Review of Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Joint Australian/

New Zealand Standards are subject to periodic review and are kept up to date by the
issue of amendments or new editions as necessary. It is important therefore that
Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest edition, and any
amendments thereto.
Full details of all Joint Standards and related publications will be found in the
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand Catalogue of Publications; this
information is supplemented each month by the magazines ‘The Australian Standard’
and ‘Standards New Zealand’, which subscribing members receive, and which give
details of new publications, new editions and amendments, and of withdrawn
Standards.
Suggestions for improvements to Joint Standards, addressed to the head office of either
Standards Australia or Standards New Zealand, are welcomed. Notification of any
inaccuracy or ambiguity found in a Joint Australian/New Zealand Standard should be
made without delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action
taken.

 Copyri ght STANDARDS AUSTRALIA/STANDARDS NEW ZEALAND

Users of Standards are reminded that copyri ght subsists in all Standards Austr alia and Standards New Zealand publications and
soft ware. Except where the Copyri ght Act all ows and except where provided for below no publi cati ons or soft ware produced by
Standards Australi a or Standards New Zealand may be reproduced, stored in a retri eval system in any form or tr ansmit ted by any

to the head offi ce of Standards Austr alia. New Zealand requests should be directed to Standards New Zealand.
Up to 10 percent of the technical content pages of a Standard may be copied for use exclusively in-house by purchasers
of the Standard without payment of a royalt y or advice to Standards Australi a or Standards New Zealand.
Inclusion of copyri ght materi al in computer software programs is also permitt ed without royalty payment provided such
programs are used exclusively in-house by the creators of the programs.
Care should be taken to ensure that material used is from the current edit ion of the Standard and that it is updated whenever the
Standard is amended or revised. The number and date of the Standard should therefore be clearly identif ied.
The use of material in pri nt form or in computer soft ware programs to be used commercially, with or without payment, or in

PREFACE

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee IT/1 on
Information Syst ems — Interconnect ion to supersede AS/ NZS 4107:1993, Information
technology — Telecommunications and information exchange between systems — Protocol combinations to
provide and support the OSI network service, Part 2: Provision and support of the connection-mode
network service.

It is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO/IEC 8880-2: 1992, Information technology —
Telecommunications and information exchange between systems — Protocol combinations to provide and
support the OSI Network Service, Part 2: Provision and support of the connection-mode Network Service.

This Standard is issued as a Joint Standard under the terms of the Active Cooperation Agreement between
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand.

The objective of this Standard is to provide OSI network designers with a description of the
connection-mode network service including the field of application.
This is a free 7 page sample. Access the full version at http://infostore.saiglobal.com.

This Standard is one of a series of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Standards which are currently
under development. Since OSI Standards are developmental, there may be some minor difficulties
encountered in their implementation. For this reason, Standards Australia will be providing, through the
OSI Help Desk, a service to coordinate and disseminate information concerning difficulties which are
identified in using this Standard.

Users of this Standard are advised by Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand, under arrangements
made with ISO and IEC, as well as certain other Standards organizations, that the number of this Standard
is not reproduced on each page; its identity is shown only on the cover and title pages.

For the purpose of this Standard, the source text should be modified as follows:

(a) Terminology The words ‘this Australian/New Zealand Standard’ should replace the words ‘this
International Standard’ wherever they appear.

(b) Decimal marker Substitute a full point for a comma where it appears as a decimal marker.

(c) References The references to international Standards should be replaced by references, where
appropriate, to the following Australian or Joint Australian/New Zealand Standards:
