Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for DPI-enabled traffic shaping for xDSL networks are disclosed. According to one method, a DPI node analyzes signaling for an xDSL network access node or a broadband network gateway to determine nodal or link capacities available to nodes upstream from the network access node or the broadband network gateway for delivering downstream traffic to the network access device. The DPI node uses the determined capacities to shape downstream traffic delivered to the network access device.
