   The concatenation rules specify that a GT SPDU (category 0) must ALWAYS
be prepended to a DT SPDU (category 2).  So often times you will see a
session PDU such as:

	01-00-01-00   followed by a bunch of data.  This is an "empty" 
GT SPDU concatenated with a DT SPDU (both LIs are 0).

You should never see a DT SPDU by itself since category 2 SPDUs must be 
concatenated with another SPDU.

Hope this helps,
   John
