Abstract

The aim of this work is to define and implement an end-to-end approach to quality of service (QoS), operating across multiple management domains and exploiting a combination of link layer technologies. The architecture for the Premium IP service is presented, which aims at offering the equivalent of an end-to-end virtual leased line service at the IP layer across multiple domains. Also, the results of the initial testing performed for the validation of the service and the provisioning model for Premium IP are described. The work presented has been carried out in the framework of SEQUIN, a European Commission-funded research project.
