Method for service differentiation in PPP protocol

Network terminations (H1, H2, H3) mark packets of a Point-to-Point Protocol stream (PPP_str1, PPP_str2, PPP_str3) with a type-of-service indication indicative for the quality of service desired for transfer of this Point-to-Point Protocol stream (PPP_str1, PPP_str2, PPp_str3). The type-of-service in...

Zusammenfassung:Network terminations (H1, H2, H3) mark packets of a Point-to-Point Protocol stream (PPP_str1, PPP_str2, PPP_str3) with a type-of-service indication indicative for the quality of service desired for transfer of this Point-to-Point Protocol stream (PPP_str1, PPP_str2, PPp_str3). The type-of-service indication is used in multiplexing network points (NAS) to schedule transport of packets of different Point-to-Point Protocol packet streams (PPP_str1, PPP_str2, PPP_str3) based on priorities associated with the type-of-service indications thereof. To mark the packets with a type-of-service indication, a type-of-service field may be added to the packets, or the existing protocol identification field may be used.
