Abstract
The present invention discloses a method and policy enforcement functional entity (PE-FE) for implementing quality of service (QoS) request information. The method comprises the following steps: a PE-FE sends a policy decision functional entity (PD-FE) a QoS request message including predetermined parameters which are used to represent the QoS request information of the transport layer. The technical solutions mentioned above enable the QoS request information of the transport layer to be accurately represented, and implement the resource request process in the pull mode.
Claims8
A method for implementing quality of service (QoS) request information, comprising:
- a policy enforcement functional entity (PE-FE) sending a policy decision functional entity (PD-FE) a QoS request message in a form of a Credit Control Request (CCR) command including one or more Traffic-Information attribute-value pairs (AVPs);
- wherein said each Traffic-Information AVP consists of a group of predetermined parameters, and said each group of the predetermined parameters are used to represent the QoS request information of the transport layer for a respective service, and
- wherein said each group of the predetermined parameters include following information:
- flow description information, flow status information, quality of service information, user name information, Layer 2 address information, IP address information, logical access address information, and physical access address information.
A packet-to-packet gateway for policy enforcement, comprising:
- a processor, and
- a memory, comprising instructions when executed by the processor, cause the processor to send a QoS request message in a form of a Credit Control Request (CCR) command which includes one or more Traffic-Information attribute-value pairs (AVPs) to a PD-FE,
- wherein said each Traffic-Information AVP consists of a group of predetermined parameters, and said each group of the predetermined parameters are used to represent the QoS request information of the transport layer for a respective service, and
- wherein said each group of the predetermined parameters include following information:
- flow description information, flow status information, quality of service information, user name information, Layer 2 address information, IP address information, logical access address information, and physical access address information.
