An internet service node (ISN) enabling the provision of desired service
policies to each subscriber. The desired service policies for each
subscriber are provided as an input. The desired service policies are
translated into processing rules. Each processing rule contains a
classifier and associated action. A classifier generally identifies the
application data flows to which the action may be applied to provide the
desired service policies. The processing rules may be generated
dynamically to implement the specified service policies for each
subscriber. Each data bit group may be classified to associate with a
subscriber and only the processing rules corresponding to the subscriber
may be applied to the data bit group to provide the desired services.
