'DisplayIE truncated, too long' message

Symptom:

A message reporting 'DisplayIE truncated, too long' may be displayed in the CLI of the Dialogic Integrated Media Gateways:

15:06:42.922 SVC(W) IW:DisplayIE truncated, too long

Reason for the issue:

According to ITU.Q.931.4.5.16:

The Display information element has a network dependent default maximum length of 34 or 82 octets. The evolution to a single maximum value of 82 octets is an objective. If a user receives a Display information element with a length exceeding the maximum length which the user can handle, the information element should be truncated by the user.

Current IMG Gateway software supports a maximum length of 34 octet of Display IE. If the IMG Gateway receives a Display IE with a length exceeding the 34 octets, it will truncate the Display IE and display the warning in the CLI.

Here is an example of incoming ISDN SETUP with 52 octets Display IE (28 32 ....):
