|-
|

Date and Time
|

|

Date and time when the voice meeting began.
|-
|

Elapsed
|

Amount of time that the voice meeting has been active.
|-
|

Max Active Chn
|

Total number of active channels (callers) connected to the audio mixer since the voice meeting began.
|-
|

Active Chn
|

Number of channels (callers) currently connected to the audio mixer for this meeting.
|-
|

Join/Depart Conf
|

|

Number of times the video mixer requested and detected intra-frames. Also the number of timed-out intra-frame requests.

Intra-frames (or I-frames) are frames that carry the complete picture of a participant's video image. I-frames are sent periodically in a video stream and whenever a video speaker switch occurs.

When the active speaker changes, the system requests an I-frame and then waits to receive an I-frame from the new active speaker before switching the video stream. Until an I-frame is received or the active speaker changes again, the system sends FVU requests to the new active speaker every two seconds.
|-
|

|-
|

For information about the jitter buffer, see [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Media Parameters#Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)|Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)]].
|-
|

Play Delay
|

Current delay, in milliseconds, between the time a play request is received and the time the buffer starts playing out the data for this meeting. For information about the jitter buffer, see [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Media Parameters#Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)|Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)]].
|-
|

Max Record Delay
|

Maximum delay during this meeting, in milliseconds, between the time a file recording was requested and the time the recording began.
|-
|

Record Delay
|

Current delay, in milliseconds, between the time a file recording is requested and the time the recording begins.

== Output Fields of the Media Statistics Reports Page: Channel Statistics Report ==

'''Note: ''' The fields that display only video information do not appear in report output if no video calls are received by Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express.

===== Table: Channel Statistics Report Output Fields =====

{| border = 1
|-
!Field Name
!Description
|-
|

Total Active Channels
|

Number of channels that are currently active.
|-
|

Channel Record Last Updated
|

Date and time that the channel record was last refreshed, which occurs automatically and frequently.
|-
|

Chn ID
|

Channel identification assigned to the caller.
|-
|

Conf ID
|

Unique number used by the local audio mixer to identify the voice meeting. This value is different from the meeting ID displayed to end users.
|-
|

Start Time
|

Date and time that the call was established.
|-
|

Elapsed
|

Amount of time that the call has been active.
|-
|

Audio Pkts Rcv/Sent/Lost
|

Number of audio RTP packets received from and sent to the endpoint and the number of lost packets.
|-
|

Video Pkts Rcv/Sent
|

Number of video RTP packets received from and sent to the endpoint.
|-
|

Audio KBytes Rcv/Sent
|

Amount of audio RTP data, in kilobytes, received from and sent to the endpoint.
|-
|

Video KBytes Rcv/Sent
|

Amount of video RTP data, in kilobytes, received from and sent to the endpoint.
|-
|

Out of Order Video Pkts
|

Number of video RTP packets that were received out of sequence from the endpoint.
|-
|

FVU / Flow Cntl Requests
|

Number of fast video update requests and flow-control requests received from the endpoint.
|-
|

I frame Req / Detected
|

Number of I-frames requested and detected. I-frames are frames that carry the complete picture of a participant's video image. I-frames are sent periodically in a video stream and whenever a video speaker switch occurs.

When the active speaker changes, the system requests an I-frame and then waits to receive an I-frame from the new active speaker before switching the video stream. Until an I-frame is received or the active speaker changes again, the system sends FVU requests to the new active speaker every two seconds.

Under normal conditions, the requested and detected values should be the same. If these counts do not match, then check the video endpoints for errors.

Also, endpoints that have difficulty decoding video may request additional I-frames. Therefore, endpoints that have a higher I-frame count than others in a conference should be examined for network issues.
|-
|

Flush Rate
|

Average number of flushed packets per second. A flushed packet is one that arrived too late for the audio mixer to play in the correct sequence order and is thus thrown away.

'''Note: ''' The value of this field and the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Media Statistics Reports#Insert Rate|Insert Rate]] field should be equal.
|-
|

Insert Rate
|

Average number of PLC packets per second that are locally generated by the audio mixer and inserted in place of packets that did not arrive in time to play out in the correct sequence order. Without PLC packets, callers would hear clicks and pops due to missing packets.

'''Note: ''' The value of this field and the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Media Statistics Reports#Flush Rate|Flush Rate]] field should be equal.
|-
|

Silence Pkt Rate
|

Average number of RTP packets per second that are not received, not sent, or are SID packets.

Using VAD saves bandwidth by sending RTP packets over the network only when the audio reaches a certain level, such as when a caller talks. When the caller stops talking, a SID packet is sent to notify the audio mixer that a subsequent gap in RTP packets is caused by silence on the call, as opposed to serious network delay. If the last packet in a stream of RTP packets is a SID, then the audio mixer knows not to count the subsequent gap as jitter and to locally generate and play comfort noise to fill the gap.
|-
|

Audio Pkt Size
|

Size of audio RTP packets, in bytes. 160-byte packets correspond to a 20 ms packetization period.
|-
|

Max Jitter
|

Maximum jitter detected in incoming audio packets from the endpoint.
|-
|

Avg Jitter
|

Average jitter value observed for packets arriving from the endpoint.
|-
|

Pkt Delay
|

Delay, in milliseconds, between the current packet being played and the last received packet. Also called buffer depth.
|-
|

Digits Rcvd
|

Number of digits received from the endpoint.
|-
|

Digits Sent
|

Number of digits sent to the endpoint.
|-
|

Max Play Delay
|

Maximum delay, in milliseconds, between the time a play request was received and the time the buffer started playing out the data. For information about the jitter buffer, see [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Media Parameters#Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)|Maximum jitter buffer (milliseconds)]].
|-
|

Play Delay
|

Current delay, in milliseconds, between the time a play request is received and the time the buffer starts playing out the data.
|-
|

Max Record Delay
|

Maximum delay, in milliseconds, between the time a file recording was requested and the time the recording began.
|-
|

Record Delay
|

Current delay, in milliseconds, between the time a file recording is requested and the time the recording begins.
