Managing A/V Edge Configuration

By default, an A/V Edge Server applies a global policy, which controls bandwidth limits for users and ports as well as the lifetime of media relay tokens. This setting is not exposed in the Lync Server Control Panel and must be managed with the Lync Server Management Shell.

First, use the Get-CsAVEdgeConfiguration cmdlet to view the Global defaults:

Unless there is a need to limit the values, leave the Global policy in place. To create a new A/V Edge configuration, which applies at the SF site level, use the following command. In this example, the MaxTokenLifetime is increased to 10 days, the bandwidth per user is decreased to 5000KB, and maximum bandwidth per port is decreased to 2000KB:

New-CsAVEdgeConfiguration "site:SF" –MaxTokenLifetime "10:00:00" –MaxBandwidthPerUserKb 5000 –MaxBandwidthPerPortKb 2000
