Abstract: An example method for access network capacity monitoring and planning based on flow characteristics in a network environment is provided and includes receiving, at a server in a first network, a request from a client at a second network for accommodating flow characteristics for a flow through the first network between the client and a remote destination, accommodating the flow characteristics if the request can be fulfilled with available network resources allocated to the client by the first network, measuring the flow at the first network between the client and the remote destination, exporting flow details including flow measurements and the requested flow characteristics to a flow collector, and denying the request if the flow collector determines that the flow measurements do not match the requested flow characteristics. In some embodiments, the flow measurements include fine-grain flow measurements, wherein the method further comprises receiving a request for the fine-grain flow measurements.
