Application switching

Application switching

Application switching, diagramed in figure B-4,also is capable of changing bandwidth used, but the change is determined entirely by the type of application being requested ignoring load requirements.

Figure B-4Application switching diagram

In a system configured for application switching, the remote site modem/router looks for a packet in the data stream coming from the LAN that is configured using the H.323 stack protocol and contains an H.225 signaling protocol. In the illustration shown in Figure B-4the signal is a call initiated at the remote site.

The packet is then examined to determine the port number then, from the allo- cated port ranges, determines the type of application being sent.

The modem/router sends a switch request to the VMS requesting a carrier for the application type. Typical applications include:

Voice over IP (VoIP)
