Dear Mr. Okubo,
this is not significant. The parameter identifier space has strictly local context within the particular generic capability, the only purpose is to "label" the parameters unambiguously. There is no requirement to start with a certain value or to use only adjacent numbers (a capability could, for example, choose identifiers 10, 20, 30; then 0, 1, 2 etc. would not be valid identifiers for this capability).
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards, Ernst Horvath

Dear H.245 generic capability experts,
TTC, Japan, is now updating H.323 system standards. One apparent question raised is about the generic capability parameter numbering in H.245. The parameter identifier value of Annex Q "Generic Capability for Nx64K Circuit Relay over IP" starts with 1, but that of other capabilities starts with 0. Does this matter? Or the numbering does not matter once given?
