NOTES

1. Included if the network provides information that can be presented to the user.

2. The minimum length is 2 octets; the maximum length is network dependent and is either 34 or 82 octets.

3. May be sent if the access connection has not yet reached the active state. However, user-user information is not sent after the access connection has reached the active state since X.25 procedures would be used for this information transfer.

4. The minimum length is 2 octets; the standard default maximum length is 131 octets.
