Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a system and method for using call admission control for client balancing. Specifically, a network device receives a message from a first access point in a network indicating that the first access point has rejected a call request received by the first access point from a particular client device. The particular client device is associated with the first access point. Moreover, the network device selects a second access point that is located in a radio frequency neighborhood of the particular client device. Further, the network device determines that the second access point has capacity to accept the call request from the particular client device, and steers the client device to associate with the second access point.
