and 'after-id' fields.
In some cases 'before-id' and 'after-id' are the same as using RSM's
'before' and 'after' parameters. For more information, see the

<p>
Queries in the 'urn:xmpp:mam:2' namespace can be limited using the RSM
'before' and 'after' parameters.
Normally these are opaque identifiers that are not known until the results
of the first query are returned at which point they can be used to fetch
subsequent pages.
However, MAM specifically defines them as being equal to the archive ID,
meaning that an acceptable value can be known and used in the initial query.
This makes them equivalent to 'before-id' and 'after-id' defined in the
'urn:xmpp:mam:2#extended' namespace except for the following differences:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
The behavior of using RSM's 'before' and 'after' together is undefined,
</li>
<li>
And using 'before' implies paging backwards through the result set while
using 'before-id' does not.

</ol>
