Procedure 8
Configure VCS default bandwidth
Cisco VCS uses the concept of pipes and links to control the bandwidth
between locations. The bandwidth settings for calls within a single subzone
are controlled by the default call settings configured in the endpoints.

are controlled by the default call settings configured in the endpoints.
The VCS bandwidth configuration page allows you to define
a default call bandwidth for endpoints that do not specify an
amount in their call signaling.

, enter
the following values, and then click

Creating Pipes and Links
1. Create pipes
2. Create links
Process
Pipes and links allow you to manage the number of video calls placed over
your WAN. They also allow you to specify the amount of bandwidth per call.

Each location needs a link to all other locations and a single pipe to define
the total amount of bandwidth allowed in and out of the subzone.

The pipes have to be created first because they are needed to configure the
new links. Pipes define the amount of bandwidth per call and the total band-
width in and out of one end of a given link for the subzone. Pipes protect
the underlying architecture by restricting the amount of bandwidth entering
the low-latency queues defined in the WAN routers. If the queues in a WAN
router are overrun by high-priority traffic, all of the calls are degraded. When
the Cisco VCS pipe feature determines there is not enough bandwidth for
a given call, the endpoint receives a “resources unavailable” message from
Cisco VCS.

The bandwidth for the pipes is defined as 1536 kbps for the HQ site and
384 kbps for each remote location. This bandwidth allows four calls into the
HQ location and one call to each remote site. In the Borderless Networks
Foundation, the low-latency bandwidth for video has been set to 23 percent
of the defined bandwidth of a given connection. The specified configuration
works with a minimum of a 2-Mbps connection at the remote sites and an
8-Mbps connection at the HQ site. If more calls are needed at a location, you
need additional bandwidth for the pipe in that location.
