Webcast Alert: Testing for Real World VoIP Problem Scenarios

    BEVERLY, Mass., May 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Empirix invites you to join Chad
 Hart Wednesday, May 23rd at 11:00 AM EDT for a practical and informative
 discussion on Testing for Real World VoIP Problem Scenarios.
     VoIP networks are subject to a number of known issues that are just
 beginning to become relevant as VoIP reaches the mainstream. Some of the
 most common issues include:
     -- Mass calling events - when an atypically large number of users attempts
        to make calls within a specified time period, stressing the network
        beyond its planned utilization;
 
     -- Power outage restoration - a flood of registration messages occurs when
        power is restored after an outage;
 
     -- Peer network floods - peer networks can unintentionally overload other
        networks if interconnecting equipment is not configured properly; and
 
     -- Malicious attacks - hackers can mimic the above scenarios and cause a
        number of other nuisances and security breaches.
     Surprisingly, many Tier 1 carriers have already found themselves
 unprepared for these scenarios and as a result, they have experienced major
 outages and service degradation.
     Drawing off actual carrier experiences, this webinar will examines each of
 these VoIP issues in detail and provide guidelines on how to set up tests,
 simulate, and analyze each one in the lab so that they can be avoided in the
 field.
