Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a method and a device for bandwidth dynamic use assignment in a packet telephone system. SOLUTION: A network monitoring agent 300 that monitors a network condition such as a traffic amount and discriminates a timing to dynamically adjust a coded scheme as to connection is disclosed. The network monitoring agent 300 can select a coding standard on the basis of, e.g. a current network traffic amount, a network error characteristic, a date and time or a weekday. For example, when the network traffic is lighter, the coding standard serving a lower compression and a higher quality level is selected. The network monitoring agent 300 informs a device relating to each connection about a change in the coding scheme.
