Foil 20 RSVP Reservation Model (Continued)

From Reservation Protocol Large Web Application Class, CPS600/640 Fall 1997 -- Fall Semester 97. by Marek Podgorny * See also color IMAGE
Forward the request upstream
  • The reservation request is propagated upstream towards the appropriate senders. The set of sender hosts to which a given reservation request is propagated is called the "scope" of that request.
Forwarded reservation request may differ from the request that it received from downstream:
  • Reservations for the same sender from different downstream branches of the tree are "merged" as reservations travel upstream; a node forwards upstream only the reservation request with the "maximum" flowspec.
  • Reservation might be purposefully modified by traffic control.
