Abstract
A system and method for achieving a comparable quality of service for each of the receivers of a multicast transmission incorporating a priority-based quality of service is provided. Packet acceptance criteria established at each individual connection of a network node is overridden to provide a collective packet acceptance criteria for each packet of a multicast transmission targeted for the individual connections. The packet acceptance criteria is collected from each of the individual connections in the network node that are targeted for the multicast transmission. A multicast packet priority is calculated for each of the packets associated with the multicast transmission based on an aggregate analysis of the packet acceptance criteria of each of the individual connections. Each of the packets associated with the multicast transmission is collectively accepted or discarded based on the calculated multicast packet priority.
