VoIP Solution Engineering Overview
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Purpose
This topic provides an overview of engineering at the solution level. Use the
information in this chapter as guidelines of how to estimate network capacity and use
the estimates as input to configure a solution.
After the solution is configured, use the information at the network element level to
prepare for an installation of the configuration, analyze system performance, or add
additional network elements to optimize the solution.
Discrete Data Acquisition
This section provides examples of some discrete data points and estimates that can be
viewed as inputs to the VoIP application.
The following list shows some of the types of data that can be collected and monitored
to help calculate an estimate of traffic and usage within the network:
Use the gathered network data as inputs to the VoIP application to calculate or estimate
the amount of traffic generated within the network. These estimates along with the
individual capacity requirements of each network element can be used to determine
how many of each element will be needed for the Lucent VoIP Solution.

The following are some examples of calculations that can be made to estimate network
traffic and capacity. This is for data collected at the solution-level. Any calculations
needed to determine capacity for a network element will be included in the vendor
document for that element and referenced in this manual.
The following are example calculations for a VoIP application:
The following diagram illustrates using the calculated network capacity in addition to
network element capacity requirements in order to configure and optimize the solution:

used to analyze solution capacity needs after the network elements have been installed
and in use in the network. Refer to the capacity information provided in this manual
for each network element.
Performance Monitoring and Optimization
After the solution is configured based on the calculations of the network and individual
elements, monitor and review the network element performance and capacity. This will
validate the quantity selected of each element. Network elements may need to be added
to optimize the estimated volume. In addition, reengineering will be required as the
number of subscribers and call sessions increases. Refer to the performance monitoring
information in this manual for each network element in the solution.
Site Preparation
After configuring the solution, prepare the installation site. Refer to the network
element site preparation and installation planning guidelines in this manual for each
network element that needs to be installed or added.
System Description
For descriptions of each network element, refer to the corresponding chapter in this
manual.
