You cannot run H.323 traffic, audio/video, because of the nature of data
traffic, i.e.. burstiness, on the same backbone without using some bandwidth
management. The two main network vendors, Cisco and Nortel are just two that
I work with. Cisco uses it's IOS component QOS, Quality of Service, and
Nortel has its Optivity software management. These management tools use QOS
to offset such problems as latency and jitter. to overcome these you have to
enable guaranteed bandwidth and priority queuing for such traffic as H.323.
For more information contact your Network administrator or else go to the
Cisco or Nortel website. I have been able to initiate a NetMeeting call from
within the firewall and been able to receive audio/video but have not been
able to if the call has been placed from outside the firewall.

Subject: [NetMeeting] New to NetMeeting with LAN/WAN Bandwidth Questions
>Does anyone know of any postings that talk about using NetMeeting 3.01 with
Audio and Video enabled on a corporate network? I'm especially interested
in LAN/WAN bandwidth issues, traffic prioritization at the routers, and
using NetMeeting through a corporate Fire Wall.

>Also I would be interested in how to eliminate the audio "Echoing" problem.
I have had success with the Earphones/Microphone combination, but I was
hoping for a solution that would work when there is more then one person in
front of the camera.
