  Abstract

This paper researches and evaluates a bandwidth reallocation mechanism for efficient DifServ QoS support in MPLS networks by monitoring the network traffic status and reallocating unused bandwidth. While the Differentiated Services in MPLS Networks architecture provides QoS management through the RSVP resource reservation, this mechanism is based on a static provisioning of resource. But this approach can lead to waste bandwidth in some service classes or, leave some service classes' resource starved. This paper presents the bandwidth reallocation dynamically based on network traffic status for bandwidth usage maximization.
