  abstract = {This paper presents a system designed to enhance Quality of Service (QoS) for a global video conferencing service. By a combination of off-the-shelf equipment and open-source software, the proposed system establishes a global service net- work with efficient cold-potato internal routing techniques.

Through 15 years of operational experience, we have developed egress selection heuristics to minimize latency and loss in real- time, end-to-end services. The use of legacy routers and switches guarantees stability and security, while the implementation of specially adapted Route Reflector software provides flexibility.

This study highlights the notable enhancements achieved in terms of accurate egress routing placement, latency reduction, and a significant decrease in customer support cases. By sharing our experiences, we aim to contribute valuable insights to the field of network optimization for real-time services.},
