Abstract

   The IUA protocol described in RFC4233 defines the messages type of
   TEI Query Request messages as 5.  But this number is already used by
   the IUA extension DUA described in RFC4129.  This document updates
   IUA such that the message type of TEI Query Request messages is 8.

Internet-Draft       TEI Query Request Number Change           June 2006


1.  Introduction

   The IUA protocol described in RFC3057 [2] does not define a TEI Query
   Request message.  The IUA extension DUA described in RFC4129 [3]
   introduces DLC Status messages of type 5, 6, and 7.  After that
   RFC4233 [4] was published, which updates RFC3057 [2].  This document
   also introduces the TEI Query Request message and uses the message
   type of 5 for it.  This makes it impossible to differentiate the DLC
   Status request from a TEI Query Request.

   This document updates RFC4233 [4]


2.  Conventions

   The keywords MUST, MUST NOT, REQUIRED, SHALL, SHALL NOT, SHOULD,
   SHOULD NOT, RECOMMENDED, NOT RECOMMENDED, MAY, and OPTIONAL, when
   they appear in this document, are to be interpreted as described in
   RFC2119 [1].


3.  New Message Type of the TEI Query Message

   This document updates RFC4233 [4] by introducing the following
   change.

   TEI Query messages MUST be encoded with a message type of 8 instead
   of 5 as described in RFC4233 [4].


4.  IANA Considerations

   IANA should reserve the message type 8 of Management Messages for TEI
   Query Request messages.


5.  Security Considerations

   This document does not require any security considerations in
   addition to the one given in RFC4233 [4].
