André Perez 
IP, Ethernet and MPLS Networks 
Resource and Fault Management

Support
This book summarizes the key Quality of Service technologies
deployed in telecommunications networks: Ethernet, IP, and MPLS.
The Qo S of the network is made up of two parts: fault and resource
management.



Network operation quality is among the functions to be fulfilled
in order to offer Qo S to the end user. It is characterized by four
parameters: packet loss, delay, jitter or the variation of delay
over time, and availability. Resource management employs mechanisms
that enable the first three parameters to be guaranteed or
optimized. Fault management aims to ensure continuity of
service.
