1. A computing system comprising:
storage media; and
processing circuitry in communication with the storage media, the processing circuitry configured to:
determine a radio-level Quality of Service (QoS) requirement for a data flow in a mobile network;
select, based on a mapping of the radio-level QoS requirement for the data flow in the mobile network to transport-level QoS capabilities of one or more transport channels in a transport network between a first node and a second node of a radio access network (RAN) of the mobile network or a core network of the mobile network, a first transport channel of the one or more transport channels; and
send information to the second node, the information comprising data identifying the data flow and data identifying the first transport channel, the information causing the second node to use the first transport channel when sending packets of the data flow to the first node.
