MH-C-BILATERAL-INFORMATION

This class of object consists of binary data that follows the BER. The data type of the

encoded value is defined by the source domain, the administration management domain

(ADMD) or private management domain (PRMD) that supplies the data. The ADMDs

or PRMDs for which the data is intended are presumed to know the syntax and

semantics of the data.

Table 3-6

describes the attribute types for this class and the syntax, length, and number

of values for each type.

Some attribute types have additional value characteristics, as shown in Table 3-7
