Limitations on the use of Asymmetric Allocation
For non collocated links, capacity allocation between uplink and downlink traffic is determined
automatically according to actual Ethernet traffic and air interface conditions. Your manual
allocation using this feature “cuts in” during congestion.
Asymmetric Allocation and Collocation
The use of Asymmetric Allocation is limited where the link is collocated. Possible scenarios are
shown in
Table 5-4
. In all cases where Asymmetric Allocation is available, it is static for all
traffic conditions.
The Services and Rates dialog as shown in
Figure 5-16
will be different:
Caution
If you have active collocated links, or if you are uncertain of whether
collocated links provide TDM services do not use this option now. You can
do it at a less disruptive time using the Link Configuration (
Chapter 7
).
