Inter-domain LSP setup using bandwidth management points

Bandwidth management points (BMP) are a necessity to manage the intra and inter-domain resources in the Internet. We propose a way to setup inter-domain label switched path (LSP) with the help of a BMP in a multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) over the Diffserv network. We use extended simple inter-domain bandwidth broker signalling protocol (SIBBS) to distribute the labels inter-domain. We also use a BMP to interact with the MPLS to setup the intra-domain LSP and to provision the intra-domain traffic. With the help of a BMP, we show how end-to-end quality of service (QoS) can be achieved
