QOS API

The QOS API is the programmatic interface to the RSVP SP. Under most circumstances, the QOS API is the only interface that programmers will require to create QOS-aware or QOS-enabled applications. Most operations that happen on behalf of an application in the QOS sequence are a result of QOS API calls communicating requests down (and sometimes back up) through QOS components, creating a QOS-enabled flow of data that keeps important data moving through the network with preferential transmission consideration.

For more information on the programming elements included in the QOS API, see QOS Reference.
