Wrong packing of attributes?

If you are working on a VPWS service flow in an Alvarion 4-Motion base
station you will have to do some steps to fix the NAS.  

 

1.        Update to the latest version for 2.2

2.       Define the R3 attributes in a separate dictionary.

3.       Update the main dictionary.wimax to make sure all of the Alvarion
WiMAX- attributes are added to that dictionary

4.       Let me know any success as I have yet to get the NAS to properly
accept the service flow.

 

Let me know if you need any dictionary files for that NAS.

 

David

I'm on a bit of a limb here, but I think I might have found a bug. Far from
sure though, so please don't kill me if I'm wrong.

The problem here though, is that the following attributes:
WiMAX-QoS-Id = 1
        01 03  01  
WiMAX-Schedule-Type = Best-Effort
        04 03  02 
WiMAX-Traffic-Priority = 1
        05 03  01 
WiMAX-Maximum-Sustained-Traffic-Rate = 2000000

Should really be packed into a WiMAX-QoS-Descriptor,as far as I can see?
Cut'n'paste from Dictionary:

ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-QoS-Descriptor                    29      tlv
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-QoS-Id                            29.1    byte
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Global-Service-Class-Name         29.2    string # 6
octets
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Service-Class-Name                29.3    string
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Schedule-Type                     29.4    byte
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Traffic-Priority                  29.5    byte
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Maximum-Sustained-Traffic-Rate    29.6    integer
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Minimum-Reserved-Traffic-Rate     29.7    integer
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Maximum-Traffic-Burst             29.8    integer
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Tolerated-Jitter                  29.9    integer
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Maximum-Latency                   29.10   integer
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Reduced-Resources-Code            29.11   byte
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Media-Flow-Type                   29.12   byte
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Unsolicited-Grant-Interval        29.13   short
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-SDU-Size                          29.14   short
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Unsolicited-Polling-Interval      29.15   short
ATTRIBUTE       WiMAX-Media-Flow-Description-SDP        29.16   string

And should most definately *not* be included in the
WiMAX-Packet-Flow-Descriptor.

Am I messing up something here, or could there be a bug in the encoder?
