Schulzrinne, “Internet Quality of Service: an Overview” Columbia University, New York, New York, Technical Report CUCS-003-00, Feb. Ni “Internet QoS: A Big Picture”, IEEE Networks, March 1999 Differentiated Services (DiffServ, or DS) is a protocol for specifying and controlling network traffic by class so that certain types of traffic get precedence - for example, voice traffic, which requires a relatively uninterrupted flow of data, might get precedence over other kinds of traffic. Schooler, “SIP: Session Initiation Protocol”, IETF RFC 3261, June 2002. For fax transmission, there are ITU-T Recommendations T.37 3 and T.38 4 T. o Real-Time Interactive service class is intended for inelastic video flows from applications such as SIP-based desktop video conferencing applications and for. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves. Hence, SIP is the protocol of choice in this work. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. A test-bed implementation on Linux PCs of the proposed solutions is finally described. Moreover the paper describes the application of this mechanism to a particular QoS enabled IP network, which implements DiffServ as transport mechanisms (the DiffServ mechanisms are obtained by means of Traffic Control functionalities with the TCAPI software libraries) and modified COPS clients for resource admission control. The proposed mechanism is simple and it fully preserves backward compatibility and interoperability with current SIP applications. This work will describe an enhancement to SIP protocol for the interworking with a QoS enabled IP network. Among them SIP is currently having a lot of attention as a protocol for session signaling over the Internet. Therefore a lot of interest is currently devoted to the interaction of application level protocols with the QoS mechanism in IP networks. Voice, video and multimedia sessions are applications sensitive to the QoS provided by the underlying IP network.
