CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 10168-4-98 (R2002)

The international community has decided to make this standard available only in the English language version. It has been adopted as a National Standard of Canada on this basis. This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard ISO/IEC 10168-4:1996. 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 10168 defines: a) procedures for a single protocol for the transfer of data and control information from one test management entity (the Lower Tester) to a peer test management entity (the Upper Tester); b) the structure and encoding of the test management protocol data units used to operate the test management protocol. These procedures are defined in term of: a) the service primitives sent and received by the Upper Tester; b) the Session Layer - Test Management Protocol Data Unit sent and received by the Upper Tester.
