A QoS-Driven ISP Selection Mechanism for IPv6 Multi-Homed Sites

Overview A global solution for the provision of QoS in IPng sites must include ISP selection based on per-application requirements. This paper presents a new site-local architecture for QoS-driven ISP selection in multi-homed domains, performed in a per application basis. This architecture proposes the novel use of existent network services, a new type of routing header, and the modification of address selection mechanisms to take into account QoS requirements. This proposal is an evolution of current technology, and therefore precludes the addition of new protocols, enabling fast deployment. The site-local scope of the proposed solution results in ISP transparency and thus in ISP independency.
