Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

1.1 Basic Concepts

Traffic statistics, also called traffic measurement, payload measurement, refers to


various measuring activities carried out on the telephone networks within and around
the switch, so as to provide stable data basis for the measurement, planning & design
and operation management of telephone networks. Traffic measurement covers more
than the measurement and statistics of the traffic. It covers also the measurement of
the system resources, signaling and interfaces, and the internal operations of the
switch.

The following are concepts frequently used during the traffic measurement:
z Entity: It is a specific parameter (for example, traffic, call attempt times, average
seizure duration) for which data must be collected during the traffic
measurement. It can be understood as a measurement parameter.
z Threshold: It is a preset standard for evaluating an entity, usually including two
values, the upper threshold and the lower threshold. If the entity value goes
beyond the upper or lower threshold value, abnormality may occur in the switch.
The upper and lower thresholds can be set as needed. If only the upper
threshold of an entity is concerned, the lower threshold can be set as 0. Likewise,
if only the lower threshold is concerned, the upper threshold can be set as 0.
Note that not all entities have the threshold attribute. Thresholds can only be set
for entities with the threshold attribute.
z Original entity: They are entities already defined in the switch, for example, call
attempt times and seizure traffic. Compare this concept with the user-defined
entity.
z Object: They are various physical or logical entities and the combination of them
to be measured (for example, trunk circuit group, public component, auxiliary
components and destination).
z Measure unit: It is a specific measurement category, for example, incoming
traffic, outgoing traffic and internal traffic. It can be fully described by the
elements such as entity, object, time and output arrangement. It gives answers
to questions such as what will be measured, when the measurement will begin,
how to measure it, when and where the measurement result will be output.
z Measure unit set: It is also called the measurement sub-set. It is a collection of
measure units with certain same attributes, for example, a measurement set
composed of the measurement of the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)
connection type, the measurement of the ISDN local traffic and the

1-1
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

measurement of the ISDN forwarding traffic. Generally, a traffic measurement


system can be described fully by several measure unit sets, and one category of
traffic tasks corresponds to one measure unit set.
z Restriction: It refers to the conditions of screening measurement objects in a
measure unit, for example, “The calls originated from which incoming terminals
should be measured” (“incoming terminals” for short), “The calls to which
outgoing terminals should be measured” (“outgoing terminals” for short). Only
the calls meeting all restrictions of a specific measure unit can be calculated into
the statistical result of this measure unit. Generally, each measure unit is under
1~5 restrictions. Different measure units vary in their restrictions.
z Object type: It is a specific way to describe the restrictions. Generally, each
restriction can have several optional object types. For example, in the restriction
“The calls from which incoming terminals should be measured”, the incoming
subscribers can be described as “incoming subscriber number” (DN set +
telephone number), or “incoming subscriber extension number” (module number
+ subscriber type + subscriber logical number), but only one of them can be
selected.
z Object value: It refers to the selected object type. For example, once “Incoming
subscriber number” is selected to describe the incoming subscriber, then
“incoming subscriber number” is the object value.
z Measurement type: It is a specific combination of the entity and object, for
example, trunk group traffic, number of outgoing calls.
z Measurement set: It is a collection of several measurement types, usually used
to indicate the total of measurement types that can be fulfilled by a traffic
measurement system.
z Output sending information: It specifies where the measurement result will be
sent.
z Output arranging information: It specifies when the measurement result will be
output.
z Traffic measurement report: It describes the result of the traffic measurement of
a specific measurement type, including measurement object, measurement
entity value, measurement period, start and end time of the measurement cycle,
providing basis for further measurement, planning, running and management of
the performances in the entire office and network.
z Task: It describes the operations of a specific traffic measurement. Such
descriptions cover multiple aspects, for example, measurement object (the calls
to be measured), measurement time, output entity and output time.
z Subtask: It refers to the tasks with different measurement objects but with the
same attributes. For example, the traffic measurement task to measure the traffic
of two analog subscribers contains two subtasks.
z Deactivate: It is one of the traffic measurement operations and can stop the
execution of an existing traffic measurement task, hence no more result will be

1-2
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

output. In this case, the task itself is not deleted and only the system resources
that it occupies are released.
z Activate: It is an inverse operation of deactivating, which resumes the execution
of a traffic measurement task, and the switch will continue to output the
measurement result.
The following is an example showing the application of these concepts, and briefly
describing the way to create a traffic measurement task. Suppose it is required to
measure the completing rate of the incoming toll calls to the local switch.
1) Create a traffic statistics task to measure the completing rate of the incoming toll
calls. This means to specify the “measure unit”. There are nearly 100 measure
units in the C&C08 Switch. These measure units are classified into nine measure
unit sets respectively for the convenience of finding and application. To locate a
measure unit, first find which measure unit set it belongs to. In this example,
select the measure unit of “Office Direction Incoming Office Traffic” in the
measure unit set of “Measurement of Bearer Traffic”.
Once the measure unit is created, the measurement object is thus specified. In this
example, the measurement object is “office direction”. Note that one traffic
measurement task must correspond to at least one measurement object. Otherwise,
the traffic measurement task makes no practical sense.
2) Specify the range of the measurement object. In this example, specify the
number of the office direction that is connected to the toll switch. The office
direction number selected here becomes a restriction, and measuring the
completing rate of toll calls of a specific office direction is a sub-task.
3) The traffic measurement in this example includes 27 parameters to be measured,
including Seizure Times, Terminal Call Attempt Times, Transfer Call, Attempt
Times, Call Connected Times and Answer Times. These measurement
parameters are entities. You can select desired entities to be output, thus
simplifying the traffic measurement report.
4) Finally, specify the time information and output arrangement information. Then
the creation of a traffic measurement task is completed. In a word, all kinds of
traffic measurement tasks can be easily created as long as you have grasped
such basic concepts as measure unit set, measure unit, measurement object,
entity and time.

Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

1.2 Functional Features

I. Task management function

The management of traffic measurement tasks includes creating/deleting a


measurement task (sub-task), adding/deleting the objects of a measurement task,
setting/deleting the threshold of a measurement task,
modifying/activating/deactivating a measurement task, querying the information and
status of a measurement task. The text below covers the switch-wide features.

The traffic measurement system of the C&C08 Switch supports a maximum of 150
tasks and 1 200 suc-tasks. Subtasks are allocated dynamically among the tasks.
Creating a new task will be impossible once there already are 1 200 subtasks. Only
when the created tasks are deleted and the resources are released can a new task be
created. Moreover, the system allows you to deactivate the task (sub-task) that is
being carried out. Once the task is deactivated, the occupied resources will be
released, and no more measurement result will be output. That is, the system enters a
sleep status. Only when the task in the sleep status is reactivated can it enter the
measurement status and go on to output the measurement result. Subtasks are
extremely efficient for such measurement of trunk groups. You can use a single task
to measure the traffic of all trunk groups, and output the measurement result in the
output report according to respective objects.

Once a task is created, you can add or delete its measurement object. This feature
makes it possible to add a new object or delete an existing object without deleting the
created task. For example, you can add or delete the measurement of one trunk
group when the original task has registered the measurement of 10 trunk groups.

Moreover, you can quickly create and flexibly select the traffic measurement tasks by
activating and deactivating the tasks. Normally the mostly used traffic measurement
tasks can be fulfilled at one time. You can deactivate the tasks not to be used, and
activate them again when needed, and just modify the attributes such as time before
putting them into traffic measurement.

II. Exception report

Exception reports refer to the measurement result reports that are output only when
the measurement value of the entity is beyond the upper/lower thresholds during the
measurement. The report prompts you of abnormal measurement values of some
entities, actually reflecting some potential abnormalities in the switch. You can
analyze the cause of the abnormal measurement value based on the report, and
eliminate such abnormalities accordingly.

1-4
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

III. Brief report

A brief report determines which entities can be output, and which cannot. It can delete
the unconcerned entities from the output report, making the report brief and concise.

IV. Sampling measurement

Some special measure units have the function of sampling measurement, all of which
belong to such measure unit sets as call records or traffic distribution. They are
characterized by a very large capacity of call measuring, and generally the
measurement effect can be shown through sampling measurement. Moreover,
sampling measurement is advantageous in saving the system resources and
improving the measurement efficiency. For example, “Destination Distribution Traffic”
measures the traffic of all destination codes in the office direction. This measurement
is fulfilled in a task-matching mode and consumes a lot of system resources. If many
tasks of this kind are registered and no sampling processing is performed, the switch
will probably be short of resources.

There are two kinds of sampling measurement, sampling ratio and sampling times.
The sampling ratio refers to measurements of a certain proportion of calls randomly
sampled in the whole measurement set. For example, 30% means sampling 3 from
10 calls, or 300 from 1 000 calls for measurement. The sampling times refers to the
measurements of a specific number of calls randomly sampled in the whole
measurement set, beyond this number, there will be no further sampling and the
measurement will end. For example, 1 000 times sampling means no further sampling
will be made after sampling 1 000 times of calls according to certain principles.

V. Measurement report incredible

This function marks in the result report whether the measurement result is accurate,
so as to remind you of the credibility of the measurement activity. The incredible
measurement result is caused by many factors, for example, the system time is
modified during the measurement, measurement cycle is modified, configuration data
is set, the counter is reset, or the result is received incompletely.

VI. Screening measurement to CID numbers

This feature allows setting restrictions, and measuring the Caller Identification Display
(CID) numbers which meet specific requirements. For example, measure the number
of incoming calls and traffic of CID numbers with the prefix "654" from a specific trunk
group to the local office.

1-5
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 1 Traffic Measurement Overview

VII. Outputting the measurement result in the call record mode

After the screening conditions are specified, the time and behavior of the calls
meeting the conditions in various call stages will be recorded, which is equivalent to
the function of connection tracing which can be automatically recorded and screened.

