Managing Video on Your Network
Issue 3 January 2008 11
Example 2
In this example, your network has unlimited bandwidth. Since all of your users can get as much
bandwidth as they need, there is no need to specify priority users. There is only one pool of
bandwidth to be shared by audio and multimedia calls. Audio will come from the normal video
pool. Figure 2
shows how you would configure the bandwidth for this example.
Example 3
In this example, you have bandwidth for video only, and you want to reserve some bandwidth
for the CEO. All voice calls will be routed another way. You want to reserve half of your
bandwidth (1.5 Mb) for priority users. If priority users need more than 50% of the bandwidth,
they will be able to use the available bandwidth from the normal video pool. Audio will come
from the normal video pool. Figure 3
shows how you would configure the bandwidth for this
example.
