Platform SDK: Quality of Service |
Use of the SERVICETYPE_NO_TRAFFIC service type indicates (or specifies) that no QOS services are required in the associated direction. For example, if the SendingFlowspec specifies SERVICETYPE_NOTRAFFIC, then traffic sent on the specified connection would not receive QOS service provisions. In other words, QOS signaling for sent data would be disabled.
This service type is useful when QOS service guarantees are only required in one direction (and therefore not required in the opposite direction). The SERVICETYPE_NOTRAFFIC service type is also useful when QOS service provisions are no longer required in a specific direction, in which case the SERVICETYPE_NOTRAFFIC service type can be used in conjunction with the SERVICETYPE_NOCHANGE service type to disable QOS signaling in one direction, and leave the other direction's QOS signaling unchanged.
