A method, apparatus, and computer-readable medium configured for maintaining consistent per-hop packet forwarding behavior among a plurality of network devices in a network within a Differentiated Services (DS) domain are disclosed. In one aspect, a method involves creating and storing a network-wide PHB definition that associates a PHB with a DS code point (DSCP) value, and with a set of parameters that define the bandwidth and buffer resources allocated to the PHBs on all interfaces of network devices within the DS domain. A mapping of each of the PHBs in the network-wide PHB definition to one or more queues of the network devices is determined. Drain size and queue size values are determined for each of the queues to which PHBs are mapped. A mapping of each of the PHBs to a threshold value associated with the queues is determined. Parameters of fragmentation and interleave mechanisms are determined. Network device configuration parameter values based on the mappings, the drain size, and the queue size, etc. are sent to each of the network devices within the DS domain. As a result, consistent PHB is achieved throughout a network using abstract definitions of PHBs.