VIII. No loss of measurement tasks in case of switchover and reloading

This feature ensures the continuity of the measurement task without an interruption
caused by maintenance operations. This is essential to the traffic measurement tasks
with a long cycle. Note that if a switchover or reloading occurs in a specific cycle, the
measurement result in this period will be affected. For example, a traffic measurement
task (Task 1) with the cycle of one hour and a traffic measurement task (Task 2) with
the cycle of 24 hours are created in a certain switch. Suppose a specific module of this
switch is reset at 10:10, then the report of Task 1 at 10:00~11:00 is marked as “result
received incompletely” while the report of Task 2 on that very day is so marked too.

IX. Dynamical modification of a task

Dynamical modification of a task includes the modification of the measurement time,


the addition/deletion of the measurement object, and the modification of the threshold
set in the exception report. Once the task is modified, it can be run according to the
new requirements in two measurement cycles.

X. Display and storage of measurement results

The switch provides a special Traffic measurement window, where the output of the
traffic measurement results can be easily viewed. The switch also provides the
function of printing out the traffic tasks and traffic results. First save the detailed
information about the traffic measurement tasks and results in a text file, then print out
the text file. Or print the traffic measurement results directly through the report print
function.

XI. Self-defined entity

This feature allows you to define a new entity in addition to the original entity to meet
various measurement demands. You can define an entity in two ways. One is
recombining the original entity, and the other is creating a completely new entity. Both
ways are realized by designing a new entity calculation formula.

Chapter 2 Traffic Measurement Operations

2.1 Introduction

There are five types of traffic measurement operations:


z Creating a traffic statistics task
z Modifying a traffic statistics task
z Deleting a traffic statistics task
z Querying the information of a traffic statistics task
z Querying, saving and printing the results of traffic statistics
Among the above five items, creating traffic statistics tasks is the most crucial
operation, while other four items are set up on the basis of the existing traffic statistics
task. Each type of traffic measurement corresponds to multiple operation commands.
Therefore, traffic measurement commands are also available in five types, with each
type called a command subset. The operation of traffic measurement refers to the
process of carrying out a command in a command subset.

Type traffic measurement commands in two ways, that is, through command line
window and graphics window.
z Command line window
As shown in Figure 2-1, use the client command line window or the [MML Command]
(MML stands for Man Machine Language) input mode of the navigation tree.

As shown in Figure 2-2, use the [System] input mode of the navigation tree.

Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 2 Traffic Measurement Operations

Figure 2-2 Graphics window

The above two input modes get the same result in different ways. Through
comparison, the graphics window is clear and simple for understanding and viewing.
Therefore, we use this input mode to describe the operations of traffic statistics. As for
how to create, modify or query a traffic statistics task in the MML command line mode,
refer to the appendix.

2.2 Creating a Traffic Statistics Task

The steps for creating a traffic statistics task are as follows:


1) Select a traffic statistics type.
2) Choose a proper measure unit according to the measurement purpose.
3) Determine the range of a measure object according to the measurement
demand.
4) Select or set the entities to be output.
5) Set other parameters (such as time information, threshold, direction and time of
sending the output results).
In the following, take the measurement of the connection rate of incoming toll calls as
an example to describe the operation steps for creating a traffic statistics task.

2-3
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 2 Traffic Measurement Operations

Suppose to measure the connection rate of incoming toll calls from No. 1 office
direction. The entities to be output include the connected ratio, connected times,
connected traffics, answer ratio, answer times, answer traffics, seizure times, seizure
traffics and a self-defined entity----NOANS. The measurement begins on Sep. 25,
2001 and lasts 30 days, and traffic statistics is performed in three time segments,
9:00~11:00, 14:00~16:00 and 19:00~21:00 everyday from every Monday to Friday. A
traffic statistics report is output to the current workstation, traffic statistics port and
Network Management (NM) port at 22:00 once each day. For monitoring
abnormalities, upper and lower thresholds are set for the connected ratio and answer
ratio, which are respectively 65% and 90%, while the lower and upper thresholds of
the answer ratio are respectively 52% and 72%.

2.2.1 Selecting a Traffic Statistics Type

In Figure 2-2, right click on the right of the window and choose "Create Traffic Task" on
the pop-up menu. The [Select Traffic Statistics Task Type] window will appear, as
shown in Figure 2-3. Choose the option "Beared Object Task" because incoming toll
calls are of the incoming traffic, and for it, the corresponding measuring unit is "office
direction incoming office traffic" which is of the beared object task.

Figure 2-3 Selecting a traffic statistics type

2.2.2 Choosing a Measure Unit

After a traffic statistics type is determined, the [Create Traffic Bearer traffic Task]
window will pop up, as shown in Figure 2-4. As described above, choose the measure
unit "Office direction incoming office traffic".

2-4

Figure 2-4 Creating a bearer traffic task

2.2.3 Choosing a Measure Object

In Figure 2-4, click <Modify…> in the [Measure object] box to pop up the window
[Choose Measure Object], as shown in Figure 2-5. Choose an object instance
according to the restriction and actual demand and add it into the object instance list.
In this case, choose the “Incoming direction” object type and click <Select office>. In
the pop-up window, choose the office direction connected to the toll office----it is Office
direction 1 in this case, then add Office direction 1 into the object instance list. Return
to the window [Choose Measure Object], click <List Of Object Instances to be Added>
to view the chosen measure object in the object list, or delete the chosen measure
object by clicking <Delete>.

Input combined objects in turn according to the elements. Before the input, first
choose the corresponding restriction conditions of each part. Only after that can the
input interface of the elements appear (in Figure 2-5, as the measure object is not a
combined one, the restriction conditions only include “an incoming office direction”).

2.2.4 Selecting or Customizing an Entity

There are two methods to determine an output entity. Select one from the existing
entities or set a new entity, with the details described as follows.
z Select an existing entity. In Figure 2-4, click <modify> in the [entity select] box to
pop up the [Entity Selection] window, as shown in Figure 2-6. In the window,
entities not to be output are put in the [Available Entity] box, while those to be
output are put in the "The Selected Entity” box. Under the default condition, all
entities are put into the “The Selected Entity” box, that is, all entities are output by
default. You can use the four option arrows to adjust the entities to be output.

In Figure 2-7, right click and select "Set custom entity" in the pop-up window, then the
[Set Custom Entity] window will appear, as shown in Figure 2-8. In this case, add a
new entity “NOANS” in the form of percentage integer, which meets the following
calculation format:

NOANS = call connected times (CNT) - answer times (ANS)

In the format, both CNT and ANS are original entities.

After a new entity is set, it will appear in the custom entity list in Figure 2-7. When
creating an office direction incoming traffic task, you can find that this entity is already
available in the “The Selected Entity” box.

In Figure 2-7, select a customized entity to be deleted (multiple entities allowed), then
right click to select "Delete custom entity" in the pop-up window and delete the
chosen entity after confirmation.

In addition, in Figure 2-7, right click to select such functions as querying a custom
entity and print a custom entity.

2.2.5 Setting Other Parameters

Output service: Specify where the traffic statistics report should be sent. By default the
report is sent to the current workstation. It can also be sent to the traffic statistics port
and NM port. In this case, output and send the report to the current workstation, traffic
statistics port and NM port.

Output arrangement: Specify when the traffic statistics report should be output, with
“perperiod output” by default, that is, any result should be output immediately after it is
obtained. “t” or “specific output” can also be selected. “Over threshold” means that no
traffic statistics report is output when the entity measurement value is within the
threshold. A report will be generated only when the measurement value is over the
threshold range. In this case, select “specific output”, with the output time being
specified as 22:00.

Sampling parameter: Some measuring units generate a large quantity of information,


so sampling measurement is required to keep the accuracy and greatly reduce the
burdens on the switch. It is 100% sampling by default. It should be noted that not all
the measuring units have sampling parameters.

Up to now, complete information is specified for the setting up of a traffic statistics task.
Return to the window shown in Figure 2-4 and you can see all the previously set
parameters. Click <OK> to complete the setting up of the traffic statistics task.

To sum up, the essential steps to be considered for creating a traffic statistics task are
as follows:
1) Select the type for a traffic statistics task.
2) Select a measure unit.
3) Determine the range of a measure object by selecting the restriction condition
and object instance.
4) Select entities.
5) Determine the time information, for example, three measure time segments
everyday (a time segment 00:00 to 00:00 is accepted by default if nothing is
specified) or cyclic measurement everyday/every week/every month.

2.3 Modifying a Traffic Statistics Task

Select a traffic statistics task in Figure 2-2, right click to pop up the interface as shown
in Figure 2-12, then select a desired command to modify the task.

Figure 2-12 Traffic task modification

The operations of modifying a traffic statistics task are available in two types,
modification of task status and modification of task attribute.
z Operations of modifying task status include "Activate Traffic Task" and
"Deactivate Traffic Task". As described in Chapter 1, you can make a current
traffic statistics task meet the actual requirements by carrying out the operations
of activation and deactivation and avoid repeated setup and deletion of common
traffic statistics tasks.
z Operations of modifying task attribute include "Add/Delete Traffic Task Entity
Threshold", "Add/Delete Traffic Task Measure Object", "Modify Traffic Task
Sampling Parameter", "Modify Traffic Task Output Entity", "Modify Traffic Task
Time", "Modify Traffic Result Output Device" and "Modify Traffic Result Output
Arrange".
1) To know the operation of the switch by observing whether the measurement
value of an entity is normal, add threshold setting for this entity. To simply record
the measurement value of this entity, delete the existing threshold setting.

