ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a device, system and method a method for applying a certain Quality of Service (QoS) to a data stream (31a–31c,32a–32b,33a) of an application (31–33) communicating data over a sockets connection. The method comprises providing a uniquely identifiable identifier (UID, Stream Type) the application (31–33) or to the data stream (31a–31c,32a–32b,33a) from or to the application, and associating said identifier (UID, Stream Type) with a particular QoS in order to apply the particular QoS to the particular application (31–33) or to the particular data stream (31a–31c,32a–32b,33a), which application or data stream is identified by the identifier.
