Abstract

A method and an arrangement in an IP network provides a scalable solution for reserving resources to obtain a predictable QoS end-to-end in a heterogeneous IP network. The object is achieved by categorizing the destination domain with a domain property label that for example informs about the availability of resources in the destination domain and about how to obtain QoS to the endpoint in this particular domain category.
