Development
DPI Packet overflow issue
– Excessive packets being sent to DPI raising IIC alarms (packet
drops and overflows)
– Overloading G10 probes and yet not yielding any results
– Involved a 3rd party vendor component
Resolution
– Initial investigation and 3rd party vendor clarifications
– Resolved the issue by identifying a version mismatch
– Initiated and completed an enhancement request
• Limit maximum packets sent to DPI to 20
• Check and print version number and packet limit as an option

Editor's Notes

  • #6 Working with 3rd party vendors is important It could be a model of the future
  • #7 Objective is for employees to understand what is happening in a call flow – especially when they have to explain to customers – they need to know first about how exactly it works
  • #10 Team members of sustaining and QE were extremely helpful despite overloaded Help on test calls,
