Cisco Media Assure Configuration

[aalejo]

Dear Community:

Some oscure release notes are mentioning endpoint support to "Cisco Media Assure".  As a requirement  SDP Transparency Profile needs to be configure on CUCM but not a lot of explaining about why SDP transparency needs to be configure or how it works.

Any Documents?

Thanks

Ah, Marketing. The code name for this was MARI and it allows a call to withstand a stunning amount of packet loss before the user notices degradation.

At least for the moment, this is a proprietary feature in the endpoint and CUCM’s B2BUA doesn’t understand what to do with that SDP capability advertisement. By default CUCM discards what it doesn’t understand, but that would prevent the endpoints in a call from realizing each other support MARI and taking advantage of it.

Hey Jonathan

I was trying to get into the proprietary thing. :).

Do you know what device supported it (apart from jabber and telepresence units)?

Thank you!.
