# Skype for Business QoS Settings
|
||||
Setup Quality of Services (QoS) on Skype for Business Servers and Clients.
|
||||
|
||||
## You Network
|
||||
You must configure your network equipment to match the marks that are configured on the client/server part.
|
||||
|
||||
Some people get this QoS wrong: This configuration enables your Clients and Servers to mark the traffic! Not more, not less. Your network equipment must do the dirty work and prioritize and/or reserve bandwidth that match your requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
If you just load the stuff here, nothing will change. Your Skype Clients and servers will mark the packets and that's about it!
|
||||
|
||||
## What it does
|
||||
It configures the Skype for Business Servers to use a small range of ports for each function (e.g. Voice or Video). This range should match the Skype for Business Online (SfBO) configuration.
|
||||
All Skype for Business Clients should use these configuration after a restart/re-login. Even non-Windows clients will be using the configuration, because it is configured on the server.
|
||||
|
||||
For Skype for Business Servers and Windows Based Clients, a dedicated Group Policy will be established. You should apply these to all OU's where the Clients and/or Servers are located.
|
||||
The Client Policy also contains configuration/settings for VDI instances, and even for Citrix HDX setup's.
|
||||
|
||||
There is also the matching Edge configuration, these boxes should never be domain joined. Therefore, we use local registry settings!
|
||||
|
||||
To make the end-to-end setup, there is also a dedicated Group Policy for Exchange Servers. This Policy should be applied at minimum to all Exchange Servers that hosts the Unified Messaging Role. I apply these to all Exchange Servers.
|
||||
|
||||
## Please review everything
|
||||
Before using the scripts to configure and/or load anything, you should review them! Do not just execute them. These scripts will change a lot and it will reconfigure a lot on your Skype for Business servers!!!
|
||||
Don't blame me if something doesn't work as you might expect it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Detailed configuration
|
||||
The source is the documentation! I know, that sounds typical for a geek... But if you take a closer look at the scripts, you will see a lot of comments and documentation snippets. They should make the settings and a lot of the logic clear.
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft (MSFT) and the community provide a lot of very good and detailed documentation about Skype and QoS.
|
||||
|
||||
## Content
|
||||
Here is a quick overview of the content
|
||||
|
||||
### `Client_GPO.ps1`
|
||||
Create the Skype for Busines related Quality of Services Client Group Policy
|
||||
|
||||
### `Edge_REG.ps1`
|
||||
Setup the Skype for Business 2015 Edge Server for Quality of Services
|
||||
Edge Servers are not domain joined, we have to modify the registry instead of using a Group Policy
|
||||
|
||||
### `ExchangeUM_GPO.ps1`
|
||||
Create the Skype for Busines related Exchange Unified Messaging Quality of Services Group Policy
|
||||
|
||||
### `Server_GPO.ps1`
|
||||
Create the Skype for Busines related Quality of Services Server Group Policy
|
||||
|
||||
### `Skype_Server_Config.ps1`
|
||||
Setup the Skype for Business 2015 Server for Quality of Services
|
||||
|
||||
## Signed
|
||||
There is a signed version of the scripts within the 'signed' directory. The scripts are the same, they are signed with a valid certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Support
|
||||
Are you kidding me? This is free software. Take it, or leave it!
|
||||
|
||||
## Final remarks
|
||||
You Network Equipment must support QoS End-to-End!
|
||||
|
||||
Teams is not supported (yet).
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the new ports for Skype for Business Online (SfBO) are still missing. I might provide an updated version for them soon.
|
||||
|
||||
Hybrid with Skype for Business Online (SfBO) will work! But if you want to use QoS End-To-End, Fast Track might be required. Ask Microsoft!
