Abstract

An approach is provided in which an information handling system establishes a resource reservation protocol (RSVP) session corresponding to a flow between a first entity and a second entity operating within a computer environment that implements a network virtualization overlay protocol. Once the RSVP session is established, the information handling system encapsulates data packets of the flow based on the network virtualization overlay protocol and, in turn, sends the encapsulated data packet over the computer network with a quality of service (QoS) assurance level that is based on the established RSVP session.
