Abstract:
A network configuration method includes receiving end user input indicative of a network configuration. The end user input may include: a plurality of service classes, a particular packet header field for each of the plurality of service classes, and a particular service class mixture for the plurality of service classes. The particular service class may be indicated by a particular value of the particular packet header field. The method may further include configuring an ingress router to prioritize packets sent to the end user in accordance with the network configuration and configuring an egress router to queue network packets sent from the end user in accordance with the network configuration.
