4.5.7 Call state

The purpose of the Call state information element is to describe the current status of a call, (see 2.1) or an access-connection (see 2.2) or a global interface state (see 2.4).

The Call state information element is coded as shown in Figure 4-13 and Table 4-8.

The length of this information element is three octets.
