Next Generation Networks Chapter 10
Knowledge Concepts • QoS concepts • Bandwidth needs for Internet traffic
Important Terms • QoS • Streaming video • Compression • MPEG • Delay • Jitter • Latency • Isochronous traffic • IP switches • CoS • MPLS
Bandwidth and Expansion • Internet traffic doubles every 11 months • Traffic increases due to changing nature of applications—more video and music with high bandwidth • Streaming video requires 3-7 Mbps • Video compression • MPEG standards
Broadband Requirements • High speed and capacity • From terabits to petabits! • Bandwidth on demand • Any time allocation • Bandwidth reservation • Guarantee of needed bandwidth • Support of isochronous traffic • Traffic with no tolerance for delay • QoS • Provide variable service levels
IP Networks • Traditional routers not designed to handle high-speed/large scale network traffic • Demand exceeds capacity of core, creates queue over-run • Capacity over-load and lost packets • Congestion and slow response times • Routers send traffic to shortest path not least congested • During congestion, routers can take minutes to recalculate a new route • IP switching improves speed
ATM • Provides for real-time traffic management • Enables CoS and QoS • Emerging class of terabit switch routers for backbone • QoS accomdates priority control, cell loss and delay • Implicit means the application chooses the required QoS • Explicit means the network manager controls the decision
ATM Service Levels • CBR (constant bit rate) for streaming video • VBR (variable bit rate) for providing bandwidth according to allocation policy • ABR (available bit rate) for service guarantees for average to peak traffic patterns • UBR (unspecified bit rate) provides a best effort service
IP QoS • IntServ—controls end-to-end packet delays • Bandwidth reservation technique • Applications request bandwidth from the host • Uses FIFO queuing • DiffServ—packets marked to receive special treatment • Really CoS model • Prioritizes streams and marks traffic so nodes can provide different levels of service • Evolved from IntServ
