A network component for classifying at least one IP flow for efficient quality of service realization in a network, where in one embodiment the network component includes a unit for detecting at least one IP flow from at least one IP packet. Upon detection of the at least one IP flow, the unit obtains predefined information from the at least one IP packet to determine a quality of service requirement that is associated with the at least one IP packet. The unit creates at least one other IP flow by multiplexing a plurality of IP packets with the same quality of service requirement into the other IP flow or demultiplexing the plurality of IP packets with different quality of service requirements into other IP flows, each of the other IP flows having a different quality of service requirement.
