摘要

It is widely accepted that the next major requirement and milestone in the Internet is the ability to provide qualities of service to various applications. The Internet community and the standards bodies have been working on myriad schemes to achieve this objective. One of the prominent and promising approaches is being defined and developed at the Differentiated Services Working Group in IETF. We model the traffic associated with Assured Forwarding (AF) Per-Hop Behavior (PHB) in differentiated services enabled IP networks in this paper. Furthermore, we analyze the effect of such traffic on network resources with the objective of developing efficient traffic engineering methodologies. We also formulate the optimization problem relating to traffic engineering in DS networks with an MPLS core.
