Figure 7.7.103-1: Signalling Priority Indication
The following bits within Octet 4 shall indicate:
– Bit 8 to 2 – Spare, for future use and set to zero.
– Bit 1 – LAPI (Low Access Priority Indication): This bit defines if the UE indicated low access priority when establishing the PDP Context. It shall be encoded as the Low Priority parameter of the Device Properties IE in 3GPP TS 24.008 [5]. The receiver shall assume the value "0" if the Signalling Priority Indication IE is applicable for a message but not included in that message by the sender. The low access priority indication may be included in charging records.
