ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for tunneling connection messages as part of data packets for reserving network resources. In particular, objects containing messages for use in establishing communication channels are defined as part of data packets comprising resource reservation messages. The defined objects need only be recognized by channel endpoints. Accordingly, the present invention may be implemented by suitably configuring the endpoints.
