Abstract
In some implementations, a network device may receive a control packet. The network device may determine a priority corresponding to a subscriber state of a client device associated with the control packet. The network device may assign the priority to the control packet. The network device may transmit the control packet.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a network device, a control packet;
- determining, by the network device, a priority corresponding to a subscriber state of a client device that sends or receives the control packet;
- assigning, by the network device, the priority to the control packet;
- encapsulating, by the network device and without altering a quality of service flow identifier or a differentiated services code point value, the control packet in a header that includes an indication of the assigned priority;
- and
- transmitting, by the network device, the control packet.
3 more elements
A network device, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors to:
- receive a control packet;
- determine a priority corresponding to a subscriber state of a client device that sends or receives the control packet;
- assign the priority to the control packet;
- encapsulate the control packet in a header that includes an indication of the assigned priority;
- and
- transmit the control packet.
6 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a network device, cause the network device to:
- receive a control packet;
- determine a priority corresponding to a subscriber state of a client device that sends or receives the control packet;
- assign the priority to the control packet;
- encapsulate the control packet in a header that includes an indication of the assigned priority;
- and
- transmit the control packet.
