Cisco Jabber for Android, iOS, and Mac Features

Flexible DSCP Values

Applies to: Cisco Jabber for Mac, Cisco Jabber for Android, Cisco Jabber for iOS

Flexible Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) allows you to specify different DSCP values to separate the audio and video streams on the network.

The EnableDSCPPacketMarking parameter is used to enable or disable DSCP packet marking in the client.

You can configure the DSCP values for audio calls, video calls, audio portion for video calls, and audio portion for telepresence calls separately. For better bandwidth management and to protect audio stream degradation, separate the audio stream from the higher-bandwidth video stream. This can help when the network is congested or the call quality is impacted.

DSCP values are configured on Cisco Unified Communications Manager. For more information, see the Configure Flexible DSCP Marking and Video Promotion Policy section of the System Configuration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
