Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) Architecture

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 54
Abstract: This document describes a general architecture for flow admission and termination based on pre-congestion information in order to protect the quality of service of established, inelastic flows within a single Diffserv domain. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
