Can I see SIP Phones that do not respond to SNMP or SIP Queries during the discovery process?
You can identify SIP phones from the passive analysis of the SIP frames on the network, but you will need a system that also has the autoMap and autoVoIP tools to do this. The autoVoIP tool will be monitoring the phones as they register with their SIP servers and after autoMap has completed a discovery run but prior to the drawing production, the SIP devices tracked by the autoVoIP part of the Codima Toolbox are cross referenced with the ip addresses found during the discovery and subsequently displayed as phones or servers in the autoMap topology drawings Display showing Toolbox facilities associated with identification of SIP phones:- Note: To ensure the best discovery results when using the autoVoIP Consultancy Kit, do not start your autoMap discovery until the autoVoIP display has picked up phone names and phone descriptions. This approach will ensure that as much information as possible is available for inclusion in the autoMap and autoAsset displays.
