ABSTRACT:
Methods, apparatuses and systems facilitating hierarchical network traffic classification and resource allocation schemes. In one embodiment, the present invention provides traffic classification data structure facilitating creation and configuration of multi-dimensional, hierarchical network resource allocation schemes. The present invention features a hierarchical network traffic classification scheme that allows users to logically embed (or otherwise associate) one or more reference trees within selected traffic class nodes of a given traffic classification tree. In one embodiment, an administrator can create a pool of referenceable traffic classification trees and select such trees or sub-trees from the pool to achieve a variety of different traffic classification configurations. The present invention, in one embodiment, also facilitates the implementation of a system or domain-level workflow interface that features managed access links as configurable objects as opposed to the network devices operating on the access links.
