23. MVTS Pro Architecture components
MVTS Pro software consists of two functional sub-systems:
• Traffic Manager
• Traffic Switch
Traffic manager is a protocol agnostic Traffic switch handles VoIP calls under
core of the system and the focal point the control of Traffic Manager and
of the system’s intellect. It is generates call session data. It is
responsible for: responsible for:
- Routing - Protocol translation and normalization
- Statistics - Codec conversion
- Operation monitoring and - Registration of devices
operator alerting - NAT traversal
23

24. Traffic Switch:
Load Balancer/H.323 Gatekeeper/SIP Registrar
• Single entry point for interconnection with
peering partners and corporate networks
• Network topology concealment
• Centralized workload distribution for easy and
enhanced scalability
• SIP/H.323 Registration requests processing
• Call Agent to control ETSI/ITU ISUP
(SIGTRAN)*, MGCP protocols
• RAS registration for interconnection with
corporate networks
• Protocol normalization to ensure interworking
between protocol versions and dialects
• Seamless interoperability with multi-vendor
equipment
*National dialects are available on demand
24

25. Traffic Switch:
Signaling and Media Proxy
MVTS Pro allows carriers to choose a proxy mode for Signaling only proxy
a gateway, destination, or network segment
individually. MVTS Pro provides for both full proxy • Efficient use of the system's switching capability
and signaling proxy only operation. • Native support of SIP, H.323, SIP-T/I, ETSI/ITU
ISUP (SIGTRAN)*, MGCP signaling
• H.323/SIP/ ETSI/ITU ISUP(SIGTRAN)* conversion
• Protocol normalization to ensure interworking
between protocol versions and dialects
• Fax T.38 pass-through
• Active standby (active SIP calls are not lost even
in case of the node failure)
• Correct generation of disconnect reason codes
even in case of the proxy device failure
Signaling and Media proxy
• Topology concealment
• RTP-proxy can be disabled to increase the
system’s throughput capability
• Codec transcoding
*National dialects are available on demand
25

26. MVTS Pro:
System’s High Availability Management
Management module performs license distribution, keeps record of system performance and ensures its high
availability
Automated distribution of licenses
MVTS Pro allows for automated distribution of the workload to ensure
the most efficient use of the switching capacity. In case one of the
system element fails, the licenses of the failed component are
automatically distributed among the remaining healthy elements
(according to a predefined set of rules).
Advanced notification mechanism
The system operator is kept aware of all important issues that occur
in the system. User-defined event-handling rules allow the
configuration of actions that will be undertaken in response to alert
events.
Flexible redundancy schemes
MVTS Pro features a variety of redundancy schemes to enable full
reliability. The system’s key modules are subjected to multiple back-
up schemes to ensure business-critical dependability and fault-
tolerant operation. The implemented scheme depends on the carrier’s
needs.
26

27. Traffic Manager:
Functionality Overview
Traffic manager is the focal point of the MVTS Pro intellect that incorporates three types of functional
modules:
Routing module, Database and Web Server
• Flexible routing policy
• Endpoints registration
• Number translation
• Traffic dynamics analysis
• Real-time QoS control
• CDRs processing
• Export of accounting data to third-party billing
systems through RADIUS interface

replication
27

28. MVTS Pro as an Interconnect SBC
MVTS Pro integrates the functionality of a class 4 softswitch with the key
capabilities of a session border controller* for reliable and secure intercarrier
communications
Topology hiding

• CDRs retention ensured by multiple backup schemes
RADIUS API for integration with add-on billing
systems
• RADIUS based user authorization

30

31. Operation Analysis and Reporting
MVTS Pro provides elaborate analysis tools for real-time call dynamics and
QoS monitoring:
• Call statistics by call originators/dialpeers
• Call statistics by
destination/GW/terminating equipment
• SNMP-aided monitoring of modules
functioning
• Real-time monitoring of ASR, QoS, ACD,
disconnect codes etc.
• Data collection for debugging
• Active calls monitoring
(origination/termination GW, duration,
used codecs etc.)
• Traffic Switch runtime statistics (over 100
counters)
• CDR-based call analysis
• CDR in plain text format convenient for
analysis and preliminary debugging
• CDR filtering by any call parameter
31

32. Redundancy Schemes
• Redundancy of all key
modules
• Various redundancy
schemes in compliance
with the network
architecture and carrier’s
needs
• Individual, comprehensive
, multiple redundancy of
business-critical modules
• Software updates and
capacity increase without
interruption of service