2-13
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 2 Traffic Measurement Operations

2) The addition and modification of the measure object instance are a pair of
reciprocal operation commands. For example, the traffic task for two trunk
groups (including two subtasks) has been set up. To add another trunk group
temporarily, just add it into the task as a measure object through adding a
measure object instance, then the number of subtasks increase from 2 to 3.
Similarly, if it is no longer necessary to perform traffic statistics for a trunk group,
delete this trunk group from the task through deleting the measure object
instance, then the number of subtasks decrease to 1.
3) The sampling parameters of a traffic task are set according to the default value.
4) The default time segment begins from 4:00 am to the ending time of
measurement. Sometimes, instead of the maximum value of this time segment,
the maximum value during busy hours (9:00~11:00) is desired, so it is necessary
to clear the maximum value counter at 9:00 by setting the time to clear the
maximum value and set the measurement result to be outputted at 11:00 to get
the maximum measurement result at 9:00~11:00.
In addition, as described in Chapter 1, the measurement result may become
incredible if the task attribute is modified during the measurement. Therefore, it
should be considered whether the measurement result will be affected when a task
attribute is modified.

2.4 Deleting a Traffic Statistics Task

In Figure 2-12, select "Delete traffic task" to delete a selected task or multiple ones.

2.5 Querying Traffic Statistics Tasks

In Figure 2-12, click "List Traffic Task Attribute" to pop up the [Detail Information]
window, as shown in Figure 2-13. The displayed information includes task
Identification (ID), task status, measure unit, original output entity, re-defined output
entity, newly-defined output entity, threshold setting, output sending equipment and
output arrangement.

pull-down menu and type in the dialog box the name of the file saving the traffic
statistics result. After confirmation, the operation of saving the traffic statistics result is
implemented.

In the MML command line interface, the steps for saving the traffic statistics result are
as follows:
1) Select “Start saving execution result” on the [Operation] menu (or press <F11>)
to pop up the dialog box of saving.
2) The default file name is shown in the dialog box, which can be modified, and the
file should be in the RPT*.TXT format, press <Save> to start saving the result of
the traffic task report.
3) Use LST TRFINF and DSP TRFRPT to query the traffic task information and
display the traffic statistics report, and the output traffic task information and
traffic statistics report are saved immediately into a text file.

Chapter 3 Measure Units and Entities

For the purpose of offering a detailed and comprehensive description of the traffic
measurement of the C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System, the chapter shall
introduce fully the measure units and entities provided by the traffic measurement
system.

The following text details the measure unit names, objects & entities of the measure
units, serial numbers & MML words of the entities, and so on.

When reading each measure unit, pay attention to the following points.
z The result type of each measure unit is of either short type or long type. Most are
of short type. It is because, in general, the number of entities (the result) is not
more than 45 and the specified maximum length of the short result is 45 at
present. The length can be redefined if it does not meet the requirements in the
future. While, some results, for example, Dispersion Duration Traffic, need to be
presented in long result because the number of entities may be more than 45.
Due to the minority of the measure units with long result, the division of results to
long and short ones saves the memory as well as the communication bandwidth
between the Front Administration Module (FAM) & Back Administration Module
(BAM). It should be noted that the maximum length of long result is 255 when
optimizing the traffic measurement. In addition, some results, with the number of
entities less than 45, are presented in long result. This is because the result
length may be expanded in the future.
z Meanings of most measure units and entities are offered except the very explicit
ones. The entities marked with Note: Invisible to users in the column of Entity
name/entity meaning are invisible on the background, but they have already
been output to the background from the FAM. This is different from the controlled
output of the Entity Bit Table. In the latter case, an entity will not be output to the
background if it is set to “No output”.
z The uniform numbering of all the measuring entities helps users to quickly query
entities with the input of the serial numbers when using the MML. The entity
serial numbers are almost consecutive in a measure unit, but not consecutive
from one measure unit to another with the consideration of future quantity
change of entities.
z X and Y in the entity threshold stand for the lower and upper threshold
respectively. The absence of the entity threshold means the entity has no
threshold.

Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

Traffic measurement is mainly applied to measure daily services and provide routine
data for the scheming and management of the telecom network. Besides, it helps
fulfill the analysis of the call loss, the analysis of the call completing rate, flow
promoting, traffic balancing, maximum/minimum value search and call tracing. The
following are descriptions of these functions.

4.1 Querying Call Loss

4.1.1 Analyzing Call Loss Reason by Means of “Failure Reason Traffic”

The measure unit “Failure reason traffic” in the "Total traffic of the office"
measurement task provides measurement results of more than 100 types of call loss
reasons. It helps track down the main reason of a call loss and roughly locates the
fault type.

For example, in an output report, the value of the entity “MODULE INACCESSIBLE
TIMES” is the biggest. Since the failure is often caused by hardware problems (for
example, a link flash interruption is caused by a faulty interface board, damaged fiber
or unstable clock), a hardware problem can be located as the cause of the call loss in
the first place. For another example where the entity “DUAL SEIZURE TIMES” is a big
value in the output report, as the mode of the call seizing the trunk circuit is
determined by the configuration data, the mismatch of the configuration data between
the local and opposite office might be the main cause of the call loss.

4.1.2 Locating Further Problem

The “Failure reason traffic” gives just the least detailed call loss information. However,
more specific call loss descriptions are needed to locate the right cause of a problem,
such as, where the most failed calls are originated, where the most failed calls are
sent, what type the most failed calls are, and what equipment the most failed calls go
through. Such information is available from “Measurement of Total Traffic of the
Office” and “Measurement of Bearer Traffic”, of these contents:
z Measurement of the traffic flow provides information about the calls and failure
causes of eight traffic flows such as outgoing, incoming, local and transit calls.
The measurement involves such units as “internal traffic” and “originating
outgoing traffic”.

4-1
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

z Measurement of the connection type provides information about the connections


and failure causes of such connecting types as toll incoming, toll outgoing, local
incoming and local outgoing calls. The measurement involves such units as
“connecting type traffic” and “ISDN connecting type traffic”.
z Measurement of the office direction provides information about the incoming call
to the local office from some office or the outgoing call from some office, and the
failure causes. It can also measure the incoming or outgoing traffic of every office
direction in a measurement task. The measurement involves such units as
“office direction incoming traffic” and “office direction outgoing traffic”.
z Measurement of the trunk group (TK) provides information about the incoming
call to or the outgoing call from some TK and the failure causes. It can also
measure the incoming or outgoing traffic of every office direction in a
measurement task. The measurement involves such units as “TK incoming
traffic” and “TK outgoing traffic”. The TK measurement can help locate the call
loss caused by a faulty trunk.
z Measurement of the destination provides information about the calls to the
destination cities (for example, Beijing, Shanghai) from the local office and the
failure causes. The measurement involves such units as “destination traffic” and
“destination attribution traffic”. The “Destination” is the number of some prefix in
the called number analysis table. For instance, use the ADD CNACLD or MOD
CNACLD command to set the destination number of the prefix "010" to 0. By
numbering each of the prefixes in the called number analysis table and setting
the measurement task, you can work out the information of the calls and failure
causes. The destination traffic measurement helps determine on the connection
status of calls to a destination through transfers so as to optimize route selection.
z Measurement of the user line group provides information about the calls and
failure causes of each module and each subscriber frame. By measuring each
subscriber frame, you can find out the subscriber frames to which the most failed
calls occur. The measurement involves “user line group traffic”.
z Measurement of a single subscriber provides information about the calls of a
particular subscriber. After a call failure is located to a subscriber frame, conduct
statistic analysis of every subscriber (totally 400 subscribers at most to be
measured simultaneously) of the frame to find out the subscriber who places the
most failed calls. The measurement involves “single user traffic”.
z Measurement of the ISDN service provides information about the calls of some
ISDN services. By measuring each of ISDN services, you can find out the ISDN
service that produces the most failed calls. The measurement involves such
units as “ISDN bearer traffic” and “ISDN terminal service traffic”.
z Measurement of the ISDN interface provides information about the calls and
failure causes of some ISDN interfaces. By measuring each of the ISDN
interfaces, you can find out the ISDN interface to which the most failed calls

4-2
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

occur. The measurement involves such units as “ISDN BRA traffic” and “ISDN
PRA traffic”.
Suppose the failure cause is “long time no answer”, carry out the following steps to
handle the problem.
1) Set up a bearer traffic measurement task. Select “user line group traffic” as the
measure unit with all modules being the measure object, and select “terminal call
ringed no answer times” as the output entity, and set the rest information as
required. Once the task finishes, query the output report to find the modules
whose subscribers have the greatest “long time no answer times". Suppose it’s
the No. 1 module, thus locating the fault to the module level.
2) Create another bearer traffic measurement task. Select “user line group traffic”
as the measure unit, with the “No. 1 module + all frames of No. 1 module” as the
measure object, and still select “terminal call ringed no answer times” as the
output entity, while the rest information remains unchanged. Once the task
finishes, query the output report to find the frame whose subscribers have the
greatest “long time no answer times", thus locating the fault to the subscriber
frame level.
3) Use “single user traffic” to locate the fault to a specific subscriber and use “office
direction outgoing office traffic” or “office direction incoming office traffic” to
locate the fault to a specific board corresponding to the office direction.

4.1.3 Finding Further Cause by Means of “Call Record”

Once the key cause of call loss is located to specific subscribers, the traffic
measurement task of call record may be used to observe the calls of these
subscribers. Different from the real-time and dynamic connection tracing on the
maintenance console, the call record traffic measurement task can preset the record
time and sampling rate and automatically record every call of the subscriber, including
the dialed number, time of every step in the connection, failure cause, sequence of
route selection.

You can find some rough causes of call loss through querying the call record. For
example, query "long time no answer times" to judge whether the hardware is
disconnected, or whether the called number is unused, or even to find the cause of
call loss directly in the call record, for example, whether the subscriber often performs
such invalid operations as "releasing before ringing", "no dial for long time", "dialing
unallocated number".

4.1.4 Finding Essential Call Loss Reason

Generally, it’s impossible to locate essential call loss reasons directly by means of
traffic measurement. However, the measure units (for example, “signaling and
interface traffic” and “inter running measurement”), together with some maintenance

4-3
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

approaches concerning alarm, self-loop test and signaling analysis, can be used to
locate some essential call loss problems, especially those signaling and link
problems.

