wmm performance and qos shaping/policing

Hi,

I was wandering if you already asked yourself about the nature of the wmm(802.11e) technique from the performance point of view and especially its relation to qos policing/shaping. The wmm normally is giving access with priority to voice /video applications resulting in more latency more loss for best effort and background access categories. Assuming a scenario where you are not having any static call setup limitations ( via CAC ) should we consider any shaping/policing that would limit the bandwidth of voice category or guarantee the bandwidth to best effort of background flows. Thanks for your comments in advance.

Kind regards,

Michal

It would be better to consider shaping that would limit the bandwidth else best effort traffic would be overridden. Have a look at the link http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/3.2/configuration/guide/c32wlan.html#wp1085045 before deploying.

Hi , thank you for your feedback and it looks like in certain deployment ( for example if the client requires having voice and data allowed on the same ssid ) we should look into shaping to assure the coexistence of both services.

BR ,

Michal
