5 Services

The Services page displays a map of the services that you connected through the Oracle® Intelligent Communications Orchestration Network . The connections include SIP trunks to PSTN carriers, on-premises devices, UCaaS and CCaaS providers, and voice gateways.

Services Page Display and Operations

In the Oracle® Intelligent Communications Orchestration Network , you configure Services as logical objects that connect carriers to the voice, video, and media streaming services you use. The Services page provides tools to configure and manage SIP Trunk connections.

The Services page initially displays no information because there are no SIP Trunk Services configured. As you configure SIP Trunk Services, the page builds and displays a map of your services with a table listing attributes for each one. The following screen capture shows an example of the Services map with carriers on the left and media services on the right. The map will show all your connections, but you may have to move it with your mouse to see them all when there are many. The Services page displays the menu icon at the top-left and the Add Service button at the top-right.

This screen capture shows the Settings page. The top portion displays a map of services connect through ICON to sites. The bottom portion lists your services by name, profile, group, sites, numbers, status, and date added.

SIP Trunk Services Table Columns

Service Name—The name you created for the service.

Profile—The communication type profile you selected for the service. For example, Carrier Service, and Generic SIP Service.

    Note:

    All times and dates in the Usage and Statistics section reference Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The system does not currently support local times.

Visualize SIP Trunk Activity

When valid call data exists for the chosen time period:
  • Charts and graphs display summary values for inbound and outbound calls such as Peak Calls, Total Calls, and Average Call Volume.
  • A bar graph shows daily totals for the selected metric. Hover over a bar to view details for inbound and outbound calls on a specific date.
  • Legend keys let you filter the graph to show only inbound or outbound calls, or both. Deselect both to hide data.
  • When you select Call Minutes, the charts and graphs update show metrics for duration instead of volume.
  • When you choose Concurrent Calls, a dotted line on the graph displays the channel limit. Hovering over the graph shows maximum simultaneous call counts.

For Call Volume and Call Minutes, an additional line graph at the bottom of the section illustrates average usage over the past 12 weeks. Tiles display the Peak Trunk Utilization and Trunk Channel Limit. You can filter results further by inbound or outbound direction. Hover over the blue section of a bar graph to see Inbound Calls and over the brown section to see Outbound Calls. You can toggle the legends below the graph on an off to focus on Inbound or Outbound.

When no call data is available for the selected period, the system displays the following message: No calls have been processed during the selected time period.

Note:

These graphs are not available for Voice Gateways.
