Table 90 Over Allotment of Bandwidth Example

BANDWIDTH CLASSES, ALLOTMENTS

PRIORITIES

 

 

 

Root Class: 1500 kbps (same

as Speed setting)

 

 

NetMeeting traffic (Service = H.323): 500 kbps

High

 

 

 

 

 

FTP (Service = FTP): 500 Kbps

Medium

 

 

 

If you use VoIP and NetMeeting at the same time, the device allocates up to 500 Kbps of bandwidth to each of them before it allocates any bandwidth to FTP. As a result, FTP can only use bandwidth when VoIP and NetMeeting do not use all of their allocated bandwidth.

Suppose you try to browse the web too. In this case, VoIP, NetMeeting and FTP all have higher priority, so they get to use the bandwidth first. You can only browse the web when VoIP, NetMeeting, and FTP do not use all 1000 Kbps of available bandwidth.
