Book Description
Differentiated Services is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards effort to create a simple scheme which provides a range of quality of service (QoS) levels. It is one of the few technologies to date that will enable networks to handle traffic in a specific manner to meet the service demands of particular applications. This book offers network architects, engineers, and managers of Internet and other packet networks critical insight into the continuing development of Differentiated Services. Differentiated Services for the Internet includes:

Reviews


Diferenciação dos Serviços aos Clientes.
Vale a pena ter este livro. Pois, mantém o foco na tecnologia a que se propõe abordar sem muitos rodeios. Ainda assim, apresenta como esta mesma questão fora abordada por outras iniciativas. Dedica um capítulo a interpretação dos documentos da IETF relativos a esta tecnologia e faz a sua crítica e proposta de uma arquitetura para Serviços Diferenciados. A maior contribuição está na amplitude de sua abordagem que tem por objetivo esboçar um modelo de uma rede Multi-Serviço, Atraente e Lucrativa.

You should have this book.


More than just techniques
It is nice to see that someone is sharing us thoughts for more than 2 cents. Kilkki has presented in his book a clear and systematic chain of thoughts about Internet technology and its valuability for different usages. He uses a lot of effort to make clear the difference between the priority and reservation based QoS systems. He explains latest technologies and their relation to basic taxonomy (sharing vs reservation, priorities vs reservation). All the latest hypes are explained and reader is carried through these issues in a compact form. I would recommend this book for people who like to UNDERSTAND Internet technology on a level higher than acronyms, and bits and pieces.

Excellent review of Diff-serv
The book contains excellent information on Quality of service on the internet. It covers stuff ranging from the origin of QoS , how the IETF started with Integrated services and the reason for ths shift towards differentiated services. It also discusses tag switching, MPLS and the uses of these in VPN. I would recommend the book to anyone with some prior knowledge of the internet functioning, ATM and IP.
