VoIP Monitor Service at Main and Remote Sites
When you locate the requestors and providers, you can determine where the bandwidth will be required
for the silent monitoring feature. The following notes regarding bandwidth apply to

Although an administrator is able to assign a specific VoIP service to an agent device, the Recording
service that is used when calls are recorded is determined at the time the request is made. The same
rule applies if two Recording services are installed in order to load-balance the installation. In some
cases, the provider and requestor may be separated by a WAN and would require the bandwidth on
the WAN. If a second Recording and Playback service is to be installed, Cisco recommends that you
install it on a server at the main office (on the LAN with the CAD base services).

If the VoIP provider is a VoIP Monitor service, the requestor is a Recording service, and these
services reside on the same machine, then there is no additional bandwidth used on the network to
record the call.
services reside on the same machine, then there is no additional bandwidth used on the network to
record the call.
Regardless of who is the requestor and VoIP provider, the bandwidth requirement between these two
points is the bandwidth of the IP call being monitored and/or recorded. For purposes of calculating total
bandwidth, you can think of each monitoring/recording session as being a new phone call. Therefore, to
calculate bandwidth to support the Silent Monitoring feature, you can use the same calculations used to
provision the network to handle call traffic, with the exception that the voice stream provided by the
VoIP provider consists of two streams in the same direction. Whereas a normal IP phone call will have
one stream going to the phone and one stream coming from the phone, the VoIP provider will have both
streams coming from the provider. Keep this difference in mind when provisioning upload and download
speeds for your WANs.
