Extended link services
The type of extended link service is identified by the LS Command Code in the first word of the payload. The
R_CTL field of the frame header identifies whether the extended link service is a request or a reply to a
request. The accept for extended link services varies with the function. A description of the accept for each
request is included with the description of the request.
