Scope:

This Recommendation/International Standard specifies

(a) procedures for the connectionless-mode transmission of data and protocol control information from one transport entity to one peer transport entity.

(b) the encoding of the transport-protocol-data-units used for the transmission of data and control information;

(c) procedures for the correct interpretation of transport protocol control information; and

(d) the functional requirements for implementations claiming conformance to this Recommendation/International Standard.

The procedures are defined in terms of

(a) the interactions among peer transport entities through the exchange of transport-protocol-data-units;

(b) the interactions between a transport entity and a transport service user through the exchange of transport service primitives; and

(c) the interaction between a transport entity and a network service provider through the exchange of network service primitives.

This Recommendation/International Standard specifies the connectionles s-mode transport protocol and provides the PICS Proforma in compliance with the relevant requirements, and in accordance with the relevant guideline, given in CCITT Rec. X.291 / ISO/IEC 9646-2. The protocol for providing the connection-mode transport service is specified in ITU-T Rec. X.224 / ISO/IEC 8073.
