Foil 13 RSVP Data Flows

From Reservation Protocol Large Web Application Class, CPS600/640 Fall 1997 -- Fall Semester 97. by Marek Podgorny * See also color IMAGE
RSVP defines a "session" as a data flow with a particular destination and transport-layer protocol.
  • The destination of a session is generally defined by DestAddress, the IP destination address of the data packets, and possibly by DstPort, a "generalized destination port". RSVP treats each session independently.
  • DestAddress is a group address for multicast delivery or the unicast address of a single receiver. DstPort could be defined by a UDP/TCP destination port field, by an equivalent field in another transport protocol, or by some application-specific information.
