The present invention faces identifying resource allocation results when resource request and modifications occur in fast succession, and provides for associating at an AF each media component description transmitted to a PCRF with a media component instance identifier, associating at the PCRF each media component instance identifier with rule instance identifiers for control rules determined for each media component description, and associating at a PCEF each rule instance identifier with a control rule and with a bearer for which the control rule is to be installed or modified. Upon obtaining a resource allocation result for a bearer at the PCEF, determining and transmitting to the PCRF the rule instance identifier associated with the bearer and an affected control rule, determining and transmitting from the PCRF to the AF a media component instance identifier associated with the received rule instance identifier for the affected control rule, and identifying at the AF the media component description associated with the received media component instance identifier and for which the received resource allocation result applies.
