Abstract:	In the last few years a number of applications have emerged that can benefit from networklayer signaling (i.e., the installation, maintenance, and removal of control state in network elements). These applications include path-coupled and path-decoupled quality of service management and resource allocation, as well as network debugging, NAT, and firewall control. These applications call for an extensible and securable signaling protocol. This article discusses some of the recent standardization efforts in the IETF for a new extensible IP signaling protocol suite (NSIS). We describe the design of the NSIS protocol suite, and compare it with RSVP, the current Internet QoS signaling protocol.
