the link-level scheduler SHOULD control how much link bandwidth is
assigned to each class at any instant. The scheduler should assign
bandwidth to a class according to the bandwidth reserved for the sum
of all flows which currently have packets assigned to the class. Note
that in the example of Section 3.3, when packets from flows A and E
were assigned to the same class (class 1), the scheduler assigned
more bandwidth to class 1, reflecting the fact that it was carrying
traffic from reservations totaling 20kbit/s while the other classes
were carrying only 10kbit/s.

5. Security Considerations
General security considerations for MLPPP and PPP links are addressed
in RFC 1990 [12] and RFC 1661 [13], respectively. Security
considerations relevant to RSVP, used as the signaling protocol for
integrated services, are discussed in RFC 2209 [14].
A specific security consideration relevant to providing quality of
service over PPP links appears when relying on either observed or
theoretical average packet expansion during admission control due to
bit- or byte-stuffing. Implementations based on these packet-
expansion values contain a potential vulnerability to denial of
service attacks. An adversary could intentionally send traffic that
will result in worst case bit- or byte stuffing packet expansion.
This in turn could result in quality of service guarantees not being
met for other flows due to overly permissive admission control. This
potential denial of service attack argues strongly for using a worst
case expansion factor in admission control calculations, even for
controlled load service.
Beyond the considerations documented above, this document introduces
no new security issues on top of those discussed in the companion
ISSLL documents [1], [2] and [3] and AVT document [4]. Any use of
these service mappings assumes that all requests for service are
authenticated appropriately.

Appendix A. Admission Control Considerations for POTS Modems
The protocols used in current implementations of POTS modems can
exhibit significant changes in link rate and delay over the duration
of a connection. Admission control and link scheduling algorithms
used with these devices MUST be prepared to compensate for this
variability in order to provide a robust implementation of integrated
services.
Link rate on POTS modems is typically reported at connection time.
This value may change over the duration of the connection. The v.34
protocol, used in most POTS modems, is adaptive to link conditions,
and is able to recalibrate transmission rate multiple times over the
duration of a connection. Typically this will result in a small
(~10%) increase in transmission rate over the initial connection
within the first minute of a call. It is important to note, however,
that other results are possible as well, including decreases in
available bandwidth. Admission control algorithms MUST take such
changes into consideration as they occur, and implementations MUST be
able to gracefully handle the pathological case where link rate
actually drops below the currently reserved capacity of a link.
Delay experienced by traffic over POTS modems can vary significantly
over time. Unlike link rate, the delay often does not converge to a
stable value. The v.42 protocol is used in most POTS modems to
provide link-layer reliability. This reliability, which is
implemented via retransmission, can cause frames to experience
significant delays. Retransmissions also implicitly steal link
bandwidth from other traffic. These delays and reductions in link
bandwidth make it extremely difficult to honor a guaranteed service
reservation. On a link that is actually lightly or moderately loaded,
a controlled load service can to some extent accept such events as
part of the behavior of a lightly loaded link. Unfortunately, as
actual link utilization increases, v.42 retransmissions have the
potential of stealing larger and larger fractions of available link
bandwidth; making even controlled load service difficult to offer at
high link utilization when retransmissions occur.
