Table 41. Call Flow Showing How Additional Quota is Obtained
During network entry, a NAS sends an Access-Request packet to the HCSN. If the NAS supports a PPC, the NAS includes
the PPAC attributes, indicating it prepaid capabilities.
If the subscriber session is a prepaid session, the PPS (HAAA) assigns the initial prepaid quota(s) by including one or more
PPAQ attributes in the Access-Accept packet.
Once the threshold for the quota(s) is reached, the PPC sends an Authorize-Only Access-Request to request additional
quota. The request contains one or more PPAQs that indicate which quota(s) need to be replenished to the PPS.
