Bandwidth required for VoIP control

jhinton

In a IP telephony call, how much bandwidth is typically used for the skinny protocol traffic control? I am setting up QoS for the control protocol and wondered how much should be provisioned per call?

Thanks in advance

Skinny protocol doesn't use much bandwidth. Reserve around .5kbps per voice channel.

According to “Cisco IP Telephony Solution Reference Network Design Guide Cisco CallManager Release 3.1 and 3.2 May 2002” you do require some bandwidth for call control (SCCP) and it depends on the number of IP endpoints that are deployed.

You can find this document under:

IP Telephony Solution Reference Network Document

CallManager Releases 3.1 and 3.2

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/779/largeent/netpro/avvid/srnd.html

On the page 3-9 you can find recommended values.

In most of the documentation I read... it can never get above 8kbps. I set up QOS in like this and it worked fine. I never had any problems. Of course I was using ppp but the same class map works for frame-relay.
