TY - CONF T1 - Extending QoS support from Layer 3 to Layer 2 T2 - 15th International Conference on Telecommunications, St. Petersburg, Russia Y1 - 2008 A1 - Christos Bouras A1 - Vaggelis Kapoulas A1 - Kostas Stamos A1 - Dimitris Primpas A1 - Leonidas Poulopoulos A1 - Vassilis Papapanagiotou AB - This paper presents some of the results obtained by the application of Ethernet Layer 2 Quality of Service in IP networks. IP networks traditionally provide Quality of Service in Layer 3. However, since there is an enormous existing Layer 2 infrastructure, today?s networks could benefit from the deployment of Layer 2 Quality of Service and the cooperation between Layer 2 Quality of Service and Layer 3 Quality of Service. In this paper, experiments are suggested and conducted and a scheme is suggested for efficient cooperation between Layer 2 and Layer 3 QoS provisioning.
