Abstract
Route discovery for an end-to-end path in a network is performed for a flow. A path is attempted to be discovered that satisfies QoS constraints for multiple metrics for the flow. The route discovery includes determining whether a path request for a path satisfying the QoS constraints is feasible, infeasible or undecideable based on information in a local QoS table. If the path request is determined to be undecideable, route discovery is performed with neighbors.
