Local Extended Area Service (EAS) Traffic Local traffic
refers to calls that originate and terminate within the same calling area
and do not incur a toll charge.
Extended Area Service indicates that end users in a specified
geographic area have paid a higher flat monthly fee to call within a larger
area rather than paying a lower flat monthly fee for a smaller area and
incurring toll charges to the locations which would have been in the EAS.
Usually, this service is provided over the SS7 signaling protocol.
