DNI Processing of RINGBILL Access

No Subsystem(s) Entered
Description of Change:
This is a partially historical ECP to track efforts performed for processing the
DNI portion of RINGBILL. The initial processing of RINGBILL will be
performed on our legacy WC2/XKS systems (using Trireme for VoIP & VTC
traffic). Once we stand up SKIDROWE, the processing will transfer to that
solution so we will need to be cognizant of any and all requirements that should
be defined for the SKIDROWE team to enable our solution.
Because we are initially using our legacy systems there will be extra work
required to configure them and the network to be capable of higher than
normal throughput. There will also be work to determine what kind of filtering
is required so that we don't overwhelm our PINWALE partitions. Finally, it is
already apparent that further work will be required on the VoIP processing to
associate signaling with media cuts. Once that is complete we will be able to
look into filtering based on dialing patterns.
Reason for Change:
Mission Impact:
Additional Info:
Last CCB Entry:
We now have access to the RINGBILL DNI and rather than waiting until the
June/July timeframe to use the new solution for processing, we have
developed an interim solution for processing the high data rates on existing
architecture.
These efforts are an interim solution to process the RINGBILL signal months
earlier than we orginally planned. Resources will have to be prioritized against
other efforts.
