Why does 7.2.2.1/H.225.0v2 say that the extension bit of octet 4 in bearer capabilities indicates whether the information-transfer-rate field is set to multirate? Isn't this redundant?
It caused me a problem at the last interop, because someone sent a Setup message with the extension bit indicating that it _was not_ multirate and the rate field indicating that it _was_ multirate. My EP looked at the extension bit instead of the rate field--they should agree, shouldn't they?--and assumed that octet 4.1 was not present when in fact it was. This caused a decode error decoding what it thought was octet 5 but was in fact octet 4.1. I have changed the code so that it now looks at the rate field but was just wondering if anyone had a better understanding of this situation.
