Re: Signaling MIB - Draft 3 - Last Call - pktcSigDevCodecTable (Issue1)

Another advantage of having multiple indexing in the pktcSigDevCodecTable
(i.e. being able to obtain all possible codec combinations from the MTA), is
the added value when you are debugging/troubleshooting.

Suppose you find out that an MTA refuses to create a given connection and
you want to know why. The response code in the NCS error response, and the
optional comment string, are not always very clear on the exact reason for
the failure. In this case, you can maybe use the pktcSigDevCodecTable for
troubleshooting. Having the full list of codec combinations available can be
interesting here.

In contrast, the current definition provides very little extra information
above having just a list of supported codecs. Will the maximum number of
codec sessions as it is defined now not always equal the number of ports the
MTA has?
