Foil 15 RSVP Reservation Model

From Reservation Protocol Large Web Application Class, CPS600/640 Fall 1997 -- Fall Semester 97. by Marek Podgorny * See also color IMAGE

An elementary RSVP reservation request consists of a "flowspec" and a "filter spec"; this pair is called a "flow descriptor".
  • The flowspec specifies a desired QoS. It is used to set parameters to the node's packet scheduler, assuming that admission control succeeds.
  • The filter spec, together with a session specification, defines the set of data packets -- the "flow" -- to receive the QoS defined by the flowspec. Filter spec is used to set parameters in the packet classifier.
