Application Type
Application Type indicating the primary function of the application(s) defined for this network
policy, advertised by an Endpoint or Network Connectivity Device. The possible application
types are shown below.
1. Voice - for use by dedicated IP Telephony handsets and other similar appliances
supporting interactive voice services. These devices are typically deployed on a
separate VLAN for ease of deployment and enhanced security by isolation from
data applications.
2. Voice Signaling - for use in network topologies that require a different policy for the
voice Signaling than for the voice media.
3. Guest Voice - to support a separate limited feature-set voice service for guest users
and visitors with their own IP Telephony handsets and other similar appliances
supporting interactive voice services.
4. Guest Voice Signaling - for use in network topologies that require a different policy
for the guest voice Signaling than for the guest voice media.
5. Softphone Voice - for use by softphone applications on typical data centric devices,
such as PCs or laptops.
6. Video Conferencing - for use by dedicated Video Conferencing equipment and
other similar appliances supporting real-time interactive video/audio services.
7. Streaming Video - for use by broadcast or multicast based video content
distribution and other similar applications supporting streaming video services that
require specific network policy treatment. Video applications relying on TCP with
buffering would not be an intended use of this application type.
8. Video Signaling - for use in network topologies that require a separate policy for the
video Signaling than for the video media.
