Claim 7:
8. A method for prioritizing network traffic in a network, which includes a plurality of traffic flows flowing through the network, the method comprising:
receiving policy data at a plurality of logic modules distributed within the network;
determining traffic data for each of the traffic flows, assigning priority to each of the traffic flows based on the traffic data, and determining a traffic action for each of the traffic flows based on the received policy data and the assigned priority;
enforcing the determined traffic action by at least one shaper object associated with each of the plurality of logic modules; and
determining available bandwidth for the plurality of logic modules based on the aggregated bandwidth for each priority of the plurality of traffic flows from each of the plurality of logic modules and also determining the traffic action based on the available bandwidth.
