An apparatus (Fig.3) for switching data packet flows by assigning schedules to guaranteed delay and bandwidth traffic. The network switches (5, 6, 8, and 9) are given a schedule by the scheduling server (7). The scheduling server (7) computes the schedule information and transmits the schedule information to the switches (5, 6, 8, and 9) and the transmitting source and destination terminals (4 and 13). The switches (5, 6, 8, and 9) manage the real-time transmissions and receptions of packets based on the schedule information.
