I'd agree. Even if he's raised the IP Precedence of the VoIP traffic WFQ isn't the best choice. LLQ is the way to go.
There may also be problems with the vendor equipment. Nortel, as an example, has an issue with their ITG-2 product that causes it to use up more bandwidth than is necessary, but that's only in certain call transfer or conference situations, or if you're using centralized voice mail. In a nutshell, it's easy to get redundant call paths that could be dropped but they aren't so they use up bandwidth and increase the total latency unnecessarily. John ""Steven A.
