In the decoding of GPRS LLC layer, the UI format is erroneously decoded as
"Unnumbered Information", but according to ETSI 04.64, it should be
"Unconfirmed Information".  The term "unnumbered" is misleading, because there
is an N(U) in this layer for UI format (so, it's actually numbered).

Following is an example:
MS-SGSN LLC (Mobile Station - Serving GPRS Support Node Logical Link Control) 
SAPI: GPRS Mobility Management
    FCS: 0x21c14e (correct)
    Address field  SAPI: LLGMM
        0... .... = Protocol Discriminator_bit: OK
        .0.. .... = Command/Response bit: DownLink/UpLink = Response/Command
        .... 0001 = SAPI: GPRS Mobility Management (1)
    Unnumbered Information format - UI, N(U) = 0
        110. .... .... .... = UI format: 0x0006
        ...0 0... .... .... = Spare bits: 0x0000
        .... .000 0000 00.. = N(U): 0
        .... .... .... ..0. = E bit:  non encrypted frame
        .... .... .... ...1 = PM bit: FCS covers the frame header and
information fields