For example, set up a signaling and interface traffic measurement task. Select “ISUP
abnormity traffic” as the measure unit, output all entities, and set the rest information
as required. Query the output result and find that the output value of the T17 receiving
no RSC acknowledgment is a bit great. It’s found through the ISUP signaling analysis
that the ISUP sends the RSC message to a circuit once every 30 seconds till it
receives an acknowledgement message (for example, RLC). If it receives no
acknowledgement message after 20 attempts of sending RSC, it will start the T17
timer (10-minute timer) to send the RSC once every 10 minutes till an
acknowledgement message is received. This item measures the event that no circuit
reset acknowledgement is received within T17 after the delayed sending (as opposed
to the RSC sending once every 30 seconds) of the RSC. Therefore, the call loss is
very likely caused by the fact that the circuit fails to reset after receiving the RSC
message.

4.2 Distributing Busy Traffic

Busy traffic refers to great number of calls or heavy traffic. Usually great number of
calls only results in a higher CPU occupancy ratio without affecting the system too
much. However, heavy traffic reflects the occupancy state of resources and in this
case, according to the traffic Formula, considerable call loss will occur. By distributing
busy traffic, it means to arrange the rational use of resources in the light of traffic, thus
reducing call losses. It’s obvious that the key to distributing busy traffic is to measure
and monitor the use of such key resources as trunks and Specialized Resource
Module (SRM).

Measurements that can be used to observe the global traffic or traffic of various parts
are measurement of the traffic flow, measurement of the connection type,
measurement of the office direction, measurement of the trunk group, measurement
of the destination, measurement of the subscriber line group, measurement of the
non-queue public unit and measurement of the queue public unit. These
measurements provide information about use of various resources. Take prompt
measures for resources whose traffic is too much to be carried so as to avoid serious
call loss. For instance, if quite a lot of people in a community access the Internet for a
very long time, this can easily result in very large traffic and very serious call loss
correspondingly. In this case, the telecom operator is recommended to purchase
more equipment or upgrade the equipment.

So far, the switching capacity in many areas is quite large and it’s very seldom that the
global resource falls short. Therefore, it’s not quite often that the traffic measurement
is needed to implement the busy traffic distributing. However, in some special cases,

4-4
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

unreasonable configuration will cause unbalanced traffic distribution, which might


cause the switch short of resources. In some peak-traffic time (holidays or festivals),
heavy traffic might also lead to the short supply of the switch resource. In these cases,
the accumulated traffic measurement information should help with distributing busy
traffic to ensure normal communication.

4.3 Balancing Traffic

As the C&C08 Switch is of the distributed architecture, it is drawing particular attention


in data configuration and routine maintenance that how the traffic load can be evenly
allocated to all modules, then evenly allocated to subscriber frames and trunk groups.
Suppose, because of the unreasonably configured data, either the traffic is gathered
on one module or calls are made frequently between modules, then the distributed
structure will be transformed into a centralized one, losing its original advantages
such as scattered traffic load, large system capacity and strong processing capability.
To balance the traffic in a static and predictive way is to evenly allocate the traffic load
to respective resources during the course of data configuration. The data optimization
with traffic statistics is a kind of feedback traffic balancing that is dynamic and
effect-oriented.

For instance, it’s hard to predict that, during early data configuration, which subscriber
will have large traffic or subscribers of which number segments will have heavy traffic.
If there are many “networm” subscribers or some hot lines (on stock research report,
social investigation, and so on) in a subscriber frame, call loss will become more
serious and call completing rate will be lowered down. If the result of traffic
measurement is used to help optimize data configuration, the traffic can be distributed
more flexibly as required, thus facilitating traffic balancing.

It’s evident that operations of maximum/minimum value subscriber processing and


traffic balancing are supplementary for each other. At the same time of
maximum/minimum value subscriber processing, traffic is also being balanced, thus
avoiding unreasonable allocation of resources. However, the maximum/minimum
value subscriber processing emphasizes particularly on traffic distribution, it boosts
up the call completing rate sharply in a short period of time, anyhow, this operation
demands frequent maintenance work and quite a huge work. After some time, the
“maximum/minimum value subscriber” accounted everyday may not be so centralized,
and the processing of them will just have a very weak effect on traffic balancing.
However, traffic balancing can implement reasonable usage of limited resource in a
long period though it may not necessarily exert a profound influence on traffic
distribution. For an office with rather small capacity or a time segment with heavy
traffic, traffic balancing is a very effective way to enhance the call completing rate.

4.4 Searching Maximum/Minimum Value

The traffic measurement function can help search for the maximum/minimum value
user such as a top usage user. By analyzing call-originating of these
maximum/minimum value users (or maximum/minimum value trunks), you can find
out major factors affecting the call completing rate. Then take relevant measures
(hardware restoration, supplementary service provision, voice transfer, and so on) to
raise the call completing rate quickly.

4.4.1 Measurement of Top Usage User

With the measure unit of “top usage user traffic” in the "Measurement of
Maximum/Minimum Values" task, you can find out the top 10 users with the heaviest
traffic and the total seizure time from 4:00 AM to the end of the measurement. The
“total time of seizure” refers to the total time when the user acts as a caller or called
party.

The “top usage user” refers to a user with the heaviest traffic. Heavy traffic implies
serious call loss and impact on other services. For instance, the telephone service
and fax service may affect each other if they share the common resource, and if the
telephone traffic is heavy, the fax service shall be affected. In addition, some users
(networm, for instance) will use the system resource exclusively, thus decreasing
available resources and aggravating call losses.

To solve top usage user problems, it’s advised to install more subscriber lines, use
ISDN, adopt the call forwarding on busy and call forwarding to voice mailbox, and so
on.

4.4.2 Measurement of Top Called Busy User

With the measure unit of “top called busy user traffic”, you can find out the top 10
called busy users and the total times of called busy from 4:00 AM to the end of the
measurement. The “times of called busy” refers to the total times of no reply of the
called party because he/she is busy.

As "called busy" is a kind of call loss, the quick and effective way to raise the call
completing rate is to process the called busy user. To solve the problems, it’s advised
to adopt supplementary services, install more subscriber lines, adopt the call
forwarding to voice mailbox and call forwarding to voice time slot.

4.4.3 Measurement of Top Ringed No Answer User

With the measure unit of “top ringed no answer traffic”, you can find out the top 10
ringed no answer users and their total times of ringed no answer from 4:00 AM to the

4-6
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

end of the measurement. The “times of ringed no answer” refers to the total times of
no answer of the called.

This problem may be caused by the grounding or broken lines in the hardware, or an
unused called number, or even the user not in home for long. To solve the problem,
just start hardware test, view the configuration data, re-use the unused number,
forward to another number, install voice mailbox, and so on, as required.

Note that as in different offices, the “ringed no answer duration” is set differently, the
following might be inevitable. For the incoming destination call, as the ringed no
answer duration is set to be rather short at the opposite office, it judges the local office
as “ringed no answer” and disconnects the line. However, the ringed no answer
duration is set to be rather long at the local office, but because the opposite office has
disconnected the line, the local office can but judge the opposite office as “release
before ringing”.

4.4.4 Measurement of Top Call Loss User

With the measure unit of “top call loss traffic”, you can find out the top 10 call loss
users and their times of call losses from 4:00 AM to the end of the measurement. The
“times of call losses” refers to the total times of no answer of the user who is the
calling party.

There are reasons that may cause a call loss, either a software/hardware problem or
a human factor. The hardware problem refers to an unintentional hook-on or hook-off
or faulty equipment (faulty subscriber board or subscriber line). The software problem
refers to process suspension. The human factor may mean that the user often hooks
on or hooks off or dials an unallocated number for no purpose. Before handling the
problem, further locate the call loss reason. In this case, use the call record traffic
measurement task to record the calls of these top call loss users, which will serve as
the basis for further analysis. If necessary, multiple offices may have to coordinate to
find out the reason of the call loss.

The following is a simple example.

The relationship between several offices of one place is:

Office 888 ------------Office 666--------------Office 333

Through the measurement of top call loss users, the user 8888888 in the Office 888 is
found out to be the top call loss user. Through the tracing of outgoing calls, it’s found
that the user 8888888 frequently calls the user 3333333 in Office 333 and the call loss
reason is “no available resource”.

The fault cannot be located to be in Office 666 or Office 333 by referring to “no
available resource”. In this case, set up the measurement item “call record”

4-7
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

respectively in Office 666 and Office 333, to measure the calls with the calling number
of 88888888. Thus the fault can be located in either Office 666 or Office 333. For
example, if the failure cause is found to be “equipment congestion” in Office 666,
while no calls from 8888888 is measured in Office 333, the fault then can be located to
be in Office 666.

When the calling number (or calling prefix) is specified, the failure of a call forwarded
through many offices can be located exactly in a certain office. This method is
particularly applicable to the CAS and TUP signaling with little information being
carried.

4.4.5 Measurement of Top Idle TK Circuit

By means of the “top idle TK circuit traffic” unit in the maximum/minimum value traffic
measurement task, the trunk circuits and group numbers with the least total seizure
duration can be measured between 4:00 AM to the end of the measurement. The total
duration of trunk seizure refers to the total time when the trunk circuit is occupied. The
idlest trunk measurement excludes the trunk circuits that are not installed. The idlest
trunk measurement can help improve the circuit utility.

4.4.6 Maximum/Minimum Value Measurement

At present, specific user scope can be defined when the traffic measurement function
is used to search for the maximum/minimum value users. The range can be the whole
office, one module, users of a certain type (distinguished by user type + user number),
or a Centrex group. Through setting measure objects, you can find out the top 10
maximum/minimum value users of a specific (or every) module or Centrex group.

The maximum/minimum value measured is the cumulative value calculated from 4:00
AM to the current time (at the end of the measurement). Sometimes, the
maximum/minimum value of 9:00~11:00 (busy hours) instead of the whole time
segment is desired. In this case, use the SET TRFTPTM command to clear the
maximum/minimum value counter at 9:00, and set the task to output the
measurement result at 11:00.

