Light-weight Flow Admission Protocol, LFAP, allows an external Flow
Admission Service (FAS) to manage flow admission at the switch,
allowing flexible Flow Admission Services to be deployed by a vendor
or customer without changes to, or undue burden on, the switch.
Specifically, this document specifies the protocol between the switch
Connection Control Entity (CCE) and the external FAS.
