IMPART OSI Transport
For Windows

Accessing VME host or other devices using OSI protocols

The software implements the ISO standard transport protocol to provide reliable communications over local area network connections for both IMPART and customers’ own applications.Customer-written applications can use the IMPART Application Data Interchange (ADI) interface which provides a simple set of functions for reading and writing data and requires the IMPART addressing files, or the Winsock or WinXTI interfaces (ISO 8072), for more precise control.

ISO 8073 Connection-Oriented Transport Protocol Class 4 over ISO 8802-3 LAN
ISO 9542 End System to Intermediate System routing exchange protocol (ESIS)
Support for multiple LAN cards and sub-networks
A GUI interface for setting OSI Transport and network layer parameters

ISO 8473 Connectionless Network Protocol (CLNP)
Dynamic addressing for use when the full CLNP is not used – This is used for environments such as Fujitsu’s IPA3 OSLAN, where there is not a network protocol and therefore no ESIS
Extensive tracing, diagnostic and statistics facilities
A choice of application programming interfaces (WinSock/WinXTI)