Considering that searching maximum/minimum value consumes huge CPU resource,


keep a small quantity of the maximum/minimum value measurement tasks, especially
that of the subtasks. A task in case of full configuration of subscriber lines should have
only one subtask preferably. If many maximum/minimum value tasks exist, set the
time to output results to different time, and avoid the busy hours preferably.

4.5 Tracing Calls

The function of call tracing at the maintenance console can be used to trace a
telephone in real time, and save the tracing information. However, there are
restrictions on the call tracing at the maintenance console. For example, the number
of users traced simultaneously is limited, only specific users instead of a specified
range can be traced, startup of a tracing at a preset time is impossible, and tracing
information cannot be filtered automatically.

The above restrictions can be overcome by the two measure units of the call record
traffic task, that is, “dispersion duration traffic” and “service quality traffic”. Thus
tracing of mass calls becomes possible, measurement results are available as soon
as calls end, calls can be filtered in real time through the filter mechanisms which are
inherent in the traffic measurement, for example, inlet, outlet, destination code, call
attribute, host number and failure cause. Besides, the call tracing can be performed in
any predefined time or time segment through the time predefining mechanism of the
traffic measurement. After filtering, the call of heavy traffic can be further measured
through sampling.

4.6 Locating Factors Influencing Call Completing Rate

The call completing rate, or rather, answer rate, is a key index for appraising the
operation quality of the equipment.

Factors influencing the call completing rate include equipment status, data
configuration, network planning and even human factors. Therefore, to greatly
increase the call completing rate, first locate major factors that affect the call
completing rate, then take corresponding measures. Traffic measurement is
absolutely the effective way to resolve the above problem.

The C&C08 Switch provides powerful traffic measurement functions, which can be
used to perform detailed measurement and statistics on the whole system. By
examining and analyzing the outputs, you can find out how various factors influence
the call completing rate. The above mentioned methods are all applications of using
the traffic measurement to locate the factors which influence the call completing rate.
Here are some instances for reference.

I. No user answers

[Symptom]

The incoming multiple traffic measurement results indicate that there are many failed
calls caused by “no user answers” in one office.

[Analysis]

4-9
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

Set up a service quality task for call records and find in the measurement result the
failed calls caused by “no user answers”. It is found out that on most occasions the
failure is caused when the user 010684**** calls the DSL user 517**** of the local
office. After investigation, the user is connected through a standby router path. Due to
the failure of the called Network Terminal 1 (NT1), the caller cannot be connected
successfully, and he/she dials again and again, thus producing many failed calls.

[Solution]

Coordinate relevant departments to solve it.

II. Low connection ratio of incoming toll calls in an office

[Symptom]

The call completing rate of incoming toll calls of an office is as low as 43%. The traffic
measurement indicates that the called busy ratio is as high as 40%, which is the most
important factor that affects the call completing rate.

[Analysis]

According to the actual condition of the office, the key point to increase the completing
rate of incoming calls is to perform the busy traffic distributing. With regard to the
network configuration of the office, the method and target of distributing busy traffic
are as follows:
1) The office party provides the voice mailbox (198123456) for forwarding on busy.
2) Find top usage user through traffic measurement analysis, and arrange the busy
and idle subscribers in sequence.
[Solution]

Set the function of call forwarding to voice mailbox on busy for the top usage users
one by one. It is required that the quantity of the forwarded users is less than 100, and
the call completing rate should be raised from 43% to above 53%. According to the
measurement result of top usage users, set the function of call forwarding to voice
mailbox on busy, starting with the topmost usage user.

After the function is configured for the first 80 top usage users, the completing rate of
the incoming toll calls is raised from 43% to 60%. The measurement result of the local
office is as same as that of the toll office. Thus, the distribution of busy traffic is
successful, and the completing rate of incoming calls is greatly improved.

III. Low completing rate of outgoing calls

[Symptom]

The completing rate of outgoing calls to MS2 (5ESS) of an office is low.

4-10
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

[Analysis]

According to the measurement of the outgoing traffic, there are lots of call losses
caused by dual seizures. According to the trunk traffic, the average traffic of each line
is only 0.3-0.4 Erls. The line selection mode is “minimum” and that of MS2 (5ESS)
office is “maximum”. However, the “minimum” of the C&C08 Switch indicates the
equipment number is minimum, while the “maximum” of MS2 (5ESS) indicates the
Circuit Identification Code (CIC) number is maximum. Therefore, if the equipment No.
of the C&C08 Switch and the CIC are of different coding sequence, dual seizure may
happen when the circuit is not busy.

[Solution]

After the modification of the line selection mode of the switch to “Master/Slave”, the
dual seizure will disappear, and the call completing rate becomes normal.

4.7 Other Applications

According to the above introduction, on most occasions, traffic measurement is used


as a powerful auxiliary method. In addition to such applications as errors checking,
busy traffic distributing and traffic balancing, there are also some simple applications
as follows.

I. Checking the running status of the global equipment

It is impossible to review the equipment running status directly with the traffic
measurement. However, it is possible to find out problems through checking the traffic
measurement result, especially the call loss reasons related to the equipment (such
as call loss caused by switch network failure). In this way, the equipment failure can
be found out and delimitated as soon as possible.

For example, set up a "total traffic of the office" measurement task. Select “origination
traffic” as the measure unit, and the measure object is fixed as all user lines. Select
“switch network blocking call loss times”, ”common resource unavailable call loss
times”, ”system fault call loss times” and “blocked by auto call loss times” as output
entities, and set the rest information as required.

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=20, MU=OR,

ENTSET=NETBLCL&CMRUAVCL&SYSFLCL&ALBLCL&FWCTLCL;

The call loss condition is available in the output report when the task finishes. The
equipment running status can be figured out according to the call loss condition. For
example, if the value of the “switch network blocking call loss times” is big in the
measurement result, the fault may occur in the switching network board.

4-11
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 4 Traffic Measurement Application

Or create a "total traffic of the office" measurement task. Select “failure reason traffic”
as the measure unit. Select failure reasons of related equipment as output entities,
and set the rest information as required. The failure cause condition is available in the
output report when the task finishes. The equipment running status can be figured out
according to the call loss condition.

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=21, MU=FLRSN;

II. Finding the internal traffic and outgoing (or incoming) traffic of the local
office

The ratio of internal traffic to outgoing (or incoming) traffic determines the type of the
hardware configuration of the local office. If most of the traffic is internal traffic, the
local office should be mainly configured with subscriber modules. If most of the traffic
is outgoing (or incoming) traffic, the local office should be mainly configured with trunk
modules.

For example, set up three "total traffic of the office" measurement tasks, measuring
respectively the internal, outgoing and incoming traffic. Select “inner traffic”, ”outgoing
office traffic” and ”incoming office traffic” as measure units. Select ”call attempt times”
and ”call connected times” for output entities, and set the rest information as required.
The percentages of the internal traffic, outgoing traffic and incoming traffic are
available in the output report when the task finishes.

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=22, MU=INT (inner traffic), ENTSET=PEGS (call attempt times)
& CNT (call connected times);

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=23, MU=OG (outgoing traffic), ENTSET=SEIZ (call seizure times)
& CNT (call connected times);

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=24, MU=INC (incoming traffic), ENTDEL=SEIZ (call seizure


times) & ANS (call answering times);

III. Finding the transit condition in the transit office

The transit traffic in the transit office indicates the transit condition. The following "total
office of the office" measurement task can be set up to find the transit condition.
Select “transfer traffic” as the measure unit, and fix the measure objects as all
incoming and bi-directional circuits, and set the rest information as required. When
the task finishes, view the output report to get the transit information.

CRE TRFOTF: TSK=25, MU=TRN (transfer traffic);

Or set up such a "total traffic of the office" measurement task. Select “connecting type
traffic” as the measure unit, ”toll call transferring” and ”international call transferring”
as measure objects, and set the rest information as required. When the task finishes,
view the output report to get the transit information.

Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

Reasonable selection of the statistics task, measure unit, measure object and output
entity is the key for correctly using the traffic statistics system, and it is also a common
problem in the process of actual application. Moreover, there are problems such as
crossing of traffic statistics periods. The solutions to these problems are described as
follows.

5.1 How to Select a Traffic Statistics Task

Usually, determine the type of a traffic statistics task according to the attribute of the
measure object. For example, to measure the outgoing traffic of all the subscribers of
an office, obviously, the measure objects include all the subscriber lines, which means
the measurement is global. Therefore, select the "total traffic of the office" statistics
task. To count the calls of several subscribers with the heaviest traffic, select the
"extremum traffic" statistics task because the measured objects are specially busy
subscribers. To measure the use of the operator console, select the "public
component" statistics task because the operator console is a public component.

In some special cases, one measurement activity can be accomplished by multiple


traffic statistics tasks. For example, to count the traffic in a specific office direction,
both bearer object task (with “office direction incoming office traffic” and “office
direction outgoing office traffic” as the measure units) and call record task (with “multi
condition object traffic” as the measure unit) can be selected. In this case select the
most appropriated task according to other conditions (for example, the requirements
of the measure unit and output entity). If it is necessary to observe the use of a
supplementary service, set up the call record statistics task because the default
output entities in this task include those which reflect the use of a supplementary
service (such as “supplementary service use succeeded” and “supplementary service
use failed”).

C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

5.2 How to Select a Measure Unit

There are two methods of selecting measure units.


z One is to select the measure unit according to the measurement contents after
the type of a traffic statistics task is determined. For example, to measure the
internal traffic of all the subscribers in an office, first determine the task type as a
"total traffic of the office" statistics task, then select “inner traffic” as the measure
unit according to the measurement contents.
z The other is to determine the measure unit directly according to the attribute of
the measure object. For example, if the measure object is MFC, directly select
“unqueue public unit traffic” as the measure object because MFC is an unqueue
public component.
Similar to the traffic statistics task, one measurement activity can also correspond to
multiple measure units in some special cases. At this time, select the most
appropriate measure unit according to other conditions (for example, the
requirements of the measure object and output entity) and set up corresponding traffic
statistics task.

