Re: Filter Separation using a NULL?

Thanks.  Here is some revised text:

  String

     The String field is one or more octets.  It contains filter rules
     in the IPFilterRule syntax defined in [RFC3588] Section 4.3, with
     individual filter rules separated by a NUL (0x00).  A NAS-Filter-
     Rule attribute may contain a partial rule, one rule, or more than
     one rule.  Filter rules may be continued across attribute
     boundaries, so implementations cannot assume that individual
     filter rules begin or end on attribute boundaries.

     The set of NAS-Filter-Rule attributes SHOULD be created by
     concatenating the individual filter rules, separated by a NUL
     (0x00) octet.  The resulting data should be split on 253 byte
     boundaries to obtain a set of NAS-Filter-Rule attributes.  On
     reception, the individual filter rules SHOULD be determined by
     concatenating the contents of all NAS-Filter-Rule attributes, and
     then splitting individual filter rules with the the NUL octet
     (0x00) as a delimeter.


  I would say:

      (0x00) character.  The resulting data should be split on 252
      byte boundaries to obtain a set of NAS-Filter-Rule attributes.
      On reception, the individual filter rules SHOULD be determined
      by concatenating the contents of all NAS-Filter-Rule attributes,
      and then splitting the resulting data at the NULL (0x00) characters.
