| 摘要 | Providing network access is disclosed. Use of a provider equipment port via which network access is provided to two or more downstream nodes, each having one or more classes of network traffic associated with it, is scheduled on a per class basis, across the downstream nodes. The respective network traffic sent to each of at least a subset of the two or more downstream nodes is limited, on a per downstream node basis, to a corresponding rate determined at least in part by a capacity of a communication path associated with the downstream node. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method of providing network access, comprising: scheduling on a per class basis, across downstream nodes, use of a provider equipment port via which network access is provided to two or more downstream nodes, each having one or more classes of network traffic associated with it; and limiting the respective network traffic sent to each of at least a subset of the two or more downstream nodes, on a per downstream node basis, to a corresponding rate determined at least in part by a capacity of a communication path associated with the downstream node; wherein scheduling on the per class basis includes determining a next subscriber queue within a class which queue is not currently in a hold status as a result of said rate limiting. | ||
