Tspec and Rspec (Traffic and Reservation Specs)
-
Tspec has two incarnations: Receiver_Tspec in Resv messages and Sender_Tspec in Path messages
-
Tspec is is a description of the traffic pattern for which service is being requested
-
Tspec is one side of a "contract" between the data flow and the service.
-
Service module agrees to provide a specific QoS if and only if the flow's data traffic remains conformant to the Tspec
-
Example: upper bound on the peak rate
