Understand the Advantages and Disadvantages of Using RSVP
Advantages:
■ Admissions Control
RSVP not only provides QoS, but also helps other applications by
not transmitting when
the network is busy.
■ Network Independence/
Flexibility RSVP is not
dependent on a particular networking architecture.
■ Interoperability RSVP
works inside existing protocols and with other QoS mechanisms.
■ Distributed RSVP is a
distributed service and therefore has no central point of failure.
■ Transparency RSVP
can tunnel across an RSVP-unaware network.
Disadvantages:
■ Scaling Issues
Multifield classification and statefulness of reservations may consume memory and CPU resources.
■ Route selection and stability The shortest
path may not have available resources, and the active path may go down.
■ Setup time An
application cannot start transmitting until the reservation has been completed.
