X-Info: Archives for rolc via ftp://ietf.cnri.reston.va.us/ietf-mail-archive/rolc/ If the application specifies QoS and traffic characteristics and indirectly controls SVC management, then we are in agreement. Then it doesn't matter if the box it is running on sets up a VC or if it sits on an ethernet and the next hop sets up a VC. Are we in agreement on this?

this is what i have never understod about rsvp.  how can a host sitting
on a shared media, like ethernet, make any reservation whatsoever.  so
isn't it a requirement for rsvp to work that the hosts are directly
connected to such a link layer network, eg. atm, that supports
reservation requests?  what does it help if all the routers in the whole
internet are rsvp capable if the last hop isn't?
