Abstract :
IP-based networks were never designed for real time traffic, yet QoS support in such networks is needed to accommodate both global use and the more demanding applications now emerging. Changes in packet handling, in particular, will help provide QoS support in IP networks. The article focuses on the issues and principles concerning router modification for IP packet handling
