Signaling System 7 (SS7)
Configuring an SS7 signaling gateway
For example, the following string defines a 1004hz tone at 22748 amplitude for 1 second:
"1004, 0, 22748, 1000"
The following string defines a dual tone with frequency 697Hz and 1477Hz at 14567 
amplitude for 2 seconds:
"697, 1477, 14567, 2000" 
The following string defines a 2050, -3dBm0 tone played continuously until stopped by a 
second STN message:
"2050, 0, -3, 0" 
Reporting VoIP call statistics
A TAOS unit operating as a network access server (NAS) with a signaling gateway can report 
VoIP call statistics in the output of the NAS messaging interface. IPDC VoIP call statistics are 
reported once a call is cleared. The source that originates call clearing can be either the 
signaling gateway or the TAOS unit.
When the unit reports VoIP statistics
IPDC 0.12 statistics tags are reported when the signaling gateway or the TAOS unit clears calls 
under the following conditions: 
• When the access server initiates a call teardown using an RCR message.
• For packet-based calls when the access server acknowledges a call teardown using an 
ACR message
The TAOS unit reports the following VoIP statistics, as defined by IPDC 0.12:
• Number of Real-Time Protocol (RTP) audio packets sent and received by the TAOS unit.
• Number of RTP audio packets that failed to reach the TAOS unit as determined by missed 
sequence numbers.
• Number of audio bytes in the RTP payload sent by the TAOS unit.
• Number of audio bytes received in the RTP payload that failed to reach the TAOS unit. 
Because the number of bytes per packet is variable, this value can only be estimated, 
based upon an average packet size multiplied by the number of nonreceived packets. This 
value can also be estimated by the control server with the information supplied.
• Number of RTP audio packets received. 
• Number of audio bytes received in the RTP payload.
• Estimated interarrival jitter (in milliseconds) Interarrival jitter is an estimate of the 
statistical variance among the arrival times of RTP packets, which is equivalent to the 
difference in their relative transit times. Relative transit time is the difference between a 
packet’s RTP timestamp at the sender and the receiver’s clock at the time of arrival.
Duration
Duration of the tone in milliseconds. This value can range from 0 
to 2631. If the duration is 0, a tone will be played continuously 
until it is stopped by a second STN command.
