Abstract

A Generate QoSEthernet layer (118) is provided, interposed between an IP layer and a QoSEthernet layer (115). The Generate QoSEthernet layer (118) intercepts call commands, such as call setup commands, and identifies a required QoS for the particular call. The Generate QoSEthernet layer (118) then generates the QoS request commands required by the QoSEthernet layer (115).
