In the ITU-T and IETF, I proposed the assignment of the information field and protocol identifier in the Q.2941 GIT (Generic Identifier Transport) and Q.2957 UUS (User-to-User Signalling) for the Internet protocol. The aim is to enable B-ISDN signaling support to be used for session of the Internet protocol. The purpose of this paper is to clarify how these specifications enable B-ISDN signaling support to be used for long-lived and QoS-sensitive sessions. Long-lived session requires that the B-ISDN signaling be capable of transferring a session identifier, which is currently supported only by proprietary protocols. By using the GIT information element, B-ISDN signaling can be used to support it. To implement ATM VC support for QoS-sensitive session, this paper describes three approaches. In QoS-sensitive session using these approaches, the B-ISDN signaling must transfer the session identifier or IP signaling protocol. Therefore, B-ISDN signaling based on current recommendations and standards cannot support QoS-sensitive session. These problems can be solved by using the GIT or UUS information element, as I have proposed.
