[CNG]No, I mean that the syntax doesn't support adding streams in the 
multiplex descriptor. This is different to what's happening in the Content.

[CNG] No, Megaco does support Nx64K, the syntax doesn't support 
including N in the multiplex descriptor. As I mentioned its implied by 
the number of terminations in the list of termination assigned to the 
multiplex descriptor.

[CNG] A little, I understand the termination aspect. I'm still not sure 
about the streams. I don't understand how you can have multiple H.248 
streams for the circuit termination TermA and TermB? With what 
information element (i.e. property) do you assign the SAPI and TEI to a 
Stream? What properties distinguish the Nx64K termination from a HDLCW1 one?

[CNG] I think you're trying to solve this at a different level than what 
it should be. The multiplex descriptor describe the multiplex of 
terminations used to make up a stream. It doesn't describe what's 
happening at a stream level itself. We have the Stream Descriptor with 
associated (Local, Remote, LocalControl descriptors) to do this.
