Monitoring the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone Remotely
Each Cisco Unified IP Phone has a web page from which you can view a variety of information about the phone, including:
•Home—Summary information about the phone
•Setup—Configurable settings for network profiles, USB port, and trace data
•Information—Network and device static information
•Statistics—Wireless LAN and IP network data
•Stream Statistics—Displays counters and statistics for the current call
•System—Configurable settings for trace logs, backup, phone upgrades, and web page password
You can use Setup pages and System pages to configure settings for the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G. For information about using these web pages, see Chapter 4, "Using the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G Web Pages."
This chapter describes the information that you can view from the phone's web page. You can use this information to remotely monitor the operation of a phone and to assist with troubleshooting.
You can also obtain much of this information directly from a phone. For more information, see Chapter 7, "Viewing Security, Device, Model, and Status Information on the Phone."
For more information about troubleshooting the Cisco Unified IP Phone, Chapter 9, "Troubleshooting the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G."

Accessing the Web Page for a Phone
To access the web page for a Cisco Unified IP Phone, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 Obtain the IP address of the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G using one of these methods:
•Search for the phone in Cisco Unified CallManager by choosing Devices > Phones. Phones registered with Cisco Unified CallManager display the IP address on the Find and List Phones web page and at the top of the Phone Configuration web page.
•On the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G, press Settings > Device Information> Network and then scroll to the IP Address option.
Step 2 Open a web browser and enter the following URL, where IP_address is the IP address of the Cisco Unified IP Phone:
https://<IP_address>
Note When the Security Alert dialog box displays a notice to accept the Trust Certificate, click Yes or Always to accept the application.
Step 3 Log in to the web pages with username: admin and enter the password: Cisco for the phone web pages.
The web pages for a Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G includes these items for monitoring the phone:

Voice Quality Metrics
|
MOS LQK
|
Score that is an objective estimate of the mean opinion score (MOS) for listening quality (LQK) that rates from 5 (excellent) to 1 (bad). This score is based on audible concealment events due to frame loss in the preceding 8-second interval of the voice stream. For more information, see the "Monitoring the Voice Quality of Calls" section on page 9-17
Note The MOS LQK score can vary based on the type of codec that the Cisco Unified IP Phone uses.
|
Avg MOS LQK
|
Average MOS LQK score observed for the entire voice stream
|
Min MOS LQK
|
Lowest MOS LQK score observed from start of the voice stream
|
Max MOS LQK
|
Baseline or highest MOS LQK score observed from start of the voice stream
These codecs provide the following maximum MOS LQK score under normal conditions with no frame loss:
•G.711 gives 4.5
•G.729 A /AB gives 3.7
|
MOS LQK Version
|
Version of the Cisco proprietary algorithm used to calculate MOS LQK scores
|
Cumulative Conceal Ratio
|
Total number of concealment frames divided by total number of speech frames received from start of the voice stream
|
Interval Conceal Ratio
|
Ratio of concealment frames to speech frames in preceding 3-second interval of active speech. If using voice activity detection (VAD), a longer interval might be required to accumulate 3 seconds of active speech
|
Max Conceal Ratio
|
Highest interval concealment ratio from start of the voice stream
|
Conceal Secs
|
Number of seconds that have concealment events (lost frames) from the start of the voice stream (includes severely concealed seconds)
|
Severely Conceal Secs
|
Number of seconds that have more than 5 percent concealment events (lost frames) from the start of the voice stream
