Paper Abstract:
|
This paper is focused on the quality of service assurance in data networks. However, it does not analyze the well-known
QoS methods working on the network layer like IntServ and DiffServ technology. It is rather about searching methods for
QoS assurance that would enable better cooperation between the end application and the technology of quality of service
assurance. The end user of the IntServ and DiffServ technologies has not got many possibilities how to influence the
resulting parameters of network traffic. The user or the application working on the end station demands certain
parameters of the network traffic but the main decision about the provision of network resources is up to the edge
network component. The aim of this paper is to search for QoS methods that would assure greater possibilities for the end
application when defining and reaching the required network parameters. This article is centred on the assurance of QoS
via mechanisms that are part of the operating system Microsoft Windows XP. The Windows XP operating system offers
the possibility of assuring QoS on both the network and the link layer of the ISO/OSI reference model. The Traffic
Control Monitor application is analyzed in detail. It enables setting the QoS parameters for concrete data flows. In
conclusion, possibilities of using the Windows XP QoS mechanisms as the basis for new QoS assurance methods will be
mentioned. |
