Abstract
A method for requesting and providing on-demand priority to internet protocol (IP) flows is disclosed. A request to invoke transmission priority is received. Whether to mark a priority invocation packet for an IP flow with a priority Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) marking is determined The priority invocation packet is marked based on the determination and sent. A priority invocation packet for an IP flow that has a priority DSCP marking is received from a wireless device. The priority invocation packet is sent to its destination. Transmission priority is provided to IP flows received from the wireless device or sent to the wireless device for a period of time or until an indication of failed authorization is received.
