Ok -- I'll keep it simple until we see a need for more elaborate paging timeout
semantics. So, I will actually keep the timeout on gsm_subscriber level for
now, but will gladly change that when reasons to do so come up.
Also, could
someone please explain the 20 slots and "give credit" semantics I
mentioned above?
the ip.access nanoBTS crashed with too much paging, it crashed before it
would send out watermark information that would have allowed us to
throttle/stop paging. So the "slots" is a way to make proprietary equipment
work.
Ok, so it does at most 20 pagings and then waits 5 seconds before firing the
next 20.
BTW, re give_credit(): the meaning of "to give credit to someone" is more like
acknowledging that someone has done something well (Anerkennung geben). That's
why I was unsure about its purpose.
