Abstract

A system and method for providing service in a network having a wireless component is disclosed. The system and method comprise receiving a request for a dynamic address from a user node connected to a subscriber station having a convergence sub-layer, providing the dynamic address to the user node, associating the dynamic address with a service flow associated with the subscriber station, and sending data addressed to the dynamic address through the service flow. The dynamic address is based on a subscriber identifier associated with the subscriber station and a client identifier associated with the user node.
