Abstract
In a bandwidth control service management apparatus of a network operated by a network offerer and a customer, an available bandwidth of a premium bandwidth control service demand, accepted from the customer, with a higher priority than a regular bandwidth control service of best effort type, is compared with an applied threshold value, accepted from a network offerer through a network interfaceto determine an availability of the premium bandwidth control service. The result is notified to the customer through the customer interface, and the serviceable bandwidth manageris provided which demands that the network should secure a bandwidth in order that the customer who has received the notification of a service permission can start the premium bandwidth control service when the premium bandwidth control service is determined to be available. This serviceable bandwidth managernotifies a present applied threshold value in response to a collection demand by the network offerer, and adopting a changed applied threshold value for the determination when the network offerer has changed the applied threshold value.
