High speed networks support use of dedicated resources through Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP). With RSVP, the network resources are reserved and released thereby providing a mechanism to achieve a good quality of service (QoS). The requests to reserve a path are transmitted in the network b/w the data senders and receivers. The reservation request is then accepted depending upon the availability of resources. With dedicated resources for a data flow, the network performance improves especially for the communication sensitive to delay. This paper provides an analysis of the RSVP protocol used in peer-to-peer (P2P) networks where each system works simultaneously as a client and a server. We perform experimentation for Voice and Video Conferencing applications incorporated in various scenarios implemented using OPNET IT Guru Academic Edition v 9.1. Our experimentation results show that the RSVP protocol reduces the packet end-to-end delay, however, the impact is dependent upon the amount of data being transmitted along the reservation path.
