CA 2010288

The method embodying the invention authorizes communication bit rate reservations in a packet switching network. According to the method, a new communication is only accepted by the network if the communication does not exceed a maximum bit rate flowable by the switches of the network. A packet switch in the network comprises a bit rate reservation device for memorizing bit rate informations that are representative of total bit rates flowed by the switch and for processing said informations as a function of data carried by service packets. The bit rate reservation device mainly comprises registers respectively associated with multiplex ways of the switch for memorizing the bit rate informations, an adder for incrementing and decrementing the bit rate informations as a function of service packet data, and a comparator for detecting overstepping of the maximum flowable bit rate.
