Resolving Voice Quality and Roaming Problems
If using EAP-FAST, LEAP, or Auto (AKM) authentication, the access point
might be using filters to block TCP ports. The ACS server uses port 1645 for
authentication and 1646 for accounting and the RADIUS server uses port
1812 for authentication and 1813 for accounting.

Monitoring the Voice Quality of Calls
To measure the voice quality of calls that are sent and received within the network,
Cisco
Unified IP Phones use these statistical metrics that are based on
concealment events. The DSP plays concealment frames to mask frame loss in the
voice packet stream.
Concealment Ratio metrics—Show the ratio of concealment frames over total
speech frames. An interval conceal ratio is calculated every 3 seconds.
Concealed Second metrics—Show the number of seconds in which the DSP
plays concealment frames due to lost frames. A severely “concealed second”
is a second in which the DSP plays more than five percent concealment
frames.
MOS-LQK metrics—Use a numeric score to estimate the relative voice
listening quality. The Cisco
Unified IP Phone calculates the mean opinion
score (MOS) for listening quality (LQK) based audible concealment events
due to frame loss in the preceding 8 seconds, and includes perceptual
weighting factors such as codec type and frame size.
MOS LQK scores are produced by a Cisco proprietary algorithm, Cisco Voice
Transmission Quality (CVTQ) index. Depending on the MOS LQK version
number, these scores might be compliant with the International
Telecommunications Union (ITU) standard P.564. This standard defines
evaluation methods and performance accuracy targets that predict listening
quality scores based on observation of actual network impairment.
