Section: 10.5.4.24 SS Version Indicator
Content: The purpose of the SS version indicator information element is to aid the decoding of the Facility information element as described in 3GPP TS 24.010[ Mobile radio interface  layer 3; Supplementary services specification; General aspects ]  [21]. Within the scope of 3GPP TS 24.008[ Mobile radio interface Layer 3 specification; Core network protocols; Stage 3 ]  the contents of the SS Version information field is an array of one or more octets. The usage of the SS version information field is defined in 3GPP TS 24.080[ Mobile radio interface layer 3 supplementary services specification; Formats and coding ]  [24]. The SS version indicator information element is coded as shown in figure 10.5.113/3GPP TS 24.008[ Mobile radio interface Layer 3 specification; Core network protocols; Stage 3 ] . The SS version indicator is a type 4 information element with a minimum length of 2 octets. No upper length limit is specified except for that given by the maximum number of octets in a L3 message (see 3GPP TS 44.006[ None ]  [19]). Figure 10.5.113/3GPP TS 24.008[ Mobile radio interface Layer 3 specification; Core network protocols; Stage 3 ]  NOTE: Usually, this information element has only one octet of content.
