MPLS Traffic Engineering—DiffServ Aware

Last Updated: February 28, 2006
This guide presents extensions made to Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS TE)
that make it DiffServ aware. Specifically, the bandwidth reservable on each link for constraint-based
routing (CBR) purposes can now be managed through two bandwidth pools: a global pool and a
sub-pool. The sub-pool can be limited to a smaller portion of the link bandwidth. Tunnels using the
sub-pool bandwidth can then be used in conjunction with MPLS Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms
to deliver guaranteed bandwidth services end-to-end across the network.
