I was under the same impression that "IP RTP PRIORITY" was a "one-liner"
which got you out from under having to do alot of fancy Queing if all you
needed was the ability to prioritize voice or video. Can you change the
bandwidth with the "bandwidth" configuration command to raise the RTP
ceiling? The quieng question is a good one, because, allthough queing is
supposed to be applied to a phisical interface, you can apply quing in a
frame-relay class-map, and different maps can be applied to different
interfaces.
