
    • all-calls—The system generates RTCP report information for all calls that pass through the realm.
    ORACLE(rtcp-policy)# rtcp-generate all-calls
  4. Type done and exit to retain your configuration.
  5. Access the realm to which you want to apply this rtcp-policy.
    ORACLE(media-manager)# realm-config
    ORACLE(realm-config)# select
  6. Apply the rtcp-policy to your realm.
    ORACLE(realm-config)# rtcp-policy report-allcalls
  7. Type done and exit configuration mode. Save and activate your configuration.
