CCDA FAQ: Voice and Video Design

Q1. True or false: LLQ is recommended for VoIP networks.

Answer: True. Cisco recommends low-latency queuing for VoIP networks.

Q2. True or false: H.323 is an IETF standard, and SIP is an ITU standard for multimedia protocols.

Answer: False. H.323 is an ITU standard, and SIP is an IETF standard for multimedia.

Q3. True or false: An Erlang is a unit that describes the number of calls in an hour.

Answer: True. An Erlang is a telecommunications traffic unit of measurement representing the continuous use of one voice path for 1 hour.

Q4. What do you implement to stop packets from being transmitted when there is silence in a voice conversation?

Answer: VAD. Voice-activity detection suppresses packets when there is silence.

Q5. The variable delay of received VoIP packets is corrected with what kind of buffers?

Answer: Dejitter buffers are used at the receiving end to smooth out the variable delay of received packets.

Q6. True or false: Common Channel Signaling uses a separate channel for signaling.

Answer: True. With CCS, a separate channel (from the bearer channels) is used for signaling.

Q7. True or false: FXO ports are used for phones, and FXS ports connect to the PSTN.

Answer: False. You use FXS ports to connect to phones and FXO ports to connect to the PSTN.

Q8. True or false: SS7 provides mechanisms for exchanging control and routing messages in the PSTN.

Answer: True. SS7 implements call setup, routing, and control, ensuring that intermediate and far-end switches are available when a call is placed.

Q9. An organization uses what kind of system to gather and provide information for the customer before transferring her to an agent?

Answer: Interactive voice response (IVR) system. IVR systems connect incoming calls to an audio playback system that queues the calls, provides prerecorded announcements, prompts the caller for key options, provides the caller with information, and transfers the call to another switch extension or agent.

Q10. An organization uses what kind of system to route calls to agents based on the agent skill group or call statistics?

Answer: customer service departments, and other call centers.

Q11. In addition to codec selection, both _______ and _______ can be used to reduce the bandwidth of VoIP calls.

Answer: cRTP and VAD. Both cRTP and VAD reduce the amount of bandwidth used by VoIP calls. G.729 calls can be reduced from 26.4 kbps to 11.2 with cRTP and to 7.3 with cRTP and VAD.

Q12. Label each of the following delays as fixed or variable:
a. Processing
b. Dejitter buffer
c. Serialization
d. Queuing
e. Propagation

Answer: A, B, C, and E are fixed; D is variable. Fixed-delay components include processing, serialization, dejitter, and propagation delays. Variable-delay components include only queuing delays.

Q13. How can you reduce serialization delay?

Answer: You reduce the frame size with fragmentation or increase the link bandwidth. The formula is serialization delay = frame size/link bandwidth.

Q14.

Answer: PQ-WFQ and LLQ. Both of these queuing techniques use a strict-priority queue. LLQ also provides class-based differentiated services.

15. True or false: The maximum one-way delay in the G.114 recommendation for acceptable voice is 200 ms.

Answer: False. The G.114 recommendation specifies a 150-ms one-way maximum delay.

16. True or false: FRF.12 is an LFI standard used in networks with VoFR and VoIP over Frame Relay.

Figure: Client’s Current Frame Relay Network

Q47. Based on the current network diagram, which Cisco IPT deployment model should you recommend?

Answer: Multisite WAN with centralized call processing with a CM cluster at the main site and SRST routers at the remote sites.

Q48. What feature should you recommend to provide call processing in the event of a WAN failure?

Answer: SRST enables the remote routers to provide call-handling support for IP phones when they lose connectivity to the CallManagers because of a WAN failure.

Q49. Which queuing technique should you recommend?
