Experimental Research on Diffserv-Aware MPLS Traffic Engineering

Abstract

Diffserv-aware and Traffic Engineering combine the advantages of MPLS, Traffic Engineering (TE) and Differentiated Services (Diffserv, DS) to provide high performance and Quality of Service(QoS) in networks. We have designed three scenarios on Juniper Networks platforms to analyze the packet loss rate and delay for video, voice and data. The results show that MPLS DS-TE can improve the QoS for differentiated service effectively. The research has practical value for the development of DS-TE based on MPLS.
