Abstract
Apparatus, and an associated method, for negotiating an LLC frame size for a UMA/GAN network. A calculator, embodied at a mobile station, calculates an optimal frame size, i.e., an N201-U value. A negotiation initiator initiates a frame size negotiation with a network entity. The frame size negotiation utilizes the calculated optimal frame size. And, a frame size is allocated responsive to the negotiation. The allocated frame size is used in the formation of user data packets that are constrained to be of sizes that are close to the allocated N201-U value, defined at the LLC layer.
