We all know the Microsoft networking principles but how knows, how this affects your performance? Do you really know enough about AnycastDNS, SplitVPN, DNS-Resolution,RTT, Packetloss, Bandwith requirements, etc? Do you check your connection the right way. Are you still measuring average bandwidth utilization every minute or are you ready to measure latency every second or more often with percentiles?

You got your tenant, add licenses and users and they start using all services. Many settings are to relaxed and you should adjust the configuration for your needs, to enhance security and protect the users from unexpected interactions. Lets walk though some well known and some hidden settings and understand their risk and chance

Poor audio, video artefacts etc are the most annoying problems with teams meetings and many thing can go wrong here. It can be the client, the headset, webcam and environment. But most time we have to dig deeper into Call Analystics, CQD-Databases and understand the various counters, who are collected by Microsoft Teams. Admins must understand, how A/V is transmitted, why you must open 3478-3481/UDP and how to check that. Learn about the various misconfigurations, how mediastreams are traveling and diagnose the bottelnecks. We talk about RTP, ICE, STUN, TURN and why bandwidthmonitoring with SNMP is not the right way to measure your network.
