4.3.3 Service
Flows
Click
Service Flows
in the menu (left side of screen) to view, add and delete the service
flows. Service flows provide the ability to set up multiple connections to each subscriber
in a sector. Separate service flows are required for uplink and downlink traffic, where
each service flow is assigned a unique service level category and separate QoS settings.
Service flows can be enabled or disabled using this display. A service flow is not fully
activated until at least one classifier is assigned.
Default UL/DL Service Flows
Default UL/DL service flows are created automatically for each registered subscriber.
These service flows are used to pass all traffic not matching any user-defined service
flow (such as broadcast ARP) between the base station and subscribers. The default
service flow capacity is 64 Kbps DL (shared for all subscribers in the sector) and limited
to 8 Kbps UL for each subscriber. Packets are dropped for all UL/DL traffic exceeding
these rates.
