BENEFITS |
| Management |
 |
| Policy Definition and Enforcement |
Define powerful, fine-grained control policies and apply them to SIP-based services on a per-session basis |
| Single Sign-on |
Integrates with installed provisioning and directory systems, using standards such as LDAP, to enable policy definition and enforcement on individual users or groups that share certain attributes (department, organizational level, functional role, etc) |
| Management Interfaces |
Eclipse management interfaces include a command line interface (CLI), a java-based graphical user interface (GUI), a web-based user interface and a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface |
| Web Services Interface |
Dynamically control SIP-based applications and services from business applications using standard web services protocols such as SOAP and WSDL. Makes SIP-based applications and services "programmable" from business applications. Enables enterprises and service providers to create profitable new real-time applications and services by tying their business and service applications together |
| Signaling and media control |
Precise, policy-based controls can restrict the types of SIP messages and SIP-associated media streams that cross the network edge. For example, some subscribers could be restricted to voice services while others would have access to video services as well |
| QoS control |
Helps minimize latency, jitter and packet loss for media sessions through application of layer-2 and/or layer-3 QoS marking and priority queuing policies to real-time signaling and/or media streams. |
| Session Detail Recording |
Enables organizations to track the usage of SIP-based services and applications for accounting, billing, engineering, capacity planning, forensic analysis and regulatory compliance. |
| Session Tracing |
Displays detailed session trace information in graphical or textual format. Eclipse enables administrators to view detailed session information for problem diagnosis and resolution. |
| QOS Detail Recording |
Enables organizations to monitor, record and track quality of service (QOS) performance for network engineering, capacity planning and troubleshooting purposes. |
| Event Logging and Alerting |
Creates log entries and/or management alerts in response to system-defined and administratively-defined events for attack detection, problem resolution, situational awareness and forensic analysis. | |
