Impact of QoS operations on an experimental testbed network
By making the best use of limited bandwidth, quality of service (QoS) provisioning over internet is essential for satisfying various types of internet-application requirements. The traffic classification and scheduling are the key functions to provide various kinds of class of service (CoS) under an overload condition. This paper investigates QoS performance in a network equipment testbed when implementing these main functions. We examine the major CoS functions provided by the Juniper T320 router, and measure their performance. In addition to fundamental analysis of the QoS behavior, we show the impact of QoS operations on a parallel system distributed in multi-domain networks as a practical case study of grid environments.
