| Internet Protocol (IP) TransportDescription: OpenSS7 Transport Overview.OpenSS7 has developed IP transport for LiS STREAMS that supports all IP components including Transport Provider Interface (TPI) STREAMS interfaces to Linux native TCP, UDP and RAW sockets. In addition, the IP transport packages support TPI STREAMS interface to our Linux native SCTP stack. (Click on any of the components below for an overview of the component.) (Select from the Related menu on the left for related Internet Protocol (IP) Transport information.)
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) The SCTP product provides a Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) STREAMS multiplexing driver which provides SCTP protocol modules. In addition, this product is responsible for a Linux Native implementation of SCTP and STREAMS access to the Linux Native implementation. OpenSS7 has two Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) drivers: one for the STREAMS stack which is written as a STREAMS driver; another native to the Linux kernel. OpenSS7 provides an INET package for STREAMS which provides a STREAMS Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to our Linux native kernel (sockets) implementation, as well as providing an SCTP STREAMS driver which provides Transport Provider Interface (TPI) and Network Provider Interface (NPI) under STREAMS. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) The TCP product provides a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) multiplexing driver that provides Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to the native Linux NET4 TCP implementation. OpenSS7 provides the strinet package which has been included in LiS STREAMS which provides Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to the TCP sockets implementation native to Linux. The UDP product provides a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) multiplexing driver which will provide Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to the native Linux NET4 TCP implementation. OpenSS7 provides the strinet package which has been included in STREAMS which provides Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to the UDP sockets implementation native to Linux. Service-Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) for Multi-Cast Environments (SSCOP-MCE) The SSCOP-MCE product provides a Service-Specific Connection Oriented Protoocl for Multi-Cast Environments (SSCOP-MCE) multiplexing driver which will provide Transport Provider Interface (TPI) and SSCOP-MCE protocol modules. OpenSS7 has also done some work of implementing a STREAMS version of SSCOP-MCE to round out the IP transport services of OpenSS7. OpenSS7 provides the strinet package which has been included in Linux Fast-STREAMS which provides Transport Provider Interface (TPI) to the RAW and other low level IP sockets implementation native to Linux. In addition, some work has been done on including an Network Provider Interface (NPI) direct IP driver to be included in the strxns package. | ||||||||||||||||||
