COPS-SLS usage for dynamic policy-based QoS management over heterogeneous IP networks.

COPS-SLS usage for dynamic policy-based QoS management over heterogeneous IP networks.

While each IP domain can deploy its own strategy to manage network resources, multimedia traffic needs end-to-end QoS management to obtain an overall service level. The provision of end-to-end QoS over a heterogeneous environment implies the negotiation of a mutually acceptable SLA. This article pre...
