Cable Forum - View Single Post - Traffic managed on downstream not upstream

VM moved all cable modems that were capable of supporting D1.1 working onto service flows and therefore that changed the way that STM worked.

So the enforcement rules have not been changed - It is just the way that the penalty is applied that has changed.

Design position for QoS based STM was bi-directional.

It is far more difficult to achieve the same with Service Flows so uni-directional put in place.

It has not been done recently - It has always been that way on the 10Ks and subsequently the BSRs - more recently the VXRs had 1.1 Service Flows applied so that may have been more noticable.

p.s. How are you getting on with Application Based Traffic Management?
