I am guessing that nobody ever noticed the discrepancy between H.225.0 (RAS) and Annex G. From the section you quote (H.225.0, section 7.17)), specifying the sequence number to zero seems to be a bug in the standard, since it defines the sequence number as: RequestSeqNum ::= INTEGER (1..65535) > Regards > Krishna Michael Fortinsky ----------------------------------------------------------------- Senior Program Manager, IP Telephony Group, VocalTec Communications Ltd.

H225.0 RAS/AnnexG related queries
by Krishna Kr Banka 17 Jan '00

17 Jan '00

Hi ..!! I have a few queries regarding H.225.0 RAS/AnnexG: 1. AnnexGCommonInfo does not contain Protocol Identifier. Why is it not required for AnnexG messages? Keeping in view, the possible future versions of AnnexG; how shall a Border Element, on receiving a PDU from some other Border Element know the version of protocol being used by the sender of the PDU? Also, how does the sender ascertain which version of protocol the receiver understands? e.g. if an element is added in version 3 of the protocol, and the recepient can handle upto version 7, how can it be ascertained that the peer entity would understand the information sent/received? 2. Why is Sequence Number from 0 to 65535 for AnnexG, while for RAS its from 1 to 65535 (ASN.1 Message Syntax)? Also, in section 7.17 (Message Not Understood) of H.225.0 it is mentioned that RequestSeqNum shall be zero if the message cannot be decoded; PDU encoding shall fail in such a case. Regards Krishna

I have been puzzled over some of the statements that are made on H.323, I do not recall that there is a limit on the sample frequency on G711 in H.323, the draft claims its fixed to 8000. (Could someone resolve this?) The authors also seem to forget that there is H.323v4 now as well as the FastStart option... so the resulting call flow uses very many message exchanges, this is not necessary is it??? I also have been puzzled by the authors proposing to make a SIP-H.323 gateway whereby the H.323 side looks like an H.323 terminal, in some cases an H.323 gatekeepr seems more appropriate. I have been pleasantly surprised in that the authos basically use the same method of interworking as we have been looking at in the DTS02003 information flows.

H.248 White Contribution
by Chip Sharp 14 Jan '00

14 Jan '00

I cannot find COM 16-107 (draft Recommendation H.248 white contribution for decision) in the Contributions directory of the official SG16 web site (http://www.itu.int/itudoc/itu-t/com16/contr/). I understand that this is on the avc-site, but since it is up for decision I assume the official contribution would show up on the SG16 page.
