[0032] Adding new data field 332 to a data unit may be accomplished in any suitable or desired manner. For example, a given communication protocol may be modified in the following manner: an additional field of the above-mentioned type is defined at an appropriate position in a data unit of the modified communication protocol. Note, however, that it is not necessary to redefine the protocol in order to implement the concepts of the present invention, since it is equally possible to adapt the network entities applying the present invention to utilize unspecified reserved parts of the underlying communication protocol in data units. If the latter implementation is chosen, only network entities compliant with the invention will see the appropriate parts of the data unit, while compatibility with network entities not compliant with the invention is preserved, since these do not use the newly defined fields. However, it is preferable to indeed adapt a given communication protocol t...
