Re: [STDS-802-16] SF creation
Thanks for the feedback. What I want to know is how do the MAC know that it
is now time to create a new service flow and what will be its QoS
parameters. For example MAC has to do a VoIP, who will tell it that now send
the DSA message and the DSA message should have these SF Parameters. Pre
provisioned service flows are not the problem, their creation is quite clear
but the dynamic service flow creation is a bit ambigous,
Thanks,
Saba
