Abstract
In the present invention, before data transmission, a “connection”, between a requesting end and a destination end, identified by a traffic flow identifier (FID) is established or modified through traffic flow management. Therefore, when the requesting end and the destination end perform data transmission on the traffic flow, the FID alone can sufficiently serve as the identifier, so as to save the need of carrying the destination end identifier in each exchanged data packet, thereby simplifying the operation.
