Abstract: A method for guaranteeing service reliability in an end-to-end Quality of Service framework is provided. The method includes checking whether connection information held in all node equipment gone through by a session connection is consistent. If the connection information is consistent, the consistency check is completed. Otherwise, the inconsistent connection information is released from the node equipment. In the provided method, a consistency check is performed inside every node equipment, and between node equipment in the network, and thus, abnormal resources may be retrieved, so that network service ability will not be affected by abnormal situations. Consistent with the provided method, degradation of service ability because of network abnormity can be avoided, and network reliability and availability can be improved.

Abstract: A method for guaranteeing service reliability in an end-to-end Quality of Service framework, including: checking whether connection information held in all node equipment gone through by a session connection is consistent; if it is, finishing the consistency check; otherwise, releasing the inconsistent connection information from the node equipment. In this invention, consistency check is performed inside every node equipment, and between node equipment in the network, and thus, abnormal resources may be retrieved, so that network service ability will not be affected by abnormal situations. When the network is of large scope, consistency check can be done according to signaling flow sequence for establishing a session connection. When an inconsistent situation is detected, the node equipment gives a feedback to its upstream node equipment. Usually, there is a great quantity of sessions on a network, so it is better to carry out consistency check in batch for decreasing spending. With this method, degradation of service ability because of network abnormity can be avoided, and network reliability and availability can be improved, which is of great economic benefits.

Abstract: A method, device, and system for admission control in a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) are provided. The method includes: converging resource reservation requests from users, in which the resource reservation requests contain bandwidth values to be occupied; and determining whether a total bandwidth value in the converged resource reservation requests is larger than a preset bandwidth threshold of a transmission path; if yes, controlling to establish a new transmission path using an identifier (ID) number of the transmission path originally distributed by the system, in which a bandwidth value of the newly established transmission path is larger than the total bandwidth value in the converged resource reservation requests, and the total bandwidth value is a sum of bandwidth values to be occupied for data transmission in the converged resource reservation requests. Therefore, a bandwidth of a transmission path is dynamically adjusted by keeping an ID number of the original transmission path, which effectively utilizes resources of a MAN, ensures quality of service (QoS) of transmission thereof, and decreases burden of the network.