5.3 How to Select a Measure Object

In some traffic statistics tasks, the measure objects are fixed and not optional, such as
the measure object of the "total traffic of the office" statistics task. However, in most of
the traffic statistics tasks, the measure objects are optional.

Select the measure objects of a single composition (such as a subscriber, subscriber


group or service) on the basis of actual demands or working habits. For example, in
the “supplementary service traffic” unit, the object types to be selected include
abbreviated dialing, hotline service, waking-up service and do-not-disturb service.
Suppose the abbreviated dialing and waking-up service are the main concern in this
measurement, so add these two object types into the object instance list. Another
example is that in the “single user traffic” unit, a single user is described in three
modes, namely, internal code, external code and port number, any of which can be
selected. It should be pointed out that the same description mode must be selected
for the same type of objects in the same task. For example, in a specific task,
“subscriber inner code” and “subscriber external code” cannot be used at the same
time, and even with the same description mode, the user type must be consistent in
the description.

For measure objects of combined object types, determine the elements and their
description modes usually according to actual demands. If it is unnecessary to match
a certain element, select “all……” for this element (such as all objects and all trunks).
For example, in the “multi condition object traffic” unit, the measure object is

5-2
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

composed of five parts, that is, inlet, outlet, call attribute, destination code and caller
number. Suppose the measurement purpose is to view the internal traffic from a
certain module to another module, so select “MID group of inlet subscriber” for the
inlet description mode, “MID group of outlet subscriber” for the outlet description
mode, “local” for the call attribute, “all destination code” for the destination code and
“all calling number” for the calling number. Suppose the measurement purpose is to
view all the traffic from a specific calling number to a specific destination, then type the
calling number and destination code according to the measurement requirement and
select “all…….” for other components.

5.4 How to Determine an Output Entity

All the entities of a task are output under the default condition. However, in practical
application, the user often only cares about a part of the entities, and too many output
entities will affect the readability of the output report. Therefore, it is necessary to
determine the output entity according to actual demands. For example, the major
purpose of the measurement of the incoming traffic is to view the causes of various
failures in the call process, then the entities related to it (such as incomplete dialing-up
times, invalid address times, call loss due to switching network congestion and call
loss due to common resources unavailable) should be listed in the “selected entity”
field. Besides the optional entities, the user can define the entity to make it an entity
which can be output.

5.5 Solutions to Other Common Problems

5.5.1 When to Output the Traffic Statistics Result

For most of the traffic statistics tasks, the results cannot be obtained until the
measurement period is completed. For example, a statistics task of the incoming
traffic of a trunk group is created at 8:50 with the start time as 9:00 and the statistics
period as one hour. The first statistical report will be output when a complete statistics
period ends, that is, at 10:00 (note: the report is usually output at an integer hour),
corresponding to a statistical time segment from 9:00 to 10:00. However, if this traffic
statistics task is created at 9:10, then the first result report will be output at 11:00
(because it is not a complete statistical period from 9:10 to 10:00, no statistical report
will be output during this time segment).

In addition, for a few measure units such as service quality evaluation, traffic
distribution and duration count, and intelligent sampling tracing, as one statistical
report will be output for each call which meets the statistical conditions, the
measurement period will no longer be meaningful, and the above problems will not
occur.

C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

5.5.2 How to Understand Questions of Period-Crossing Traffic Statistics

Take the statistics of the incoming traffic of the trunk group as an example. Both “TK
group incoming traffic” of the bearer object statistics task and “multi condition object
traffic” of the call record statistics task can be selected as the measure unit. Then what
is the difference between them? The difference lies in the fact that the statistics
methods for them are essentially different.

The TK group incoming traffic measurement is based on counters, that is, during
statistics a counter is set at a related position of the service flow, and if any
corresponding event occurs, the counter will increase by one. On the other hand, the
multi condition object traffic measurement is based on messages, that is, after a
conversation ends (pay attention to the “after”), the traffic statistics processing
program of the corresponding process will send a message to the traffic statistics
module to report the information about this conversation, such as the caller, called
and conversation duration. Usually, the statistical results of the two are consistent, but
in the case of period-crossing traffic statistics, there are certain deviations between
the two statistical results.

Each traffic statistics task has a statistics period, which refers to the period of report
outputting, for example, if the statistics period is one hour and the traffic statistics
begins at 9:00, then a statistical report will be output at 10:00. It should be pointed out
that the statistical report should be output at an integer hour (such as 8:00 or 9:00).
However, the following cases may occur: One call begins at 8:50 and ends at 9: 05,
one call begins at 9:55 and ends at 10:10, one call begins at 8:55 and ends at 10:05.
Such cases are called period-crossing. In the following, these three cases are
analyzed with the TK group incoming traffic measurement and multi condition object
traffic measurement as examples (suppose there is only one call during the statistics
period).
1) 8:50~9:05
TK group incoming: There is one seizure in the repot output at 9:00, the traffic
statistics is normal and the average seizure duration is 10 minutes. The number of
seizures in the report output at 10:00 is 0, the traffic statistics is normal and the
average seizure duration is 0.

Multi condition object: In the report output at 9:00, the time seizure is 0 and the
average duration is 0 (note: there is no traffic entity in this measure unit). In the report
output at 10:00, the number of seizure is 1 and the average seizure duration is 15
minutes.
2) 9:55~10:10
This case is similar to that of 8:50~9:05.
3) 8:55~10:05

5-4
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

TK group incoming: There is one seizure in the report output at 9:00, the traffic
statistics is normal and the average seizure duration is 5 minutes. The number of
seizures in the report output at 10:00 is 0, the traffic statistics is normal and the
average seizure duration is 0. The number of seizures in the report output at 10:00 is
0, the traffic statistics is normal and the average seizure duration is 0.

Multi condition object: In the report output at 9:00, the number of seizures is 0 and the
average seizure duration is 0. In the report output at 10:00, the number of seizures is
0 and the average seizure duration is 0. In the report output at 10:00, the number of
seizures is 1 and the average seizure duration is 1 hour and 10 minutes.

Obviously, the two statistics methods have reflected the call information from different
aspects. If period-crossing calls frequently occur (the most typical case is that many
subscribers dial to access the Internet and the conversation duration is usually more
than one hour, but the operator performs traffic statistics with the statistics period of
one hour), the traffic statistics results may be unreasonable, for example, there is
traffic but no seizure, or the average seizure duration lasts too long, even beyond the
statistics period. All these are caused by the period crossing. In some cases, solve the
above problems temporarily by extending the statistics period, but this cannot
eliminate such problems essentially, because the specific call time cannot be
controlled. In addition, the traffic during the common statistics period cannot be
reflected after the statistics period is extended, therefore, the maintenance and
management will be affected. Actually, it is not an error if the period-crossing call
affects the statistics result. It is an objective reflection which is decided by the current
measurement mechanism. Meanwhile, it also indicates that there are different
statistics methods for various traffic statistics tasks, and the results cannot be used for
simple comparison.

5.5.3 Statistics Methods of the Number of Seizures, Seizure Traffic and


Average Seizure Duration and Their Relations

Take the trunk incoming measurement as an example.


z Number of seizures refers to the times that the incoming (bi-directional) trunk
circuit is seized.
z Seizure traffic refers to the traffic transmitted from the incoming (bi-directional)
trunk circuit being seized to the trunk being released.
z Statistics period refers to the period for the output of a statistical report and is
usually one hour.
z The average seizure duration refers to the average duration in a statistical period
from the incoming (bi-directional) trunk being seized to the trunk being released,
which satisfies the following formula:
Average seizure duration = Seizure traffic * Statistics period / Number of seizures

5-5
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

z Traffic: It is the percentage of the time during which the equipment processes the
traffic in the total duration. It has no unit and is expressed in Erl.
1) Statistics of the number of seizures
The statistics of the number of seizures is implemented by a counter, which indicates
the number of seizures on the corresponding software flow points and accumulates
the seizures, for example, if the trunk circuit is seized once, the counter will increase
by one. The traffic statistics module (MS) accesses this counter respectively at the
beginning and ending of the statistics period, and the difference between them is the
seizure counts in this statistics period. As the difference is required, the statistics
results cannot be sent out before a complete statistics period ends in most of the
traffic statistics tasks.
2) Statistics of seizure traffic
Statistics of seizure traffic is implemented by the scanning of the auxiliary traffic. The
auxiliary traffic of the seizure traffic at the corresponding software flow point will be
added or subtracted, that is, if the trunk circuit is seized once, 1 is added and if the
trunk circuit is released once, 1 is subtracted from the auxiliary traffic. Obviously, this
variable reflects altogether how many trunk circuits are seized in a certain time
segment. The timing task of traffic statistics scans this variable every 10 seconds and
adds it into the seizure traffic. When the statistics period ends, the seizure traffic is the
product of the variable and the scanning duration of 10 seconds divided by the total
duration (statistics period).

For example, there are altogether 10 trunk circuits in a trunk group, in case of
scanning at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 or 60 seconds in one minute, the auxiliary traffic of the
seizure traffic is respectively 2, 4, 7, 9, 5 and 1. So, the traffics is (2+4+7+9+5+1)
*10/60 = 4.83.

