ABSTRACT:
Traffic is admitted to a network that facilitates differentiated end-to-end data transport between a Network Service Provider (NSP) and/or an Application Service Provider (ASP) and a customer Premises Network (CPN) that includes Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) by obtaining from a user of the network policy information associated with services accessed through the network. Communication is established between a node in the network and the NSP and/or the ASP and between the node in the network and the CPN using a resource reservation protocol (RSVP) to request resources for a flow having one of the services associated therewith between the NSP and/or the ASP and the CPN. A determination is made at the node in the network whether to grant or deny access to the RAN to the flow based on the policy associated with the one of the services.
