This memo presents the specification of Dynamic Service Negotiation
Protocol (DSNP). DSNP is a protocol to negotiate the SLS (Service Level
Specification) in IP layer. It can be used for service negotiation from
host to network, network to host, and network to network. The automated
negotiation makes service negotiation efficient in terms of time, cost, and
correctness, etc. The dynamic negotiation not only allows users to adapt
their needs dynamically, but also let providers better utilize the network.
The DSNP messages and packet formats are detailed. DSNP can be used in both
wireline and wireless networks. It is, however, particularly useful in
mobile environment. To demonstrate the usefulness of DSNP, a reference
wireless QoS architecture is presented. Exemplary applications are
illustrated.
