Abstract
Providing end-to-end QoS guarantees to mission critical applications comprises a main challenge for the today’s Internet infrastructure. The Differentiated Services architecture (DiffServ) enhanced by the Bandwidth Broker (BB) approach is a first step towards resource management. In this context, the architecture proposed in this paper realises a distributed BB architecture, in order to provide a more efficient way for managing the resources of a single domain.
Moreover, in order to provide a way for inter-domain resource control, the BGRP framework is applied and enhanced. The BGRP protocol provides sink-tree based aggregation of resource reservations for the delivery of end-to-end QoS to applications across multiple separately administered domains. Our discussion extends to quiet grafting mechanisms, which succeed in limiting the signaling load and efficiently handling the reserved resources between domains.
