Foil 6 RSVP Protocol Messages

From Part II of RSVP Reservation Protocol CPS640 Internet and Multimedia Technologies -- Spring 98. by Marek Podgorny,Nancy McCracken


Adspec: a Path message may optionally carry a package of OPWA advertising information.
  • An Adspec received in a Path message is passed to the local traffic control, which returns it updated
  • The updated version is then forwarded in Path messages sent downstream.
  • Sender Tspec is never changed, Adspec may be changed by intermediate nodes
  • Adspec includes both parameters describing the properties of the data path (availability of specific QoS services) and parameters required by specific QoS control services to operate correctly.
  • Adspec is finally passed to the application via RSVP API.
