VoIP device test system and test method

Abstract

An MAC address of each device (8a to 8c) under test is entered. An IP address is assigned to each entered MAC address. The IP addresses and telephone numbers assigned to the devices (8a to 8c) and a failure test terminal (17) are associated with one another and registered in a system server (4). Out of telephones (10a to 10c) connected to the devices (8a to 8c), sets of two telephones are determined. For each set, a call is made from a first telephone connected to the device to a second telephone connected to another device. When the communication is established, a call is made from the called second telephone to the first telephone. If the communication is not established, communication with a telephone (10d) connected to the failure test terminal (17) is tried. With this, adequate test on a large number of devices with simple operation is possible in performing an operation test on a VoIP device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a VoIP device test system and test method for performing an operation test of a plurality of VoIP devices. The VoIP device converts voice signals into packet data, transmits and receives them, and communicates through an IP network. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of IP networks such as the Internet and the development of communication equipment, it has become possible to send and receive large-capacity data and data processing, and so-called Internet telephony, which converts voice into IP packets and conducts calls through the Internet, has become common. [0003] The Internet telephony is realized by using a TCP / IP network called VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) to send and receive voice data; and when providing the VoIP service, users are often asked to rent a CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) such as a modem. . The equipment involved in this lease needs to perform its operati...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the technique disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, there is a problem that the performance of the modem can be roughly calculated from the throughput, etc., and even if the performance of the entire network that has been constructed can be measured, it is still difficult to individually measure the performance of each device. test

[0006] In particular, when repairing equipment for rental as described above, it is necessary to perform various tests on a large number of tested machines, so there is a problem of complicated operation and lack of practicality.

In addition, the above-mentioned VoIP device has the following problems: in order to confirm the sound quality, etc., it is necessary to actually make a call by a person, and the operation is very complicated, and it is impossible to perform a quick test operation.
