Abstract
The continuous development of new Internet technologies and multimedia services tend to an ever greater interest in practical solutions of the multicast transmission. Simultaneously, service providers more and more pay attention on appropriate selection of mechanisms to guarantee the QoS parameters needed for the proper delivery of services sensitive to transmission parameters. From a practical point of view, the final solution for the QoS aware multicast transmission should be on the one hand, closely associated with existing standard networks mechanisms on the other hand, be sufficiently flexible to offer proper level of independence from specific technologies. These, for the first look, conflicting requirements can be solved by the packet labeling technique. This raises the question whether the current operator of the wide or metropolitan area network may implement multicast transmissions with a guarantee of the Quality of Service (QoS) parameters based on Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) technology. The answer to this question is the content of this article.
