(ReSerVation Protocol) A communications protocol that signals a router to reserve bandwidth for real time transmission. RSVP is designed to clear a path for audio and video traffic, eliminating annoying skips and hesitations. It has been sanctioned by the IETF, because audio and video traffic is constantly increasing on the Internet. See RTP and COPS.

- Deploying RSVP in Multiple Security Domains Networks: Securing Application Quality of Service
- This white paper brings out a possible solution for deploying Resource Reservation Protocol RSVP admission control within a multiple security domains network. Multiple security domains networks, as they are deployed today, often lack strict QoS guarantees, deterministic performance, application-aware and user-aware policy enforcement, and efficient bandwidth utilization. RSVP-based admission control...
