Anyone have any deep dark secrets on when and how best to use the
following features? I don't have much practical experience in this area
and no VIC's at the house. Basically, I am concerned with gotchya's
related to these features.
VAD
COMFORT-NOISE
MUSIC-THRESHOLD
I understand the following:
VAD: Configured on dial-peer only. On by default. When enabled it stops
the sending of packets during silence. VAD should be enabled on low BW
connections, but disabled for high BW links.
COMFORT-NOISE: Configured on voice ports only. On by default. When
enabled it is used to send "subtle" background noise during the silent
periods.
MUSIC-THRESHOLD: Configured on voice ports only. Not on by default???
Question: VAD and COMFORT-NOISE seem to contradict one another. Or is it
the fact that COMFORT-NOISE will send far LESS background noise compared
to having VAD disabled? COMFORT-NOISE is just sending enough background
noise to keep the listener on the other end happy in that they know
someone is still on the line even if they stop speaking.???
Thank You,
scott
