Abstract
A method for use in a communications network includes obtaining, at a control node, respective bandwidth information of respective connected devices of media sessions; determining at least one scaling factor of a respective bandwidth of at least one of the respective connected devices of a media session of the media sessions; and transmitting the at least one scaling factor to the at least one of the respective connected devices. The at least one of the respective connected devices uses the scaling factor to adjust an available bandwidth. The at least one of the respective connected devices uses the scaling factor to adjust encoding parameters of the media session.
