Why do that?

Just traffic shape each user/group of IP addresses to the total
bandwidth you want them to have and then set up a low latency queue for
voip traffic, that way the voip bandwidth can be used for data when
there are no calls but will give VoIP traffic priority over other
traffic.

Any old refurbished Cisco 2611 or 2621 will do the trick.

Look up "low latency queuing" and "traffic shaping" on cisco.com

If you are doing NAT on the router I recommend a general deployment (GD)
12.3 IP feature set IOS image.

I have to say, that unless you are quite good at driving Linux or *BSD's firewall/traffic shaping mechanisms, then I'd probably go for a Cisco - especially if this is a full-on corp-rat environment.

I would use a Linux box, but then I've been using Linux boxes for a great number of years including setting up some hairy/scarey traffic management.

I'd use a MikroTik or 2

Subject: [asterisk-users] Bandwidth shapping device


I have a link to a building (e.g. 10Mb/s) and want to split up the
bandwidth to different users. Each user should get e.g.,  512kB/s plus
256kB/s dedicated for VoIP.

What kind of device can I use for that ?  (managing switch ??? which
one?)
