1. A method, comprising:
- establishing a session for a mobile node;
evaluating a plurality of label switched paths (LSPs) in response to the mobile node experiencing a handoff between a source packet data serving node (SPDSN) and a target PDSN (TPDSN); and
provisioning a sub-tunnel atop a first tunnel, which is associated with a selected label switched path, wherein the selected label switched path is associated with a high priority type of data having a low latency characteristic.

Abstract
An example method is provided and includes establishing a session for a mobile node, and evaluating a plurality of label switched paths (LSPs) in response to the mobile node experiencing a handoff between a source packet data serving node (SPDSN) and a target PDSN (TPDSN). The method can also include provisioning a sub-tunnel with a first tunnel, which is associated with a selected label switched path. The selected label switched path is associated with a high priority type of data having a low latency characteristic.
