7 PDUs and parameters

24.3223GPPRelease 17Stage 3TSTunnelling of IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) services over restrictive access networks

7.1 PDUs and parameters specific to FTT-IMS protocol

7.1.1 General

The least significant bit of a field is represented by the lowest numbered bit of the highest numbered octet of the field. When the field extends over more than one octet, the order of bit values progressively decreases as the octet number increases.

Figure 7.1.1-1 shows an example of a field where the most significant bit of the field is marked MSB and the least significant bit of the field is marked LSB.

Type field indicates the envelope type.

Length field indicates the length of the generic FTT-IMS envelope in octets.

Payload field is an optional field and its value depends on the envelope type.
