Francois, Paul, Bob and others,
Please
refer to section 6.1.2 of the most recent H.323 Implementers Guide (TD-031
PLEN) of the Brazil meeting. This IG section clarified previous
inconsistencies in H.323 sections 7.8.2.1, 7.8.3.1 and 7.8.4.1 compared to
H.225.0. I.e. the mentioned three H.323 sections have been updated for
clarification on PNP number usage.
Regards,

Hi,
I just realize a
contradiction in H.323v4 and H.225.0v4 concerning the encoding of "private
telephone numbers" (i.e., the type we all use at work):
- H.225.0v4 says
that "Private telephone numbers" shall be encoded in the UUIE as private
numbers, and NOT in the Q.931 information elements (Calling party IE, etc.).
Let's call this the "Bob method". See Table 18/H.225.0 Note 1.
- H.323v4 says that
the Q.931 information element is used for "telephone numbers", and that the
UUIE is used for things that are not telephone numbers. Let's call this the
"Glenn method". See H.323v4/7.8.2.1 and 7.8.2.2.
There is no
conflict with both method for "public" telephone number, but there is a
conflict for "private" telephone numbers.
Which method is
right, Bob's or Glenn's?
