Abstract

Two related problems of traffic shaping are considered in this paper. Both are applicable to the context of provisioned MPLS label-switched routes. The first involves a novel application of traffic shaping to connection-level arrival processes. A type of Erlang-B bound is derived. The second involves the transmission of secondary best-effort data traffic into a provisioned variable bit-rate (VBR) “channel” handling a primary (real-time) flow.
