Call Rate Limit Settings

Hello,

Can you please explain Maximum call burst settings for us? For example below will this allow only 5 calls per second incoming only or will this allow 5 + 5 total of 10 CPS? Our goal is to limit all termination traffic default to 5 CPS only.





Thank you,

Hello,

You will find the explanation in the below link:

if you put your mouse near the parameters, it will also display the description:

Hi,

I read the Wiki but still unclear on this setting. I was also told 0 means infinite so still not sure what the correct configuration is on these NAPs/trunks? If we want to limit to only allow 5 calls per second incoming do I set Maximum incoming calls per second to 5 and Maximum call burst to 0? Or do I also have to define Maximum call bust with value of 5 so it sets total limit to 5? There is also Maximum calls per second value too which I’m guessing also has to be defined as in this case 0 actually means infinite. Please let me know if setting below is correct as this will limits to 5 only without allowing any burst.




Thank you,

Hi,

Any update on the settings below? Please let me know if those setting are accurate as we are adding multiple NAPs at the moment and I want to ensure these are set properly.

Thanks.

Hello,

This limit is not 100% accurate per call base, but it will give pretty much the expected result upon a period of time.
E.g. if you set it to 5 maximum call/s, the 6th might not be dropped since it is dynamically calculating, but for a period of time, say 15 mins, the stats of the CPS shall be less than 5.

0 means no limit or not set.

So setting like this would mean for this particular NAP:
- Maximum CPS (Calls Per Second):5
- Maximum concurrent calls: 24

Thank you for the clarification.
