ABSTRACT:
A data flow system, where a source100transmits a reservation packet to an ingress element102. The ingress element102polices incoming message traffic and collects data flow information. Quality of service differentiation is realized by marking data packets of different data flows. The ingress element102registers the reservation packet and forwards the request to a core router106. The core router106evaluates the service level required, and available resources. Based on this evaluation the core router106will reject, accept, or modify the received message, indicate the price for the requested level of service, and forward the reservation packet. The process is repeated until the reservation packet reaches the destination110, which sends a feedback message to the source100indicating the result of the reservation packet. After establishing a reservation, source100transmits periodic control messages and collects information regarding resource availability, and the flow path.
