Quality Monitoring and Statistics Gathering
The Data Border Element (DBE) deployment of the Integrated Session Border Controller (SBC) has a
main objective in supporting quality monitoring and statistics reporting. The DBE supports generation
of event messages detailing significant events that occur on each call. In addition, the DBE supports
generation of correct billing, call usage and detail records.
Some of the monitoring events that the DBE tracks and reports are as follows:
• Checking on occurrence of hung calls using the H.248 Network Quality Alert event.
• Reporting on congestion events and critical status changes, such as a resource shortage or
performance degradation, quality degradations of media streams, and service level agreement (SLA)
violations.
• Reporting media timeout while the association with the controller is down.
• Enabling H.248 event storage and reporting.
• Detecting media gateway controller (MGC) failure.

Border Controller Command Reference.
