Traffic provisioning
Only one value is allowed per line of a FIT, the parameter of this 'Value', however,
may be composed of several instances of for example, C-VIDs by using the terms as
defined in the following requirements, for example, by MASKS:
• In IEEE single tagging mode C-VID must be element of S-VID, C-UP must be
element of S-UP, otherwise an empty flow is defined.
• Because in case of IEEE single tagging mode the C-tag and the S-tag are identical,
at a network role port only those C-VID values will be matched which are also
defined as a value to the S-VID of the VPD.
• In general, in PBM it is needed to define as a precondition for classifying
according the IP-TOS byte whether the frames received at the CR port are expected
to have a C-tag or not (except an automatic is build in the HW)
• For a Galnet data unit it is needed in IEEE single tagging mode to define as a
precondition for the FD, if the received frames are expected to have a C-tag or not.
• Uniqueness of the flows defined by a Flow Descriptor in comparison to other Flow
Descriptors is not needed.
