Abstract:
1. A method of providing remote access to a home network, said method comprising: registering an HA (home agent) of the home network with an SG (signaling gateway), wherein registering includes setting up a secure communication tunnel and receiving QoS (quality of service) parameters; receiving an application request in an RG (residential gateway); providing the request to an HA; determining, by the home agent, the bandwidth requirements for executing the application; determining whether the application bandwidth requirements exceed the bandwidth allocation of the QoS parameters; permitting execution of the application if the application bandwidth requirements do not exceed the bandwidth allocation of the QoS parameters; and reducing the bandwidth allocation of the stored QoS parameters by the application bandwidth requirement for each application that has been given permission to execute through the HA but has not yet completed execution.
