Efficient priority schemes for the provision of end-to-end quality of service for multimedia traffic over MPLS VPN networks

Abstract

In this paper, a VPN network simulation model will be built using the MPLS protocol and based on an existing network. Various queueing policies will be implemented to evaluate the provision of the end-to-end QoS requirements for various traffic types. Input traffic based on real data was used. After a thorough analysis of the policies, the merits and shortcomings of each policy are determined and recommendations are given along with future research directions.
