Abstract

This document provides guidelines for achieving end-to-end Quality ofService (QoS) in a Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) domain where the accessnetwork is based on IEEE 802.11. RFC 7222 describes QoS negotiationbetween a Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) and Local Mobility Anchor (LMA)in a PMIPv6 mobility domain. The negotiated QoS parameters can beused for QoS policing and marking of packets to enforce QoSdifferentiation on the path between the MAG and LMA. IEEE 802.11 andWi-Fi Multimedia - Admission Control (WMM-AC) describe methods forQoS negotiation between a Wi-Fi Station (MN in PMIPv6 terminology)and an Access Point. This document provides a mapping between theabove two sets of QoS procedures and the associated QoS parameters.This document is intended to be used as a companion document to RFC7222 to enable implementation of end-to-end QoS.
