Otherwise, if EVS or AMR-WB is used on possible other call legs in the conference, the MRFC should include the mode-set parameter with a value indicating the mode that was negotiated on those other call legs (or omit it if no restrictions applied before).
If the MRFC supplies the mode-set parameter in the SDP answer, it shall also supply it to the MRFP in the local descriptor for the termination towards the offerer with the same value.
mode-change-period (NOTE 3)If the mode-change-period parameter is contained in the SDP offer and the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC shall forward this parameter to the MRFP for the termination towards the offerer in the remote descriptor.If the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC shall either include the mode-change-capability parameter with value 2 or omit it.
If the MRFC supplies the mode-change-capability parameter in the SDP answer, it may also supply it to the MRFP in the local descriptor for the termination towards the offerer with the same value.
mode-change-capability (NOTE 3)If the mode-change-capability parameter is contained in the SDP offer and the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC may forward this parameter to the MRFP for the termination towards the offerer in the remote descriptor.If EVS or AMR-WB is used on possible other EVS call legs in the conference, the MRFC should include the mode-change-capability parameter with a value indicating the mode that was negotiated on those other call legs (or omit it if no restrictions applied before).
If the MRFC supplies the mode-change-capability parameter in the SDP answer, it may also supply it to the MRFP in the local descriptor for the termination towards the offerer with the same value.
mode-change-neighbor (NOTE 3)If the mode-change-neighbor parameter is contained in the SDP offer and the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC shall forward this parameter to the MRFP for the termination towards the offerer in the remote descriptor.If EVS or AMR-WB was used on possible other EVS call legs in the conference, the MRFC should include the mode-change-neighbor parameter with a value indicating the mode that was negotiated on those other call legs (or omit it if no restrictions applied before).
If the MRFC supplies the mode-change-neighbor parameter in the SDP answer, it shall also supply it to the MRFP in the local descriptor for the termination towards the offerer with the same value.
max-red (NOTE 5)If the max-red parameter is contained in the SDP offer and the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC shall forward this parameter to the MRFP for the termination towards the offerer in the remote descriptor.The MRFC shall only include the max-red parameter in the SDP answer if it desires to restrict the maximum redundancy of received packets. When selecting the value of the max-red parameter, the MRFC shall consider the capabilities of the MRFP and, if EVS or AMR-WB is used on possible other EVS call legs in the conference, the redundancy that was negotiated on those call legs.
If the MRFC supplies the max-red parameter in the SDP answer, it shall also supply it to the MRFP in the local descriptor for the termination towards the offerer with the same value.
3gpp_mtsi_app_adapt (NOTE 4)If the 3gpp_mtsi_app_adapt parameter is contained in the SDP answer, and the MRFC select the EVS payload type, the MRFC shall forward this parameter to the MRFP the MRFC shall forward this parameter to the MRFP in the remote descriptor.If the MRFP supports RTCP APP based adaptation messages defined in TS 26.114, and the MRFC has a policy to negotiate the usage of those messages, the MRFC shall include the 3gpp_mtsi_app_adapt SDP attribute indicating the allowed APP messages in the SDP answer. If EVS is used possible other EVS call legs in the conference, the MRFC should consider the negotiated RTCP APP packet types on those call legs in addition to the MRFP capabilities when selecting the allowed RTCP APP messages.
NOTE 1:
This MIME parameter of the EVS RTP payload type is defined in TS 26.445. It is encapsulated within the SDP "a=fmtp" attribute defined RFC 4566.
NOTE 2:
This number of channels are encoded as "encoding parameters" of the SDP "a=rtpmap" attribute defined in RFC 4566.
NOTE 3:
This MIME parameter of the EVS RTP payload type relates to AMR-WB IO mode and is defined in RFC 4867]. It is encapsulated within the SDP "a=fmtp" attribute defined RFC 4566.
NOTE 4:
This SDP attribute is defined in TS 26.114. It applies to all codecs offered in an SDP media line. However, some values are specific to EVS.
NOTE 5:
This MIME parameter of the EVS RTP payload type is defined in RFC 4867]. It is encapsulated within the SDP "a=fmtp" attribute defined RFC 4566.
The MRFP handling of EVS codec parameters shall follow Table 5.13.3.3 in TS 23.334. The MRFP should support transcoding of EVS with bandwidths (sampling rates) which are supported by codec the MRFP is capable to transcode EVS to/from (e.g. NB for AMR, and WB for AMR-WB).

5.13  Video Transcodingp. 40

The MRFP shall support video transcoding between streams of two Terminations within the same context where the streams are encoded differently, in accordance with standard H.248 principles, see ITU-T H.248.1 [3].
