Dissemination of quality of service information in a distributed environment
Abstract:
A request to subscribe to QoS information is received from a monitoring element. A monitoring element may be a centralized communication system, such as a Private Branch Exchange (PBX). The QoS information is from a plurality of network elements at a plurality of locations. A network element may be, for example, a communication endpoint, a router, a media server, and/or the like. The QoS information is based on a location map that includes information for the plurality of locations. The plurality of locations are controlled by separate communication systems. A determination is made whether a threshold for the QoS information has been reached. If the threshold for the QoS information has reach reached, a notification is sent to the monitoring element. Upon receiving the notification, the monitoring element can cause an action to occur to address a QoS problem.
