6.2.2.3.2 Information element mapping

Some networks may choose to provide a service of mapping some or all of the information from the incoming call packet into the SETUP message (see 3.2.3/X.31). Table 6-4 shows the mapping of the X.25 incoming call elements to Q.931 information elements. The incoming call packet will still contain these fields when it is delivered. See 3.2.3/X.31 for mapping requirements.

a) Mapping is optional or required as indicated in 8.2.3/X.31.

NOTE 1 – The maximum length of the user data within the User-user informatione element is network dependent and is either 32 or 128 octets.

NOTE 2 – The need and procedures for A-bit mapping is for further study.

NOTE 3 – This information is not always present even when the "Information rate" is provided in the Q.931 SETUP message.

NOTE 4 – When the "Throughput class negotiation" is not set in the X.25 incoming call packet, this information shall be provided as the default throughput values applying to the virtual call.

NOTE 5 – The network will map bits 8 and 7 of the first octet of the called address extension facility parameter field in X.25 incoming call packet to type of subaddress field in octet 3 of the Called party subaddress information element in the Q.931 SETUP message, assuming that the X.25 incoming call packet is coded based on the 1988 version of X.25. Therefore, the called user should notice that the received type of subaddress may not be correct when the X.25 incoming call packet is coded based on the 1984 version of X.25.

NOTE 6 – This mapping is mandatory and octet 3a shall be set with Presentation indicator set to presentation allowed and Screening indicator set to network provided.
