Figure 104 demonstrates a typical "Best Effort" type of Client Profile. Consider a packet that is flowing in
the downlink direction (i.e. Base Station to Subscriber CPE). The same concept applies in the uplink
direction.
• A packet flow from the network and into the Base Station. It is destined for the Subscriber CPE.
• The packet is then processed by the Classifiers rules that have been defined. In this example these
are the Downlink Packet Classifier.
• If the packet is subject to the Classifier rule, then it is processed and classified as defined by that
rule. Packets that are not subject to the rule are then identified as a Non-Classified Packet.
• The Non-Classified Packets are then passed out of the Base Station and are now subject to the
relevant Service Flow definitions. In this example this would be Best Effort.

Figure 98 demonstrates a more complex but still typical "Voice and Data" type of application.
• In this example these is a VoIP Packet Classifier defined. This has been associated to an eRTPS
Service Flow. Non-Classified packets have been set to a Best Effort Service Flow.
• Any packet that enters from the Network will be tested against the Classifier rules. A VoIP packet
will therefore be transmitted downlink via eRTPS and everything else via Best Effort.
