Traffic
management provides services on scheduling, prioritization and congestion
control at various layers such as packet, flow, call, user, and application in
order to manage and share resources such as the network bandwidth, system
buffer and processor time in order to meet the quality of service requirements of
applications. As networking and system features become more complex and
application become more QoS sensitive, traffic management becomes more
important and involved. For example, for real-time applications, with strict
delay requirements, careful use of traffic management services which provide
more detailed monitoring, scheduling, and intelligence is needed.
