messages can create and delete Service Manager subscriber sessions and activate and
deactivate service sessions. For CLI clients, CLI commands create and delete the
subscriber sessions and activate and deactivate service sessions.
A subscriber's service is based on a service definition — service definitions can include
profiles, policies, and quality of service (QoS) settings that define the scope of a service
granted to the subscriber. Service definitions can also specify statistics configurations.
Service Manager provides convenience and flexibility to both service providers and
subscribers.
Providers are able to separate services and access technology and also to eliminate
unprofitable flat-rate billing. They gain the ability to efficiently design, manage, and
deliver services that subscribers want, and then bill subscribers based on connect time,
bandwidth, and the actual service used.
Subscribers benefit by gaining access to multiple simultaneous services—subscribers
can dynamically connect to and disconnect from the services, when they want and for
how long they want. They are billed based on the service type and usage, rather than
being charged a set rate regardless of usage.
Table 138 on page 634 defines terms and acronyms that are used in this discussion of the
