+A Regression test for ACE QoS features.
+---------------------------------------
+
+This test implements a simple Receiver-Sender program that ensures
+Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees on the underlying network before
+transmitting data. The program tests the ACE QoS APIs/features. The
+test works for Winsock2 APIs on Win2K as well as RAPI on Solaris.
+
+In addition it dynamically changes the receiver flow spec which in
+turn changes the RESV messages sent.
+
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+WIN2K :
+
+Build Requirements :
+--------------------
+1. Two Win2K machines.
+2. June98 Platform SDK or later.
+3. Link with ws2_32.lib
+
+The test consists of a server (which is the receiver) and a client
+ (which is the sender).
+
+ The receiver is started first (though it is not mandatory) as :
+
+ server -m merengue.cs.wustl.edu:9091
+
+ -m: specifies the multicast session address that both client and
+ server subscribe to for QoS events.
+
+ -p: Protocol to be used. Could be udp or tcp. Default is udp.
+
+ -P: Sender source port. If not specified, DEFAULT_SOURCE_SENDER_PORT
+ (10001) will be used.
+
+ -h: Displays the help on various options.
+
+The sample Sender is started next as :
+
+ client -m merengue.cs.wustl.edu:9091 -P 10004
+
+ -m: specifies the multicast session address that both client and
+ server subscribe to for QoS events.
+
+ -n: Option to be used by senders only to specify the destination
+ address. This option is overriden if a multicast address is also
+ specified through the -m option.
+
+ -p: Protocol to be used. Could be udp or tcp. Default is udp.
+
+ -P: Sender source port. If not specified, DEFAULT_SOURCE_SENDER_PORT
+ (10001) will be used.
+
+ -h: Displays the help on various options.
+
+On Win2K the user must have administrative access to the machine to
+run this program. It seems to be a pre-requisite to opening QoS
+sockets.
+
+The sender and receiver should be run on different Win2K machines.
+
+The test demonstrates how to GQOS enable an application using the ACE QoS APIs.
+It concentrates on the use of various ACE QoS APIs and their correctness.

+
+RAPI :
+
+0. The $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU should be the
+following :
+
+include /project/doc/vishal/ACE_wrappers/include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU
+PLATFORM_RAPI_CPPFLAGS += -I/project/doc/vishal/rapi/rel4.2a4/rsvpd/
+PLATFORM_RAPI_LIBS += -lrsvp
+PLATFORM_RAPI_LDFLAGS += -L/project/doc/vishal/rapi/rel4.2a4/rsvpd/
+
+assuming that RAPI library is installed in /project/doc/vishal/rapi/rel4.2a4/
+
+1. Compile ACE with
+
+ make rapi=1 static_libs_only=1
+
+ Static library option is used because the RAPI library that we have
+ does not compile as a shared object.
+
+2. Run the RSVP Daemon on two machines: (merengue.cs and macarena.cs)
+
+ /project/doc/vishal/rapi/rel4.2a4/rsvpd/rsvpd -D
+
+ The current version of the daemon comes with an inbuilt rtap
+ application to test the various reservation commands and RAPI APIs.
+
+ Typical values for rtap would be :
+
+ sender merengue/5000 [ t 2000000 100000 2000000 512 1024 ]
+ reserve wf [ cl 4000000 200000 4000000 256 2024 ]
+
+
+
+ From ACE:
+ dest udp macarena/5000
+ sender ace/5000 [ t 2000000 100000 2000000 512 1024 ]
+ sender macarena/5022 [ t 2000000 100000 2000000 512 1024 ]
+ sender beguine/6000 [ t 2000000 100000 2000000 512 1024 ]
+
+ From Macarena:
+ wait until done with ACE
+ dest udp macarena/5000 <session name>
+ reserve wf [ cl 2000000 100000 2000000 512 1024 ]
+
+
+
+3. If RTAP runs fine and the daemons show the debug messages about
+ RESV, PATH and other RSVP messages, run the QoS example, making sure
+ that rtap session is released on both machines.
