How to request a production load test

NOTE: Steps do not guarantee the test will be approved. 

1. Requests must be submitted a minimum of 2 weeks in advance.
2. Complete the GenCloud Testing Form.
3. Open a case with Product Support and provide the completed GenCloud Testing Form.

Genesys Cloud is a premiere platform for your telephony needs. To ensure that we can provide the best network connectivity worldwide, we have partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS). Because of AWS’s worldwide reach, network connectivity between your Local Area Network (LAN) and Genesys Cloud should be fast and trouble free. 

However, there can occasionally be a glitch in that connectivity path that results in network latency, which impacts call quality. Based on our troubleshooting experience, we have discovered that the majority of those glitches are located on the customer’s LAN. The glitch could be caused by an overloaded workstation running with the minimum system requirements for Genesys Cloud or it could be the result of an improperly configured firewall.

To help you diagnose those glitches on your LAN, you can use the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment. You can get this tool by opening a support case. For more information, see My Support Portal.

In this article, you’ll find detailed instructions on how to run and interpret the results provided by the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment tool.

If you have questions, see the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment FAQ.

What is the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment?

The first thing that you must understand about the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment is that it is designed to provide a moment in time snapshot of your LAN. As such, we recommend that you run it multiple times and on multiple systems in order to gain an accurate assessment of your LAN’s performance.

The results generated by the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment can vary significantly based upon when you run the tool and the network load at that time. If there are large variances in your network’s load, then you should run it when you believe that your network is busiest to ensure that the results indicate what you would consider acceptable performance for your planned load.

With that in mind, the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment looks at the network performance (bandwidth, jitter, latency) as well as the connectivity (firewall settings) and help you to understand potential issues.

Run the tool

We recommend that you run the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment on various computers on your network and various times throughout a normal work day. 

Run the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment

1. Click the link in the email that you receive from Genesys.
2. If prompted, download and run the BCS client.
   • NOTE: The BCS client is a client side application that enables accurate VoIP, SIP, Route testing from within a browser.
3. Select the correct AWS region.
4. Enter your organization name.
5. Click Start the Test. (As the test runs, you’ll see a progress animation.)
6. When the test is complete, you can look over the results using the information in the Understanding the results section below as a guide.
7. To save the results to a file, click Download Results.
8. The results file will appear as a .TXT file in your browser’s status bar. For more information, see the Compiling the Results section below.

Understanding the results

When you run the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment, you’ll see the results displayed in two columns titled VOIP and Firewall. 

VOIP

The VOIP column on the left side displays the results of your overall network performance. Proper network performance is critical for voice calls, internal video calls, co-browsing, etc. 

NOTE: To be able to understand the VOIP metric descriptions, you need to have a basic understanding of what a network packet is. When data is sent over a network, it is divided up into multiple small units called packets. Along with the data, each packet contains control information that essentially identifies the data. More specifically, control information provides the source and destination network addresses, sequencing details, and error detection. The source and destination network addresses are self-explanatory. The sequencing details are instructions on how the packets should be reassembled and the error detection identifies corruption in the packets. There are many other very technical pieces that make up a packet’s control information, but as far as the Genesys Cloud Network Assessment goes, these are the three main pieces of information that you need to understand.

Measurement	Expectation	Description
Up/Down Jitter	The up and down jitter metric should be less than 30ms. If you see jitter metrics that are consistently higher than 30ms, then you need to take a closer look at the amount and type of traffic on your network.	Jitter is a variation between the time when packets are sent and when they are received. When sending, packets are evenly spaced and flow in a continuous stream. Due to network traffic, the packets can become unevenly spaced and the flow can be inconsistent. The receiving end compensates for this by buffering the packets and then passing them on in an evenly spaced continuous stream.
Up/Down Packet Loss	The up and down packet loss metric should be less than 1%.	When packets fail to reach the destination due to heavy network traffic or total corruption, the network must resend the data. This impacts overall network performance
Packet Discards	The packet discards metric should be less than 5%.	When the jitter buffer exceeds is limits, the buffer discards any additional packets.
Packet Order	The packet order metric should be 98+%.	When packets travel over a network, they may take different routes and therefore arrive in a different order than they were sent. This can be compensated by jitter buffers as long as the packets arrive quickly enough to be re-sequenced and do not have to be discarded.
Round Trip Average Time	The round trip average time metric should be below 150ms.	The round trip average time measures the latency between the selected Genesys Cloud AWS region and your location.
Up/Downstream MOS Score	The MOS score metric should be 3.6 or higher.	The MOS scores provide a range between poor and excellent voice quality. The MOS score is based on all the network performance measurements and will  incrementally decrease as the other other measurements deviate from the recommended values.

