I am looking for some input from all of you experienced network designers.
Does a device exist that would throttle or block all network traffic based on a different devices condition?
Ex... Small home network with low isp bandwidth available. ( 760kbps up). Voip works fine with no other network traffic happening. Router Qos has limitations and doesn't do anything for incoming traffic. Is there a scenario possible that could be set up where upon Voip traffic happening (call being established), all other network traffic would be throttled to zero or blocked until the voip condition changed?
I know about Qos- will not control incoming traffic. So if streaming or loading has started, Qos is useless.
I could set up bandwidth throttling with router, but to be effective all non voip traffic would need to be low all the time even when the voip overhead is not needed.
I don't know if I am explaining things well enough but hopefully you can get my drift and let me know if I am just dreaming up something that doesn't exists, or if it is really possible.
Thanks in advance!
