/* Some introduction into NS:  NS is used typically on top of frame relay,
 * but in the ip.access world it is encapsulated in UDP packets.  It serves
 * as an intermediate shim betwen BSSGP and the underlying medium.  It doesn't
 * do much, apart from providing congestion notification and status indication.
 *
 * Terms:
 * 	NS		Network Service
 *	NSVC		NS Virtual Connection
 *	NSEI		NS Entity Identifier
 *	NSVL		NS Virtual Link
 *	NSVLI		NS Virtual Link Identifier
 *	BVC		BSSGP Virtual Connection
 *	BVCI		BSSGP Virtual Connection Identifier
 *	NSVCG		NS Virtual Connection Goup
 *	Blocked		NS-VC cannot be used for user traffic
 *	Alive		Ability of a NS-VC to provide communication
 *
 *  There can be multiple BSSGP virtual connections over one (group of) NSVC's.  BSSGP will
 * therefore identify the BSSGP virtual connection by a BVCI passed down to NS.
 * NS then has to firgure out which NSVC's are responsible for this BVCI.
 * Those mappings are administratively configured.
