▀ Enhanced Features and Functionality
Packet size limit is 2400 bytes, if due to header insertion packet size exceeds this limit, behavior is
unpredictable.
Only those x-header fields in header portion of application protocol that begin with "x-" are parsed at HTTP
analyzer. In URL and data portion of HTTP any field can be parsed.
The following are limitations to insertion and encryption of x-header fields in WSP headers:
x-header fields are not inserted in IP fragmented packets.
In case of concatenated request, x-header fields are only inserted in first GET or POST request (if rule matches
for the same). X-header fields are not inserted in the second or later GET/POST requests in the concatenated
requests. For example, if there is ACK+GET in packet, x-header is inserted in the GET packet. However, if
GET1+GET2 is present in the packet and rule matches for GET2 and not GET1 x-header is still inserted in
GET2. In case of GET+POST also, x-header is not inserted in POST.
In case of CO, x-header fields are not inserted if the WTP packets are received out of order (even after proper re-
ordering).
If route to MMS is present, x-headers are not inserted.
x-headers are not inserted in WSP POST packet when header is segmented. This is because POST contains
header length field which needs to be modified after addition of x-headers. In segmented WSP headers, header
length field may be present in one packet and header may complete in another packet.
x-headers are not inserted in case of packets buffered at DCCA.
Supported X-Headers
This section provides information on the different x-headers supported by ECS.
ECS supports insertion of various x-header fields in the HTTP/WSP GET and POST request packets. The x-headers are
inserted at the end of the HTTP/WSP header.
The following bearer-related x-headers are supported:
3gpp
The following 3GPP associated fields are supported:
apn
charging-characteristics
charging-id
imei
imsi
qos
rat-type
s-mcc-mnc
sgsn-address
acr
customer-id
ggsn-address
