A new charging scheme for multi-domain DiffServ networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a new charging scheme for multi-domain Differentiated Services (DiffServ) networks. Our scheme considers the existence of non-DiffServ networks on the route of transmission. The charging agent at the edge of the source domain inserts Charging Measurement (CM) packets in the DiffServ traffic, which contain traffic and charging information. The CM packets are subsequently returned by the charging agents at the downstream DiffServ domains. The charges can be easily calculated according to the feedback information in the returned CM packets. In addition to the above we propose two signalling mechanisms for our charging schemes. We show that our scheme is simple, fair and scalable.

Differentiated Services (Diffserv) which was proposed by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), is a scalable and robust model for providing the end-to-end QoS. In the Diffserv networks, metering mechanisms are used to measure traffic stream. The single rate Three Color Meter (srTCM) [1],which was proposed by IETF, meters an IP packet stream and marks its packets either green, yellow, or red....
