Traffic Flow Templates
Each dedicated streaming connection is associated with a Traffic Flow Template (TFT). A TFT,
also called an Application Template, assigns a priority to a selected type of traffic in order to
maximize performance.
BGAN LaunchPad supports the following pre-configured TFTs, any one of which can be selected
when you configure a dedicated streaming connection to ensure that the defined traffic has its
own dedicated connection:
FTP
•
• QuickLink
QuickTime
•
Real Media
•
• Streambox
WinMedia
•
If you want to define your own TFT for another application, contact your Service Provider for
assistance.
To open a dedicated streaming connection:
a. Select the Data tab in BGAN LaunchPad.
In this scenario, you have set up a dedicated streaming connection for Win Media. The
Standard connection is currently open.
b. Select the required dedicated streaming connection, for example Win Media. The following
message is displayed, asking you to confirm that you want to open a dedicated connection in
addition to your current connection:
c. Click on OK. The new data connection opens and the following screen is displayed:
The Standard and the Win Media connections are both open. All traffic other than Win Media data
continues to use the standard connection.
You can open up to 10 dedicated streaming connections in addition to your default connection.
