The .Tn ISO family provides protocol support for the .Dv SOCK_SEQPACKET abstraction through the .Tn TP protocol .Pf ( Tn ISO 8073), for the .Dv SOCK_DGRAM abstraction through the connectionless transport protocol .Pf ( Tn ISO 8602), and for the .Dv SOCK_RAW abstraction by providing direct access (for debugging) to the .Tn CLNP .Pf ( Tn ISO 8473) network layer protocol. .Sh ADDRESSING .Tn ISO addresses are based upon .Tn ISO 8348/AD2, .%T "Addendum to the Network Service Definition Covering Network Layer Addressing." .Pp Sockets bound to the OSI protocol family use the following address structure: .Bd -literal struct iso_addr { u_char isoa_len; /* length, not including this byte */ char isoa_genaddr[20]; /* general opaque address */ }; struct sockaddr_iso { u_char siso_len; /* size of this sockaddr */ sa_family_t siso_family; /* addressing domain, AF_ISO */ u_char siso_plen; /* presentation selector length */ u_char siso_slen; /* session selector length */ u_char siso_tlen; /* transport selector length */ struct iso_addr siso_addr; /* network address */ u_char siso_pad[6]; /* space for gosip v2 SELs */ }; #define siso_nlen siso_addr.isoa_len #define siso_data siso_addr.isoa_genaddr .Ed .Pp The fields of this structure are: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Ar siso_len : Length of the entire address structure, in bytes, which may grow to be longer than the 32 bytes shown above. .It Ar siso_family : Identifies the domain: .Dv AF_ISO . .It Ar siso_tlen : Length of the transport selector. .It Ar siso_slen : Length of the session selector. This is not currently supported by the kernel and is provided as a convenience for user level programs. .It Ar siso_plen : Length of the presentation selector. This is not currently supported by the kernel and is provided as a convenience for user level programs. .It Ar siso_addr : The network part of the address, described below. .El .Sh TRANSPORT ADDRESSING An .Tn ISO transport address is similar to an Internet address in that it contains a network-address portion and a portion that the transport layer uses to multiplex its services among clients. In the Internet domain, this portion of the address is called a .Em port . In the .Tn ISO domain, this is called a .Em transport selector (also known at one time as a .Em transport suffix ) . While ports are always 16 bits, transport selectors may be of (almost) arbitrary size. .Pp Since the C language does not provide convenient variable length structures, we have separated the selector lengths from the data themselves. The network address and various selectors are stored contiguously, with the network address first, then the transport selector, and so on. Thus, if you had a network address of less than 20 bytes, the transport selector would encroach on space normally reserved for the network address. .Sh NETWORK ADDRESSING .Tn ISO network addresses are limited to 20 bytes in length. .Tn ISO network addresses can take any format. .Sh PROTOCOLS The .Tn ARGO 1.0 implementation of the .Tn ISO protocol family comprises the Connectionless-Mode Network Protocol .Pq Tn CLNP , and the Transport Protocol .Pq Tn TP , classes 4 and 0, and .Tn X.25 . .Tn TP is used to support the .Dv SOCK_SEQPACKET abstraction. A raw interface to .Tn CLNP is available by creating an .Tn ISO socket of type .Dv SOCK_RAW . This is used for .Tn CLNP debugging only. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr clnp 4 , .Xr cltp 4 , .Xr tp 4
