Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Collaborative qos architecture between diffserv and 802.11e wireless lan" ?
Performance verification remains as a future work. It will be their future research to study the DiffServ with accordance to the parameterized QoS of the 802.
Q3. What is the definition of a network node supporting DiffServ?
A network node supporting DiffServ consists of functional elements including Per Hop forwarding behavior, traffic classification, and conditioning function.
Q4. What is the function of the class-selector PHB?
The Class-Selector PHB is used for the backward compatibility with the existing IP precedence scheme current used in the IP network.
Q5. What is the purpose of the HCF?
The HCF combines functions from the DCF and PCF with some enhanced QoS-specific mechanisms and QoS data frames in order to allow a uniform set of frame exchange sequences to be used for QoS data transfers.
Q6. What is the way to map traffic class?
When the traffic class is mapped by user priority, 802.1D/Q frames are allocated into specific priority queues according to the traffic classes.
Q7. What is the MAC class of the 802.11e frame?
When the 802.11e MAC frame is received at the ingress of the VLAN bridge supporting 802.1D/Q, it is classified by VLAN ID, filtered via filtering ID (FID), and forwarded based on the traffic class that is mapped by user priority [5].
Q8. What is the DSCP value in each IP datagram?
Each IP datagram carries a Differentiated Service CodePoint (DSCP) value in its Differentiated Service (DS) field, which supercedes the IPv4 Type of Service (TOS) octet and IPv6 Traffic Classifier octet.
Q9. How can The authormodify DSCP values at the Ingress node?
In case of multiple DiffServ Domains, DSCP values can be modified at the Ingress node where the IP packets arrive across network service area.
Q10. What is the simplest way to map between DSCP and TCID?
When the IP packets are encapsulated in MAC frames, each frame should be allocated to a priority queue, or an AC, in MAC layer according to its TCID value.
Q11. What architectures can be considered as a QoS architecture?
According to the traffic control structure, two QoS architectures can be considered as follows: Direct mapped QoS between DSCP and TCID and Hierarchical QoS architecture.
Q12. What are the two parameters that can be used to differentiate the channel access delay?
the smaller AIFS[AC] and CWmin[AC], the shorter the channel access delay, and hence the more bandwidth share for a given traffic condition.
Q13. What is the commonality of the end-to-end QoS architecture?
Based on this commonality, end-to-end QoS architecture can be defined with minimal coordination amongst QoS traffic parameters such as DSCP in DiffServ, TCID in 802.11e MAC, and User Priority of TCI in 802.1D/Q.
Q14. What is the timing of the DCF channel access?
The timing of DCF channel access is illustrated in Fig. 2.The IEEE 802.11e defines a single coordination function, called the hybrid coordination function (HCF), for the QoS provisioning.
Q15. What is the definition of the prioritized QoS paradigm?
Under the prioritized QoS paradigm, the 802.11e provides differentiated channel access to traffic with 8 different priority levels.
Q16. What is the difference between the two architectures?
In this architecture, since IP packets are policed and shaped in the network layer, traffic control can support full range of DiffServ QoS as well as 802.11e.
