Guessing the bandwidth can be good for a first step but this is not enough.

I need to write a CAC (Call Admission Control) module for an 802.11
AP (Access Point).
The idea is to use a SIP Proxy to monitoring bandwith utilization
according to codec, and allow or disallow new sessions, depending on
resources.
Do you need to know the bandwidth in advance (thus guessing the neede
bandwidth during call setup and eventually deny the call setup if the
required bandwidth can not be guaranteed) (a) or do you need to know
the exact current bandwidth need (b)?
In case of (a) I think you need a B2BUA in the AP.
In case of (b) you can parse the RTP sockets and then count the media
packets routed by the AP to calculate the bandwidth.
Or you can port mediaproxy to the accesspoint and use thus capabilities.
Case (b)
is of course the target and mediaproxy looks useful, even if I
don't need the NAT features.
