But as Sylvain mentioned, in almost all cases CKSN is sent as "V" IE,
so no IEI is needed. The only place where you seem to need CKSN IEI is
in GPRS Mobility Management Messages "Authentication and ciphering
request" (section 9.4.9), where it CKSN is sent as "TV" IE. And there
in the table left column you see the IEI value "8-", meaning that it's
"8-in-the-MSB".

- what is CKSN IEI and how do I calculate\use it?
IEI is a Information Element Identifier, which is a part of TLV-coded
(Type-Length-Value) Information Elements (IEs). In other words, IEI
represents type (T) of the data payload which follows it. TLV is an
encoding used in most of the classical GSM protocols. I don't recall
where it is described in the Standard, but here is a nice paper which
you easily find on Google which describes ciphering and described TLV
structure as well (section 6.1.2):
