Hi,
I am trying to understand the differences between using SNMP/MIB
for general network management and using COPS/PIB for QoS
provisioning. After reading through the RFCs and drafts, I am
just getting more and more confused. My question is "Isn't QoS
provisioning is a case of network management?" Some Cisco router
does even have a QoS MIB, so why can't one use SNMP to manage a
network device and therefore provide admission control?
Thanks and best regards
Lihua
