RSVP is used to set up reservations for network resources. When an application in a host (the data stream receiver) requests a specific quality of service (QoS) for its data stream, it uses RSVP to deliver its request to routers along the data stream paths. RSVP is responsible for the negotiation of connection parameters with these routers. If the reservation is setup, RSVP is also responsible for maintaining router and host states to provide the requested service. ? Each node capable of resource reservation has several local procedures for reservation setup and enforcement. Policy control determines whether the user has administrative permission to make the reservation. In the future, authentication, access control and accounting for reservation will also be implemented by policy control. Admission control keeps track of the system resources and determines whether the node has sufficient resources to supply the requested QoS. ? The RSVP daemon checks with both procedures. If either check fails, the RSVP program returns an error notification to the application that originated the request. If both checks succeed, the RSVP daemon sets parameters in the packet classifier and packet scheduler to obtain the requested QoS. The packet classifier determines the QoS class for each packet and the packet scheduler orders packet transmission to achieve the promised QoS for each stream. ? RSVP daemon also communicate with the routing process to determine the path to send its reservation requests and to handle changing memberships and routes. ? This reservation procedure is repeated at routers along the reverse data stream path until the reservation merges with another reservation for the same source stream. * Events for Setting up an RSVP Session ?
