  • Comment: Unfortunately this needs more work on it. There are only 2 sources, one of which is back to the providing company, the other is effectively self-published. Neither are independent and neither demonstrate notability. So some more work is needed here first. See WP:GNG and the notability panels on the right side.

    VoIPmonitor is a Voice over IP (VoIP) monitoring application for Linux. It captures VoIP signalling and media traffic (including SIP and RTP) and calculates call-quality metrics such as packet loss, packet delay variation (jitter) and estimated MOS values based on the ITU-T G.107 E-model.[1][2]

    VoIPmonitor is typically deployed as a passive sensor that monitors traffic on a network interface or mirrored port and stores per-call statistics for later analysis.[1] The software is distributed as an open-source packet sniffer with an additional commercial web interface.[1][3]

    Reception

    [edit | edit source]

    Gartner listed VoIPmonitor as a representative vendor in its 2016 Market Guide for Unified Communications Monitoring under "UC In-Depth and Packet-Level Monitoring".[4]

    Functionality

    [edit | edit source]

    Academic work has used VoIPmonitor to collect packet loss, packet delay variation and MOS measurements during VoIP experiments and evaluations.[1][2]

    Use in research

    [edit | edit source]

    VoIPmonitor has been used as a measurement tool in academic work, including:

    • a University of Cape Town master's thesis evaluating service quality in virtualised environments;[1]
    • a peer-reviewed paper comparing VoIP quality metrics exported via IPFIX to results from other tools, including VoIPmonitor;[2]
    • a 2015 journal article that used VoIPmonitor in experiments on bandwidth and concurrent call capacity of a VoIP infrastructure.[5]
    • a Brno University of Technology bachelor’s thesis that describes VoIPmonitor as a comparative tool when evaluating call-quality analyzers.[6]

    Security

    [edit | edit source]

    In 2022, multiple critical vulnerabilities affecting the VoIPmonitor web interface were publicly reported, including an issue tracked as CVE-2022-24260.[3][7]
