Which command shows DSP usage?

Which command shows DSP usage?

• A. show voice dsp
• B. show voice dsp summary
• C. show dsp resources
• D. display voice processor status

Answer: (A)

Understanding DSP usage means knowing how hardware DSP resources are allocated to voice processing tasks like transcoding, conferencing, and other DSP-intensive functions, and whether enough resources are available for current and future calls. The command show voice dsp provides a real-time, per-DSP view: it shows each DSP’s status (Idle or Busy), what process is using it (for example transcoding or mixing), and how many channels are currently active on that DSP. With this detail, you can quickly see overall capacity, identify bottlenecks, and plan for capacity or troubleshoot issues where calls fail or are degraded because DSPs are fully utilized. This is the best choice because it delivers the actual usage data for each DSP, not just a high-level summary. The alternative that offers a summary only doesn’t reveal per-DSP occupancy or which processes are consuming DSP resources. The other commands either don’t pertain to DSP usage in this context or provide status information that isn’t focused on DSP resource utilization.
