Abstract
We propose a new Per Hop Behavior (PHB) for differentiated services in IP networks. In this PHB, each network subscriber (or flow) receives a bandwidth allocation proportional to the subscribed information rate. This new PHB is called 'Proportional Forwarding PHB' or PF PHB. The marking mechanism at the source or ingress router and the queuing and discard behavior at core routers are clearly described.
