Abstract
Communication equipment () is configured for use in a communication network (). The communication equipment () determines an extent () to which a communication identifier () for the communication network () is to be padded in order for the communication identifier () to have a length that is included in a set () of allowed lengths. For each of at least two allowed lengths in the set (), the allowed length differs from the next shortest or longest allowed length in the set () by a common length difference, and the longest allowed length among said at least two allowed lengths differs from the next longest allowed length in the set () by more than the common length difference. The communication equipment () performs, or assists other communication equipment () to perform, padding of the communication identifier () to the determined extent ().
