Figure A.1-1: Example of future Extension Field

In the Example of the future Extension Field, New IE flag 0 indicates if the New IE 1 is present or not. New IE flag 1 indicates if the new IE 2 is present or not.

A.1.1 New IE Flags

Description: The New IE Flags IE is only present if at least one new IE is present. The New IE Flags IE contains flags indicating which new IEs that are present following the New IE Flags IE. The last bit position of the New IE Flags IE is used as the Extension Flag to allow the extension of the New IE Flags IE in the future. Extension octets of the New IE Flags IE shall follow directly after the first octet of the New IE Flags IE. When an extension octet of the New IE Flags IE is present, then all previous extension octets of the New IE Flags IE and the New IE Flags IE shall also be present, even if they have all their flag bits indicating no presence of their respective new IEs.