Firewall

The Firewall column on the right provides a simple Pass/Fail test on your firewall. All of the ports listed in this column must be open on your firewall in order for Genesys Cloud and your network to communicate properly.

All ports, with the exception of Port 53 and Port 19302, should be marked with a green check and be identified as passed.

NOTE

• Port 53 is used by DNS and is usually flagged with a red x and identified as failed. This is common and nothing to worry about.
• Port 19302 is used by STUN and is optional and may be flagged with a red x and identified as failed. If you are not using STUN, then this is nothing to worry about.

If any of the ports, other than 53 or 19302, are flagged with a red x and identified as failed, you will need to open those ports on your firewall. For more information, see:

• About ports and services for your firewall
• Ports and services for WebRTC

Compiling the results

After you run the Genesys Cloud Network Readiness Assessment and download the results, you’ll want to add the results in an Excel spreadsheet You’ll want to do so for each computer on which you run the tool. (If there are multiple issues, having all the data in a spreadsheet will help Genesys Cloud Customer Care more efficiently troubleshoot the problem.) You can download an Excel spreadsheet template here. 

NOTE: The spreadsheet template contains sample entries so you can see how to compile your data.

1. When assessment results appear in your browser’s status bar, open the .TXT file.
2. Press CTRL-A to select all the results data in the file.
3. Press CTRL-C to copy the data to the clipboard.
4. Access the Excel spreadsheet template.
5. Press CTRL-V to paste the results data in the spreadsheet.

2. To accept the request, click Yes, I authorize access.
3. Select the appropriate role for the user or group.
   • NOTE: All members in the group receive the role and the associated permissions.

NOTE

• The roles you assign here determine how the user or group can work in your organization. 
• Assign only the roles that you are comfortable providing to the other organization. In the typical customer-to-partner scenario, it is common for the customer to assign the Master Admin role or the Admin role to their partner’s users or groups. Other roles may be necessary when working with Customer Care.

The following outlines the best practice guidelines for Activating an Org as a Partner on behalf of your customer.

Once your Genesys Cloud order gets booked, we strongly recommend activating the org as soon as possible to begin your configuration and start your build.

Prerequisites: See Roles and permissions for pairing organizations and Roles and permissions for authorized users and groups.

After you approve a pairing request, you must authorize users and groups to work in your organization. To authorize users and groups, assign them the roles their work requires.

NOTE:When granting system access to another user or group (“permitted user”), be aware that you are responsible for how the permitted user uses your system. Genesys is not responsible for any misuse of data, change to configuration, etc.

When an administrator sends you a pairing link, the administrator can request authorization for multiple users and groups. Later, the administrator can request authorization for other users and groups as well. The maximum number of users that can access another organization is 25.

1. Click Admin.
2. Under People and Permissions, click Authorized Organizations.
3. Click Access To My Organization. 
4. Click the name of the paired organization.
5. Click the user’s or group’s name.
6. Under Roles, search for and select the roles for the user or group.

NOTE

• The default Master Admin role has all the permissions that are necessary for a user or group to administer your organization. When you seek assistance, Customer Care may require other permissions and roles.
• The permissions that a role contains are what enables a user to perform an action. Because you can modify existing roles, it is important to be sure that a role has the permission(s) required to perform a specified action.
• Until an administrator assigns one or more roles to a user or group, the user or group cannot work in the organization.
• When an administrator selects a role for a user or group, that user or group receives access immediately.

Auth Orgs is Care's implementation of a Genesys Cloud feature called Authorized Organizations. ​

Care combines the Authorized Organizations feature with OneLogin and Genesys Cloud Orgs in each AWS region to create the Auth Orgs system. Through this system Care can perform tasks inside a customer's org in a way that the customer controls, using the same roles used to manage their internal users. With authorized organizations, you can establish a secure relationship with another Genesys Cloud organization. This relationship allows permitted users and groups from one organization to log in to another organization.

