WTLS classes II and III

Do you know where I can find information about Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS) classes II and III? I have read the WAP forum white papper, and classes II and III are not menitioned.

The classes have to do with the security mechanisms used with WTLS.

Currently, there are three classes of WTLS security:
Class 1 - Anonymous authentication
Class 2 - Server authentication
Class 3 - Two-way authentication (server and client)

Please see http://www1.wapforum.org/tech/documents/WAP-217-WPKI-20010424-a.pdf.