It should be noted that if the auxiliary traffic of the seizure traffic is scanned every 10
seconds, while the calculation formula shows that the circuit is always seized during
these 10 seconds, there certainly are some deviations. In addition, the seizure traffic
refers to the total traffic of the trunk group, so it must be greater than 1 but less than
the number of total trunk circuits in the trunk group. To ensure the data accuracy, the
foreground usually multiples the traffic by 100 and sends it to the background which
will divide the traffic by 100 and show the figure with two digits of the decimal fractions
being attached.
3) Statistics of average seizure duration
The average seizure duration is a derived quantity whose derivation formula is given
above. However, the following special case may appear during calculation: For
example, if a TK group incoming traffic statistics task is set up with the statistics period
of one minute, and the measurement object is an incoming trunk group with 10 trunk
circuits, all the circuits are always seized. Then what are the number of seizures,
seizure traffic and average seizure duration? In a certain period (60 seconds), as all

5-6
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

the trunk circuits are seized, no event of trunk circuit seizure will occur, the seizure
time is 0, while the auxiliary traffic of the seizure traffic is always 10, therefore, the
traffic is also (10*6) *10/60=10. The seizure duration worked out by the foreground is
10*60=600 seconds, but as the number of seizures is 0, the average seizure duration
is 0.

5.5.4 When Traffic Measurement of ISDN Terminal Service Is Effective

“Traffic measurement of ISDN bearer service” is performed after the network side
receives the SETUP message which includes the ET_BEARER_CAPABILITY
information unit, as this information unit is a compulsory one of the SETUP message,
both the originating calls and received calls can be counted.

“Traffic measurement of ISDN terminal service” is performed after the network side
receives the SETUP message which includes ET_HLC information unit, as this
information unit is an optional one of the SETUP message. If the SETUP message
does not include ET_HLC, this measurement cannot be performed.

First dial an ISDN telephone to call an ASL subscriber, then dial an ASL telephone to
call an ISDN subscriber for traffic statistics. When the ISDN subscriber is the caller,
the digital subscriber side will send the SETUP message including the ET_HLC
information unit, so the originating calls can be counted. When the ISDN subscriber is
the called, as the SETUP message sent by the analog subscriber does not include the
ET_HLC information unit, the received calls cannot be counted.

As the SETUP message sent by the ASL subscriber does not include the ET_HLC
information unit, only the ISDN subscribers will be considered, that is to say, this
function is effective only when both the caller and called are ISDN subscribers.

of answers.

z There is no number of seizures, connections and answers but there are seizure,
connection and answer traffic.
Telecom operators often doubt these problems, but these problems do not mean that
there is something wrong with the traffic statistics. The cause may be that a call which
seizes the trunk in the previous period may not be connected and answered until the
next period, because the dialing process of the subscriber may exceed a period. A call
connected in the previous period may not be answered until the next period. If the call
duration exceeds one period, there may be no number of seizures, connections and
answers but there are seizure, connection and answer traffic.

5.5.6 Inaccurate Traffic Statistics Caused by Modification of Trunk Group


Data

The TK group outgoing traffic measurement is a task of bearer object traffic statistics.
When creating such a statistics task, set up the measure object according to the
selected trunk group and the trunk group table index in the database and allocate the
counters for statistics. However, after the setting of the statistics task, these objects
and counters will not change within a statistics period. When the next statistics period
begins, the measure object will be set up again according to the trunk group table
index in the database and the counters for statistics will be allocated.

Suppose there is a created statistics task. The statistics period is 1 hour beginning at
10:00, and the trunk group data is modified during 10:00~11:00. For example, a trunk
group is added or deleted. The trunk group table index in the database will change
accordingly, but the measure object and counter will not change, so the entire statistic
result cannot reflect the practical situation, then the traffic statistic result is rather
random. The “Result accuracy” item in the output report at 11:00 will also be displayed
as “Data setting”, indicating that the traffic statistic result fails to reflect the practical
situation and is inaccurate. In the statistics of the next period (11:00~12:00), the
system will set up the measure object again according to the trunk group table index
in the database and allocate counters for statistics, therefore, the statistic result in this
period will be correct and “Result accuracy” in the report sent out at 12:00 will be
“Accurate”.

5.5.7 Causes of Incomplete Traffic Statistics

The background will work out the results which should be received by the traffic
statistic task according to the number of traffic statistics subtasks and number of
modules. If the reports cannot be received completely in a specified delayed time
(usually 15 minutes) after the statistic period ends, the received results will be output
and the accuracy will be marked as “Result received incompletely”. As part of the
result is missing, the report will be inaccurate.

Traffic statistic results are not received completely mainly because:


z A certain module is faulty, not activated or communication is congested.
z A certain module is switched or reset in the statistics period.
z A task which will generate a great deal of traffic statistic results has been
registered, such as service quality evaluation.
z There are many Remote Switching Modules (RSM). Due to limited
communication capabilities, when many statistical reports, especially those with
many entities such as office direction outgoing and trunk group outgoing, are
sent, it is probable that the results are not received completely.

5-8
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

z If the processing of the background traffic statistics console is abnormal, the


traffic statistics cannot be received. To resolve the problem, just restart the traffic
statistics console.

5.5.8 Use of the Service Quality Traffic Measurement

The service quality evaluation is unique because it has no statistics period. Once
there is any call satisfying the statistics conditions, a result report will be sent to the
background so as to output the call information in real time. If all inlets, all outlets, all
call attributes, all destination codes, all successful and failed calls are selected as the
measure objects of the combined type, the switch will generate a statistical result for
each call, causing BAM overload and communication congestion. Therefore, be
careful to use the service quality evaluation. If it is used, the range of measure objects
should be limited, for example, a specific incoming trunk group is selected as the inlet,
and a specific destination code is selected as the outlet. In addition, sampling times or
sampling rate can also be set to reduce the number of outputs.

5.5.9 Precautions for Using Max/Min Value Traffic Statistics

The traffic statistics of maximum values is a powerful tool for improving the connection
ratio, but pay attention to the following points when using it.
z The statistics of maximum values must begin at the clearing time of the
maximum value (4:00 by default) and end at the ending hour of the statistics (that
is, the report output hour). For example, to set up a task to make statistic analysis
of busy called users, set the start time to 8:00 and the ending time to 10:00, with
the statistics period of one hour. There will be two time points at which the switch
outputs reports everyday for the statistics task, that is, 9:00 and 10:00. The
report output at 9:00 gives the top 10 busy called users during 4:00~9:00, while
the report output at 10:00 gives the top 10 busy called users during 4:00~10:00.
z The statistics of maximum values must begin at the clearing time of the
maximum value because the statistics must be performed continuously to all
subscribers of a module, so a great deal of memory overhead is needed.
Therefore, the result is not obtained from the difference between the values of
two counters (while it is the case for ordinary statistic entities), instead, it is
obtained through counter accumulation. In addition, as the maximum value
needs continuous sorting, and the system loads are heavy, it is better not to use
it for a long time.
z To perform the statistics of maximum values in a certain time segment, for
example, the statistics during 9:00~10:00, just modify the SET TRFTPTM
command to set the clearing time of the maximum value as 9:00. Then the
maximum values in the time segment of 9:00~10:00 can be counted.

5.5.10 Why “Number of Answers + Number of Failures < Number of Seizure


Attempts (Seizures)”

In the statistics of the outgoing and incoming traffic of a trunk group or an office
direction, the number of failures only shows the main causes. Therefore, the sum of
the number of answers and that of failures is less than the number of seizures
because the number of failures counted here is incomplete. To obtain all the failures,
use the multi condition object traffic statistics which provides all the failure causes,
and the result will be “number of answers + number of failures = number of seizures”.

5.5.11 Why Some Entity Results are “Unknown” in Multi Condition Object
Traffic Statistics

The multi condition object traffic statistics, failure cause summary and intelligent
sampling tracing are long-result measure units (that is, many output entities), and also
provide the statistics of more than one hundred failure causes. If all entities are output,
the readability of the output report will be affected. Therefore, the system sends only
the statistical results which are not “0” to the background. The background also
outputs selectively according to the results. For example, conduct statistic analysis of
two multi condition objects, and count the failure causes for the office direction 1 and
office direction 2 respectively. The failure caused by “Call restricted” occurs in the
office direction 1 twice, while the failure caused by “No-dialing timeout” occurs in the
office direction 2 for threes times. The reports are as follows:

Office direction 1:

........

Call restricted 2

........

Office direction 2:

........

No-dialing timeout 3

........

However, to count the failure causes for the office direction 1 and office direction 2 in
the traffic statistics of one multi condition object, the report is as follows.

Office direction 1 Office direction 2

.......

5-10
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Chapter 5 Solutions to Common Problems

Call restricted 2 Unknown

No-dialing timeout Unknown 3

........

This is because multiple objects and their failure causes in the traffic statistics of the
multi condition object correspond to each other one by one. For example, “Call
restricted” occurs in the office direction 1, so it will be displayed in the report, but there
is no such failure cause in the office direction 2, thus with no value of this entity in the
result to be sent to the background, so the background cannot obtain this entity value,
and can only display “Unknown” for output.

5.5.12 Measurement of Access Network Users

The telecom operator often hopes to count the access network users from the switch
side according to the Optical Network Unit (ONU) or the module number (or frame
number) of the access network. Actually, the switch is connected to the access
network through V5-interfaces, therefore, the ONU and module number (frame
number) of the access network are invisible for the switch, so the statistics cannot be
performed directly. However, indirect statistics can be performed through flexible
restriction of the multi condition object traffic statistics, mainly through the calling
numbers of the access network users.

To count the access network users, first ensure that respective ONUs or access
network modules can be distinguished by the prefix, that is, the characteristics of the
calling numbers.

To count the calls when access network users are the calling parties, type the
corresponding calling numbers. For example, to count the calls when the access
network users of a frame are callers, with the numbers 1234000~1234299, type
“k'12340&&k'12342” as the calling number, skip other parts of the measure object
(such as inlet, outlet, call attribute and destination code) or select “All” for them. Select
“Summary by period” for the output report options, then the report will list the
statistical results with users of 1234000~1234299 serving as callers.

To count the calls when access network users are the called parties, type the
corresponding destination codes. For example, to count the calls when the access
network users of a frame are called parties, with the numbers 1234000~1234299,
type “k'12340&&k'12342” in the destination code column, skip other parts of the
measure object (such as inlet, outlet, call attribute and destination code) or select “All”
for them. Select “Summary by period” for the output report options, then the report will
list the statistical results with users of 1234000~1234299 serving as called parties.

