Re: QoS on Office Communicator

dsiegel's picture

I'm no expert in the language of Windows Registry, but the information you dug up seems to indicate that it is not possible to set a range of ports for audio that is independent from the range of ports for video. Therefore you can't build a standard ACL on the router to set the ToS bits that would work any time you established a video call over communicator, because the udp ports for both video and audio would be randomly assigned across whatever range you specified.

Yeah, you could do it manually on a one-time basis if, as you point out, you can identify the voice rtp session (and udp port) separate from the video rtp session.

In summary, it's not looking good.
