by Gary Audin “When it comes to root-cause troubleshooting, the more information you have about your network the faster you will be able to determine the exact cause of the problem. Whether you are dealing with VoIP quality issues or other network performance issues, the data always points you in the right direction. The key is to deliver it in an easy, fast, and meaningful way.” This is the opinion of Tim Titus, CTO of PathSolutions www.pathsolutions.com as recorded in this podcast from the International Avaya User Group conference. Tim covers the steps for successful network troubleshooting and adds advice and guidance to avoid mistakes. He points out the problems encountered when there is not enough information to truly fix the problem and avoid its re-occurrence.
