A link-sharing classification hierarchy is described, characterizing network traffic at a high level both to allow measurements of network traffic to be aggregated according classifications in the hierarchy and to describe a policy for network quality of service. Policy templates allow network quality-of-service policies to be re-used across multiple links. Policy alarms can be raised by quality-of-service devices when a policy is violated. An XML API allows applications to manage a central repository of policies.
