What This Category Covers
VoIP tickets should separate registration, signaling, audio path, NAT/firewall, carrier routing, queue logic, and device/app behavior. A connected call with one-way audio is a different problem than failed registration or queue routing.
First Layer to Isolate
Registration versus signaling versus media/audio path versus queue/carrier logic.
Useful Tools, Logs, and Portals
- PBX/call logs
- Firewall/NAT logs
- SIP registration state
- Call detail records
- Carrier portal
- Handset/softphone logs
Before You Escalate
- Call time, caller/callee, extension, site, and device captured
- User/handset/location scope tested
- Registration and audio path separated
- Firewall/carrier evidence collected
