Abstract

See full text

An ingress node inserts into a header of a packet service level agreement information and forwards the packet. At an egress node of the network, the packet is received and the service level agreement information is obtained from the header of the packet. The egress node verifies whether there is conformance to a service level agreement based on at least one parameter associated with reception of one or more packets at the egress node and the service level agreement information.
