Another alternative would be for the PDP to install all policies with
only one being active. Then, when
the active context should change the PDP would send a Unsolicited DEC (with the
Install command and the Handle of the correct “Time-of-day” request-state) and
only one instance of the frwkPibIncarnation class with the Active attribute set
to True.

Subject: Re: policy time period
condition in diffserv PIB
The PDP takes
care of scheduling the rules and NOT the PEP.
The PDP can send an unsolicited COPS DEC message with 'install' when the
scheduling
period starts. Similarly it sends an unsolicited COPS DEC message
with 'remove' when
the period ends.

Hi,The
draft-ietf-diffserv-pib-03.txt does not seem to contain policy time
period condition as specified in PCIM.How can a
PDP push a set of policies and mandate that the policies should be active
only during the Time Period as specified in the
policies?( For example certain set policies are to be active between 9:00 to
6:00, how can this time information of the policy be fitted into the PIB ?) Regards,Saurabh Kapoor
