Hello all;

A customer has the following requirements.
he has a location with 20 phones assigned to it, they have a bandwidth which enables them to make only 5 calls at a time. he wants to reserve bandwidth out of the 5 calls bandwidth for a certain user that nobody else can use. is it possible with CM ver 4.1(3)

Thanks and Best Regards

Best choice for that is going to be to configure MLPP or to use a
network based approach (i.e.; tag that phones traffic with a different
DSCP, etc. value) and police traffic at the router level.

Or possibly just create another location - for the "main" location enter
enough bandwidth for 4 calls, and for the "special" location that the
single phone lives in, put enough bandwidth for 1 call. May not be the
most efficient way of doing things, but it would work I guess.

I think that you're actually talking about two different things:

1) Location-based CAC (Call Admission Control). We use this because we
have a centralized Unity system with remote offices. We set location
bandwidth (so you would do 5 calls times the bandwidth per call). The
sixth call would then invoke AAR and could be routed via PSTN.
2) MLPP (Multi-level Precedence and Preemption). Your "special user"
could have a code which would make their call a priority call and would
then cause one of the other calls to terminate if there weren't enough
resources.

So, a combination of those two should allow you to achieve what you want.

yes I think ot this but a problem pop up to me. what if the phone (special one) wants to make a conference with the internal 20 phones (which should not be restricted), he will not be able to do so. i guess all the phones have to be in single location but I dont know how to dedicate a bandwidth for a certain phone. (using DSCP is not applicable for me at all because it is a very huge switching network and the locations to diff. differenate customers from each other) it is a Service Provider solution.

thank you all for ut fast replies. I know location based MLPP would do it for me but still that is not the requirement the customer doesnot want to drop running calls just he want to assign a certain bandwidth to that special user and nobody else can use it. ther is no PSTN connections that I can use AAR with it.

In any case, in order for them to do 20 conference calls at the local
site, you would need hardware conference resources at that location.
With them local, the locations would not count if the devices are in the
same location.

so they all have to be in one location, ok for MLPP cannot it be just less " aggressive" for example can it give the call that will be cleared a timer say 1 min or so that his/her call will be cleared due to a high priority call is asking for the bandwidth??

No, it's not graceful by any means. As soon as the 1 user dials out,
one of the other connections is dropped immediately.
