Asked by:
Skype for Business ports for QoS classification

Question
-
Hi All,
one of our clients is using Skype for Business in their network and send the traffic through our backbone.
I would like to remark the incoming packets so it is sure that Voice traffic goes to voice class, Video to Stream and Data to Data class.
The difficulty is to identify these 3 different type of traffic. Do Skype for Business uses different ports for all these different traffic?
If yes, could you specify the exact port numbers?
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
You'll need to review the existing media port ranges. If left at default, for the purposes of QoS planning & deployment I suggest you configure different ranges. For example, it's beneficial for the P2P media ports to be within the same range as the server media ports.
