Step 2 In the logical inventory window, choose Logical Inventory > Context > Mobile > APN
Container >APN.
Step 3 Expand the APN node. The following list of characteristics configured for the APN are displayed:
• Charging Characteristics—Charging characteristics configured on the APN for different
subscribers.
• DHCP—Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) parameter configured, if the APN supports
dynamic address assignment for PDP contexts.
• GSM-QoS—Represents the negotiated QoS attribute reliability class based on the configuration
provided for service data unit (SDU) error ratio and residual bit error rate (BER) attributes in the
APN.
• IP Parameters—Represents the APN parameters related to IP.
• IPv6—Represents IPv6 configurations and related services for the APN.
• Mediation Device—Represents the mediation device used by the APN for communication with the

Burst Size Auto
Readjust Duration
The burst size readjustment duration in seconds. This parameter indicates the
number of seconds that the dynamic burst size calculation will last for. This
allows the traffic to be throttled at the negotiated rates.
Peak Burst Size (bytes) The peak burst size allowed, in bytes, for the uplink direction and QoS class.
Guaranteed Burst Size
(bytes)
The guaranteed burst size allowed, in bytes, for the uplink direction and QoS
class.
Exceed Action The action to be taken on packets that exceed the committed data rate, but do
not violate the peak data rate. The action could be one of the following:
• Drop
• Lower IP Precedence
• Transmit
Violate Action The action to be taken on packets that exceed both committed and peak data
rates. The action could be one of the following:
• Drop
• Lower IP Precedence
• Shape
• Transmit