Manage the pairing between two Genesys Cloud organizations

Learn how two organizations become paired. Create and send a pairing ID to an organization you want to pair with. If you receive a pairing request, understand what it means to accept it. Remove access or delete a pairing if necessary.

• Understand the pairing process
• Roles and permissions for pairing organizations
• Create and send a pairing request to an authorized organization

• See the organizations you can access

Support Users and Cloned Users

Once pairing is completed, Care will access a customer’s Org in one of two ways:

• Via a Support Org User​
• Via a Cloned User​

Access granted to these users is controlled by the role(s) the customer assigns to the pairing link. ​Actions taken by Care using either a Support Org User or Cloned User are audited as the first & last name of the engineer taking the action.​ Support Org Users are for tasks such as checking configurations, running reports, or reviewing specific interactions.​ Cloned Users are for agent tasks such as placing/receiving calls or ACD interactions or using Genesys Cloud chat features. 

Auth Orgs customers can control​:

• When Care can access their Org​
• The permissions Care has when accessing their Org

Disable access entirely

1. Go to Admin > Authorized Organizations > Access To My Organization.
2. Toggle Access to Off.
   

Limit access

1. Go to Admin > Authorized Organizations > Access to My Organization > [Support Org Name].
2. In the Groups tab, add or remove roles in the Role(s) section as desired.
   

The pairing process authorizes users and groups from one Genesys Cloud organization to work in another Genesys Cloud organization.

Examples

• A Genesys partner can assist a client in configuring, managing, or troubleshooting Genesys Cloud.
• A manager from a parent company can log in to a subsidiary organization to view usage reports.
• An application developer or an independent consultant can log in to a client organization to assist with customizations.

Notes

• Any organization can generate or receive pairing requests.
• You can pair with any other organization in your region.
• An organization can have multiple paired relationships, although each pairing can involve only two organizations. For example, a partner can have a separate paired relationship with each of its client organizations.

Process

1. Your organization generates a pairing request and sends it to the other organization
2. The other organization approves the pairing request and grants the appropriate permissions to users from your organization
3. Your organization, if necessary, promotes additional users to work in your organization
4. The other organization, as appropriate, approves the additional users from your organization to work in the other organization
5. Users from your organization log in to the other organization and perform requested work

When two organizations pair, the administrator of the organization providing the users or groups to complete the work requests authorization for them. The administrator of the organization in which the work will be performed assigns the roles for those users or groups.

Later, the same process of requesting and authorizing users and groups can occur if additional authorized users are needed. The maximum number of authorized users and groups that can access another organization is 25.

Note: When granting system access to another user or group (“permitted user”), be aware that you are responsible for how the permitted user uses your system. Genesys is not responsible for any misuse of data, change to configuration, etc.

To see who is in a trust, you must be a member of its trusted group

Genesys Cloud’s Authenticated Organizations feature establishes a circle of trust between organizations. This circle of trust permits a user who authenticated with their home organization to access an external organization for which they do not have a user account. To view the names of other users in the trust, or the names of groups authorized by the trust, a user must be a member of the trusted group.

Notes:

• A user must be a member of the trusted group to do the following:
  • View details about the trust and its members.
  • Access the external organization.
• An untrusted user sees an empty list of users and groups in the trust along with a message about missing permissions.
• If you are not a member of the trusted group, Genesys Cloud does not reveal its name to you.
• To have yourself added to the group authorizing the trust, contact your Genesys Cloud administrator.

Prerequisites: See Roles and permissions for pairing organizations and Roles and permissions for authorized users and groups.

To assist another organization with testing or troubleshooting, you can clone a user within trust. The cloned user inherits all permissions granted from the trusting organization. You can have up to five cloned users in an organization. 

Once cloned, the trusting organization is able to manage the user like any other user within the organization. 

Note: When granting system access to another user or group (“permitted user”), be aware that you are responsible for how the permitted user uses your system. Genesys is not responsible for any misuse of data, change to configuration, etc.

To be cloned, a user must be trusted as a named user or part of a trusted group through a pairing request. For more information, see Create and send a pairing request to an authorized organization.
