Introduction Support Level 2

The level 2 support is the first instance where the user's telephony problems are handeled that a user cannot solve himself. Additionally the level 2 supporter must be able to detect if the user problem is a "single" problem or if there is a large scale problem, that produces the same problem for multiple customers, e.g. data transfer problems in the Internet so that no VoIP call signaling is possible.


The level 2 supporter must be aware of the complexity of a VoIP system and the multitude of telephony solutions on the user side. Furhter he needs an understandig of:

  • IP networking
  • VoIP protocols SIP for signaling, SDP and RTP for speech transmission.


Overview of a VoIP system and the multitude of user telephony solutions:

Overview of a VoIP system and the multitude of user telephony solutions



The level 2 supporter faces problems with the following layers:

  1. Equipment
  2. IP data transfer
  3. Telephony service

And each of this layer can be located into the following raw areas:

  1. Customer/User site
  2. Internet Service Provider ISP
  3. Telephony Provider

This layer and dividing into areas produces a "3x3 Support Matrix":

3x3 Support Matrix with notes



Within this "3x3 Support Matrix" the supporter can:

  • advice the customer what to do when the problem is located in the nodes 1-T, 1-D and 1-E
  • check the customer configurations on the VoIP Switch, node 3-T, and, if he has operator rights, adjust configurations.

For the other cases the level 2 supporter must be able to identifiy if:

  • the user must contact his ISP, due to possible Internet access problems
  • the VoIP System administrator must be involved, due to possible telephony service problems

These cases indicate mostly large scale problems!
