Test Call Rules Configuration Examples

Below are test call configuration examples.

Outgoing Test Call: This example describes the configuration for testing outgoing calls:
Test Call Rules table:
Endpoint URI: "101"
Called URI: "201"
Route By: IP Group
IP Group: MyTest
Call Party: Caller
Test Mode: Once
Incoming Test Call: This example describes the configuration for testing incoming calls:
Test Call Rules table:
Endpoint URI: "201"
Route By: IP Group
IP Group: MyTest
Call Party: Called
Test Mode: Once
Single Test Call: This example describes the configuration of a simple outgoing test call scenario that includes a single test call between a simulated test endpoint on the device and a remote endpoint.

Test Call Rules table:
Endpoint URI: "101"
Called URI: "201"
Route By: Dest Address
Destination Address: "10.30.40.01"
SIP Interface: SIPInterface_0
Call Party: Caller
Test Mode: Once

Alternatively, if you want to route the test call using the Tel-to-IP Routing table for the Gateway application, configure the following:

Test Call Rules table:
Endpoint URI: 101@10.0.0.1
Route By: Tel-to-IP
SIP Interface: SIPInterface_0
Called URI: 201@10.30.40.1
Call Party: Caller
Tel-to-IP Routing table:
Destination Phone Prefix: 201 (i.e., the Called URI user-part)
Source Phone Prefix: 101 (i.e., the Endpoint URI user-part)
Destination IP Address: 10.30.40.1
Batch Test Calls: This example describes the configuration of a batch test call setup for scheduled and continuous call testing of multiple endpoints. The test call is done between two AudioCodes devices - Device A and Device B - with simulated test endpoints. This eliminates the need for phone users, who would otherwise need to answer and end calls many times for batch testing. The calls are initiated from Device A, where Device B serves as the remote answering endpoint.

Test Call Rules table at Device A:
Endpoint URI: "101"
Called URI: "201"
Route By: Dest Address
Destination Address: "10.13.4.12"
SIP Interface: SIPInterface_0
Call Party: Caller
Maximum Channels for Session: "3" (configures three endpoints - "101", "102" and "103)
Call Duration: "5" (seconds)
Calls per Sec: "1"
Test Mode: Continuous
Test Duration: "3" (minutes)
Schedule Interval: "180" (minutes)
Test Call Rules table at Device B:
Endpoint URI: "201"
Maximum Channels for Session: "3" (configures three endpoints - "201", "202" and "203)
Registration Test Call: This example describes the configuration for testing the registration and authentication (i.e., username and pas,sword) process of a simulated test endpoint on the device with an external proxy/registrar server. This is useful, for example, for verifying that endpoints located in the LAN can register with an external proxy and subsequently, communicate with one another.

This example assumes that you have configured your device for communication between LAN phone users such as IP Groups to represent the device (10.13.4.12) and the proxy server, and IP-to-IP routing rules to route calls between these IP Groups.

Test Call Rules table:
Endpoint URI: "101"
Called URI: "itsp"
Route By: Dest Address
Destination Address: "10.13.4.12" (this is the IP address of the device itself)
SIP Interface: SIPInterface_0
Auto Register: Enable
User Name: "testuser"
Password: "12345"
Call Party: Caller
