4. For each subnet in the topology, specify the associated network site. Every subnet in the network
topology must be associated with a specific network site, because subnet information is used to
determine the network site on which an endpoint is located. When the locations of both parties in a
session are known, CAC can determine whether or not there is sufficient bandwidth to establish a call.
If you are working with a large number of subnets, it is recommended that you use a Comma-Separated Value
(CSV) file with four columns: IPAddress, mask, description, and NetworkSiteID.
For a single subnet, use the following command:
New-CSNetworkSubnet –SubnetID “192.168.10.0” –MaskBits “24” –NetworkSiteID
SeattleSite
For bulk, the following example shows the contents of a CSV file named subnet.csv:
IPAddress, mask, description, NetworkSiteID
192.168.10.0, 24, "Seattle:Subnet for SeattleSite", SeattleSite
10.11.57.0, 24, "Seattle:Subnet for SeattleSite", SeattleSite
10.21.57.0, 24, "NewYork:Subnet", NewYorkSite
10.31.57.0, 24, "Austin:Subnet", AustinSite
10.41.57.0, 24, "SanFrancisco:Subnet", SanFranciscoSite
5. Create network regions. Each region has a specified central site. Check for the designated Central site
and use that reference in the following commands:
New-CsNetworkRegion –Identity Seattle -CentralSite <replace with the central site
from topology> -Description “HeadQuarters - Seattle”
New-CsNetworkRegion –Identity SanFrancisco -CentralSite <replace with the central
site from topology> -Description “Remote region 1 - SFO”
New-CsNetworkRegion –Identity Austin -CentralSite <replace with the central site
from topology> -Description “Remote region 2 - Austin”
New-CsNetworkRegion –Identity NewYork -CentralSite <replace with the central site
from topology> -Description “Remote region 3 - NY”
6. Create bandwidth policy profiles. Bandwidth policy profiles are predefined policies that can be applied
to multiple network sites. The example policies created in this step set limits for overall audio traffic,
individual audio sessions, overall video traffic, and individual video sessions. For example, the
5Mb_Link bandwidth policy profile sets the following limits:
– Audio Limit: 2,000 kbps
– Audio Session Limit: 200 kbps
– Video Limit: 1,700 kbps
– Video Session Limit: 700 kbps
Run the New-CsNetworkBandwidthPolicyProfile command to create bandwidth policy profiles:
New-CsNetworkBandwidthPolicyProfile -Identity 5Mb_Link –Desription “BW profile for
5Mb links” -AudioBWLimit 2000 -AudioBWSessionLimit 200 -VideoBWLimit 1700 -
VideoBWSessionLimit 700
New-CsNetworkBandwidthPolicyProfile -Identity 10Mb_Link –Desription “BW profile for
10Mb links” -AudioBWLimit 4000 -AudioBWSessionLimit 200 -VideoBWLimit 2800 -
VideoBWSessionLimit 700
New-CsNetworkBandwidthPolicyProfile -Identity 50Mb_Link –Desription “BW profile for
50Mb links” -AudioBWLimit 20000 -AudioBWSessionLimit 200 -VideoBWLimit 14000 -
VideoBWSessionLimit 700
