Taught in 4. Inside TS 24.501, the document at the centre (CT1 — the group that writes what your phone says, overview).

The purpose of the Type 6 IE container information element is to transfer type 6 IEs of format TLV-E explicitly specified for inclusion in this information element for the respective message.

NOTE: Use of this information element is intended only for type 6 IEs added to a message in Rel-18 or later.

The rules for the IEI value encoding specified in 3GPP TS 24.007 [11], clause 11.2.4, are not applicable for the IEIs of the type 6 IEs within the Type 6 IE container information element. These IEIs can take any value in the range 00 to FF (hexadecimal).

The type 6 IE container information element is coded as shown in figure 9.11.3.98.1, figure 9.11.3.98.2 and table 9.11.3.98.1.

The type 6 IE container is a type 6 information element with a minimum length of 6 octets.
