Synopsis

Service-Level Agreement definition and deployment is a key issue for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and other network service providers as they construct a quality of service architecture for IP networks. An essential resource for network engineers and architects, Supporting Service-Level Agreements on IP Networks will help you build a core network capable of supporting a range of services, such as virtual private networks (VPNs), multicast traffic, and Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS). You'll also learn to create SLA solutions using off-the-shelf components in both best-effort and DiffServ/IntServ networks. See how to verify the performance of your SLA, as either a customer or network services provider, and use SLA's to support IPv6 networks.

About this title

Synopsis

For courses in Network Management and TCP/IP and Related Protocols.During the past decade, service level agreements have arisen as a way to guarantee particular quality of service levels for network performance. These agreements continue to grow in complexity as more advanced quality-enhancing technologies are developed to improve network performance. Supporting Service Level Agreements on IP Networks presents critical information for students hoping to work at Internet Service Providers (ISP) as network engineers on the technologies they can use to support varying levels of service and gives students working on enterprise networking technologies a means to evaluate the services provided across a network. Written to include the latest information on emerging service differentiation technologies.
