Local management for QoS parameters

The video, voice, multimedia next-generation applications are using real-time data transmissions. Therefore, taking into account that all these applications are transmitted “over IP”, variable bandwidth has to be provided for specific situations in order to prevent network congestion. The active equipments meet these requirements and provide the network management. However, how will it be if the network equipments could be replaced by a software able to take over their capacities? The current paper presents a new approach concerning the setting of QoS parameters, by replacing the active network equipments with an application for data traffic limitations, providing a certain guaranteed bandwidth for a certain user, depending on the belonging to a certain group of users from “Active Directory”.
