Background Noise Suppression

Background noise suppression (BNS) is designed primarily for hands-free

operation and reduces background noise to enhance communication in noisy

environments.
There are no related configuration changes.

Comfort Noise Fill

Comfort noise fill is designed to help provide a consistent noise level to the

remote user of a hands-free call. Fluctuations in perceived background noise

levels are an undesirable side effect of the non-linear component of most AEC

systems. This feature uses noise synthesis techniques to smooth out the noise

level in the direction toward the remote user, providing a more natural call

experience.
There are no related configuration changes.

Automatic Gain Control

Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is applicable to hands-free operation and is

used to boost the transmit gain of the local talker in certain circumstances. This

increases the effective user-phone radius and helps with the intelligibility of

soft-talkers.
There are no related configuration changes.

IP Type-of-Service

The “type of service” field in an IP packet header consists of four
type-of-service (TOS) bits and a 3-bit precedence field. Each TOS bit can be set

to either 0 or 1. The precedence field can be set to a value from 0 through 7. The

type of service can be configured specifically for RTP packets and call control

packets, such as SIP signaling packets.
Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server or locally:
