1. Real-time information
Today: oversubscription of PQ (expensive/$$) – looking for dynamic Traffic-Engineering for QoS (dynamically assign bandwidth to classes)
Better: application asks instead of network does provision (today)
Correct marking of streams using 5-tuple info (multiple streams per communication) - understanding network requirements

2. Use-cases Wireless: Main area for improvement (in our case)
Admission Control on a per-AP level
‘Push’ client to neighboring AP if QoE drops (feedback from application) – if better scenario
Control platinum access (WMM) to medium
Traffic Engineering of media-paths: use high-cost links for voice/video
Internet first choice for users
Do not pay premium to long-haul non time-sensitive traffic (back to HQ)

3. Use-cases – cont. Wired: Admission Control
Mid-call updates (change of codec, add or remove video, etc)
Monitoring & feedback from network – ‘what if’ scenario’s, still dropping packets in a PQ
Long-term objective:
End-2-end picture via MPLS / Providers: need federation API’s which allow Traffic Engineering discovery
