Abstract
This paper describes the design, implementation, and testing of an edge router supporting flow-based classification functions for real time traffic. Protocol and statistical analysis of application flows is performed to provide EF treatment to multimedia traffic without any user signaling. These functions take advantage of the modular Click environment and implement per flow traffic recognition and SLA management. Sample measurement shows the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed approach as a step beyond in the field of open routing design.