5.5.13 Influence on Traffic Statistics during Version Upgrade

During version upgrade, both the operator console program and host program may
vary, and the related data of traffic statistics may change as well. If the original traffic
statistic task is still used, such aspects as objects and data may not cooperate well. In
addition, the module may be restarted in the process of upgrade, causing the traffic
statistic task to be interrupted temporarily, resulting in the confusion of traffic statistic
results. Therefore, delete all the traffic statistic tasks before an upgrade and then
create them again after the upgrade completes and all modules work normally.

Mode

A.1 Creating a Traffic Statistics Task

Different from the graphic-aided input, the command line-aided input generally needs
to create a traffic statistics task on a single interface (as shown in Figure A-1). The
traffic statistics operations in the MML command line mode is illustrated as follows.
Suppose to measure the supplementary calls from No. 6 office direction to the
destination code 6543452 (its DN set is 0) for 50 days starting on December 12, 2001.
The traffic is measured in three time segments, namely, 7:00~9:00, 12:00~14:00 and
17:00~19:00 from Monday to Thursday of each week. The measurement cycle is one
hour, and the traffic result is permanent periodically output to the current workstation.
The sampling ratio of the measurement is set as 10%. The operation procedures are
as follows.

Figure A-1 Creating a traffic statistics task

A-1
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Appendix A Operations in MML Command Line Mode

It is obvious that the measure unit corresponding to this task is


"Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic". Since the "Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic" belongs
to the call record task, select [Traffic statistics/Create traffic statistics job/Create Call
Record Task (CRE TRFCLR)]. The corresponding command will appear in the

[Command input] box on the right bottom of the interface. Click the icon, and an
interface for inputting the parameters of this task will appear.

According to the task conditions, set the [task ID] to a correct task ID, the [measure
unit] to "MICDT" (Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic), the [period] to “H1 (1 hour)”, the
[start time 1] to “07&00”, the [end time 1] to “09&00”, the [start time 2] to “12&00”, the
[end time 2] to “14&00”, the [start time 3] to “17&00”, the [end time 3] to “19&00”, the
[start date] to “2001&12&12” and the [duration days] to “50”. As the measurement
days are fixed from Monday to Thursday of each week, set the [measure days cycle]
to “WEEK (weekly cyclic)”. If the measurement is performed everyday, set it to “DAY
(daily cycle)". If the measurement is performed in a few days regularly per month, set
it to “MONTH (monthly cycle)”. Set the [measure day] to “1&4”, which indicates the
days from Monday to Thursday. Set the [output device] to “CWS (current workstation)”,
the [output mode] to “PP (permanent periodically output)”. Since the “permanent
periodically output” is selected, the output time is not necessary to be set. Set the
[sampling rate] to “10”, which indicates that the sampling rate is 10%.

Finally, select measurement objects. In the measure unit of


“Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic”, the measurement objects include five parts, namely,
incoming terminal, outgoing terminal, call attributes, destination code and calling
number. Not all parts need to be matched. In this example, only the incoming office
direction, outgoing subscriber code and call attribute need to be matched. Therefore,
set the [inlet office direction] to “6”, the [external code of outlet subscriber frame] to
“0-k'6543452”, and the [call attribute] to “NS (call of supplementary service)”.
Although it is not necessary to match the destination code and the calling number,
“all......” must be selected as required. Therefore, set the [all destination codes] and
[all caller numbers] “ALL”.

So far, all parameters for this task have been entered. Click the icon to complete
the creation of the task.

Note:
It should be noted that the parameters vary with the measure units.

A.2 Setting a Customized Entity

Select [Traffic statistics/Modify traffic statistics job/Set Custom Entity (SET


CUSTENT)] in the navigation tree on the left side of the interface, and the SET
CUSTENT command will appear in the [command input] box on the right bottom of the

interface. Click the icon , and an interface displaying the parameters of the
command will appear. The [entity alias] is a string of English letters, the [entity name]
is a combination of letters and numbers, the [entity unit] and [entity type] are
determined according to the entity features. The [redefine entity] is valid only when
the existing entity is being modified and indicates the modified entity. The [formulae] is
used for the calculations of the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of the
existing entities (specified as alias). The aliases of the existing entities can be
searched in the [redefine entity].

Suppose to define a new entity “abandon times” (ABN as entity alias) in the
“Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic” unit. It complies with the formula "ABN = BRGABN +
ARGABN", in which, "BRGABN" indicates the number of abandons before the
telephone rings, and the "ARGABN" indicates the number of abandons before the
called party answers. "BRGABN" and "ARGABN" are existing entities. The interface
for defining this entity is shown in Figure A-2. Obviously, the new entity has no
measure unit, and the display type is an integer.

A.3 Modifying Task Attributes

In the MML command line mode, the operations of modifying task attributes include
the following:
z Modify traffic task time (MOD TRFTM)
z Modify traffic task output entity (MOD TRFOENT)
z Modify traffic task sampling parameter (MOD TRFSMP)
z Modify traffic result output device (MOD TRFODA)
z Modify traffic result output mode (MOD TRFOTA)
z Set traffic task entity threshold (SET TRFTHD)
z Add traffic task measure object (ADD TRFMO)
z Activate traffic task (ACT TRFTSK)
z Deactivate traffic task (DEA TRFTSK)
z Set extremum task clear time (SET TRFTPTM)
Take “Modify traffic task output entity” (MOD TRFOENT) for example. The following is
an illustration for the operations of modifying traffic statistics attributes.

Select [Traffic statistics/Modify traffic statistics job/Modify Traffic Task Output Entity
(MOD TRFOENT)] in the navigation tree on the left of the interface shown in Figure
A-3, and the MOD TRFOENT command will appear in the [command input] on the

right bottom of the interface. Then click the icon , and the interface for inputting
some parameters will appear. The interface for inputting all parameters will not appear
until a specific measure unit is selected. Select an option in the [entity set] field, and
the selected entity will replace the original output entity. Select an option in the [entity
add] field, and the selected entity together with the original output entity will be output.
Select an option in the [entity del] field, and the selected entity cannot be output.
Moreover, the preceding three items or any two of them can be simultaneously
selected to jointly determine the output entities, but which is hard to understand and
tends to cause error, so it is recommended to use only one of them.

Figure A-3 Modifying output entities of a traffic statistics task

Note that the output entities of all tasks cannot be modified. For example, if the
“Multi_Condition_Object_Traffic” measure unit is selected, the output entity cannot be
modified. Generally, if no option of the output entity is set when a task is being created,
the output entity of this task is impossible to be modified.

A.4 Deleting a Traffic Statistics Task

In the MML command line mode, the operations of deleting a traffic statistics task
include the following:
z Deleting traffic task (DEL TRFTSK)
z Delete traffic task entity threshold (DEL TRFTHD)
z Delete traffic task measure object (RMV TRFMO)
z Delete custom entity (DEL CUSTENT)

A.5 Querying Traffic Statistics Tasks

In the MML command line mode, the operations of querying traffic statistics tasks
include the following:
z List traffic task information (LST TRFINF)
z List traffic result report (LST TRFRPT)

operations of querying a traffic statistics task.

Select [Traffic statistics/Query traffic statistic/List Traffic Result Report (LST TRFRPT)]
in the navigation tree on the left side of the window shown in Figure A-4, and the LST
TRFRPT command will appear in the [command input] box on the right bottom of the

interface. Click the icon , and the interface for inputting some of the parameters
will appear. Go on to specify the [time type] field, and the interface for typing the time
parameters will appear.

Figure A-4 Listing traffic statistics result report

[entity style]

It specifies the style that the report outputs entities, including ORG (original), EVL
(evolve), BRF (brief), and DTL (detailed).
z If it is set to "ORG", the report will output only the original entities rather than the
customized entities.
z If it is set to "EVL", the report will output the customized entities that are modified
from the original entities) in addition to the original entities.

A-6
Operation Manual - Traffic Measurement Volume
C&C08 Digital SPC Switching System Appendix A Operations in MML Command Line Mode

z If it is set to "BRF", the report will output the customized entities that are modified
not from the original entities in addition to the original entities.
z If it is set to "DTL", the report will output all entities, including the original entities
and customized entities.
[report type]

Generally, the traffic statistics task will output a result report for each object during
each period (if the “permanent periodical output” is selected when creating the task).
Especially when a task contains many objects or lasts for many periods, lots of result
reports will be produced, which will have little contents and are hard to view. Therefore,
these original output reports need to be combined according to a certain principle into
a few reports with rich contents to facilitate viewing. Such principle constitutes a report
type. It includes NML (normal), PRD (sum by period), OBJ (sym by object), and
PRDOBJ (sum by period and object). For example, a traffic statistics task has two
measurement objects and 10 measurement periods. It will produce 20 original output
reports.
z If it is set to “NML”, the original report will be finally displayed.
z If it is set to “PRD”, the reports of two measurement objects in the same period
will be combined, forming 10 final reports.
z If it is set to “OBJ”, the reports of the same object in different periods will be
combined, forming two final reports.
z If it is set to “PRDOBJ”, all reports will be combined, forming one final report.
[output device]

It refers to the destination to which the output result will be sent. It includes CWS
(current workstation), STATS (traffic statistics port) and NMP (NM port).

[time type]

It refers to the type of the time segment during which the results are to be viewed. It
includes SEG (segment) and CON (continuant). For example, view the traffic
statistics result from 10:30, December 12, 2001 to 10:30, December 13, 2001. The
time segment is CON. So set the [start date], [start time], [end date] and [end time] to
"2001&12&12", "10&30", "2001&12&13" and "10&30" respectively. In another
example, view the traffic statistics result between 8:30~10:30 of each day from
December 12, 2001, to December 13, 2001. The time segment is SEG. Set the [start
date], [start time], [end date] and [end time] to "2001&12&12", "08&30",
"2001&12&13" and "10&30" respectively.
