Abstract
An apparatus and a method for providing a QoS for a multi protocol label switching (MPLS) traffic are provided. According to the apparatus and the method, a label and an experimental (EXP) are extracted from an MPLS packet input to an MPLS network system, and then applied to a predetermined hash function to generate at least one hash value. Also, a QoS policy is applied to an MPLS session, and the MPLS packet is forwarded. Therefore, the QoS for transmitting the MPLS packet input to the MPLS network system can be ensured.
