<p>The invention relates to a system for managing internet connections routed across an internet communications network comprising two or more domains (21 to 23). Each domain (21 to 23) is provided with a domain manager (12) assigned thereto for managing the service quality of internet connections within the particular domain (22) and with one or more domain boundary controller(s) (41, 42) for monitoring the domain boundary of the particular domain (22). To assure the service quality of internet connections, the domain manager (12) communicates with the domain boundary controllers (41, 42) of the particular domain (22) to which it is assigned and, by transferring service parameters, authorises these domain boundary controllers (41, 42) to establish and maintain special internet connections under special conditions across the boundary of the domain (22) into the domain. The domain boundary controllers (41, 42) monitor the establishment of internet connections across the boundary of their particular domain (22) into their particular domain and permit the establishment and maintenance of internet connections across the boundary of their domain (22) into their domain only for those special internet connections, and under those special conditions, for they have been authorised by the domain manager (12) assigned to their domain (22). <IMAGE></p> |
