CAC CONNECTION ADMISSION CONTROL Set of network actions and permissions in a network communication.

. Identifies where the connection is established on the basis of network ability. This design set of network action is imitated during the call setup or when calls are reconnected. Connection admission control [CAC] is based on simple algorithm which is used to discernment the incoming or outgoing network traffic. Connection admission control [CAC] is also used to desire whether traffic should be allowed or rejected by a specific traffic. Connection admission control [CAC] is most often used in ATM networks. Connection admission control [CAC] is also called as Call admission control [CAC]. In connection oriented network connection admission control [CAC] plays an important role for congestion control. The basic role of connection admission control [CAC] in connection oriented network is to desire whether there are free system resources available before establishing a new connection. An end to end connection is only established when the availability of free resources is assured. CALL ADMISSION CONTROL CAC Call admission control perform the following two operation while establishing a connection: 1. It establishes a connection when resources are free and available. 2. If the connection is rejected in the absence of free or available resources, the identification is sent back to the originator or the requestor of the connection. The following factors are to be considered while establishing and requesting a connection The type of service required. Traffic parameters. Both directions request their required QOS (quality of service) which is also considered when establishing a connection.

Connection admission control [CAC] Network access the connection only if it can complete resources in both direction that satisfy a given connection request: 1. Service category 2. Connection traffic description 3. Quality of service 4. CLP (Cell Loss Priority) When the connection as to be requested, a traffic contract is awarded to the user.

TRAFFIC CONTRACT Traffic contract will have peak cell rate and maximum cell rate.
