Abstract
In one embodiment, the technique dynamically adjusts resource allocations for each traffic class based on actual traffic load measured for each service class. In this way, the per-hop-behavior required by a differentiated service model may be achieved. Core nodes of a network operating according to a differentiated service model dynamically adjust resource allocations for multiple traffic classes without requiring explicit signaling from other network nodes. Policies for sharing resources among multiple service classes can be enforced.
