The paper deals with traffic management in IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) networks. The aim of this article is ensuring quality of service (QoS) in IMS network. Admission control (AC) is used to manage incoming traffic and to prevent the network congestion. The main function of AC is to maximize the utilization of network resources and to ensure the level of QoS. AC was applied on constant bit rate (CBR) and variable bit rate (VBR) traffic. Three methods were chosen for VBR traffic and they were compared. The last part of the article deals with simulations CBR and VBR traffic before and after application of AC.
