The Link Establish Indication function is applicable for:
SAPI-0 on SDCCH and FACCH
SAPI-3 on SDCCH and FACCH/T
There are two cases of establishment as described in /GSM 04.06:5.4.1/:
Normal establishment
Contention resolution establishment
The function is initiated when the RBS receives an SABM from MS.
Description
The following procedure is used by RBS to indicate to BSC that a link
layer on the air interface has been established by an initiative from the
MS. After reception of a rst SABM an indication (ESTablish
INDication) is sent to the BSC that a link layer on the radio path has
been established in multiframe mode.
It is the MS that takes initiative of the establishment. This is done when
the mobile, for example, wants to send a measurement report to the
network.

The Normal Establishment is utilized for SAPI-0 links (in conjunction
with a normal assign or handover) as well as for SAPI-3 links (at SMS
point-to-point).
The Contention Resolution Establishment is utilized for SAPI-0 links
only (in conjunction with an immediate assign).
An attempt to establish an SAPI-3 link is rejected (Disconnect Mode
response to MS if the SAPI-0 link is not established).
Messages queued for transmission are lost if the link is re-established.
Collision cases are treated as specied in Technical Specication /
GSM 04.06/
Fault handling related to the link establish procedure is in
accordance with /GSM 04.06:5.4.4/
