Can anyone help me with the AppleTalk hierarchy and how it
relates to the ISO model?
This is roughly what I got from Bob Denny's article in MacTutor
of 11/85:
1. Physical SCC, AppleTalk Personal Network, PhoneNet
2. DataLink ALAP
3. Network DDP + RMTP
4. Transport ATP (NBP?)
5. Session AFP (Denny didn't mention it, since it didn't exist)
6. Presentation (none)
7. Application LaserWriter driver, any Mac program
The acronyms are
AppleTalk Link Access Protocol
Datagram Delivery Protocol
Routing Table Maintenance Protocol
AppleTalk Transaction Protocol
Name Binding Protocol
AppleTalk Filing Protocol (brand new)
These are handled by the software
DRVR '.MPP': ALAP, DDP, RMTP, NBP
DRVR '.ATP': ATP
AppleShare: AFP
Did I screw up or miss anything? And just out of curiosity, where does
the Kinetics chop it off, at Level 3 and below?
