Srini,

Although there is no procedure defined in the the back of H.245 for LogChanRate, as there are for other dialogues, such as OpenLogChan and CloseLogChan, use them as a model. The release message basically tells the remote EP to forget about any request it may have received previously.

Here's how it goes. One sends LogChanRateReq and starts a timer (use the other procedures as a guide for timer values, I suppose). When a response is received for it, one kills the timer; if a response is not received before the the timer "times out," one sends LogChanRateRelease to tell the remote EP that if it received the previous request, it should now ignore it.

Hi All,

H.245V5 introduces new logical channel bit rate change messages. One of the message is LogicalChannelRateRelease. The section B.1.2.4 says the following.

B.1.2.4 Logical Channel Rate Release This is sent in the case of a timeout.

My question is which timer should be used for the above indicated purpose? There are no new timers added to H.245V5.
