Abstract

   This document describes mappings of IETF Integrated Services over
   LANs built from IEEE 802 network segments which may be interconnected
   by IEEE 802.1D MAC Bridges (switches).  It describes parameter
   mappings for supporting Controlled Load and Guaranteed Service using
   the inherent capabilities of relevant IEEE 802 technologies and, in
   particular, 802.1D-1998 queuing features in switches.

   These mappings are one component of the Integrated Services over IEEE
   802 LANs framework.
