Abstract

Integrated Services over Local Area Networks are treated. We describe the main functionalities of LAN devices that allow the realization of the Integrated Services model in such networks. Based on an admission control algorithm capable of providing queueing delay guarantees across a LAN, we evaluate the share of the network capacity that can be used by flows requiring QoS guarantees. We find that for LANs of realistic size, only a small percentage of the network capacity can be made available in order not to violate the QoS guarantees.
