[comp.protocols.iso] IGOSS - need info

cmilono@netcom.COM (Carlo Milono) (06/22/91)

I have been reading about the new Industry-Government Open Systems 
Specification, or IGOSS.  I would greatly appreciate any formal or informal
sources of information (FTP sites, and the like...)  Of particular 
interest is the use of Multicast and Functional addresses and how the 
differing 'standards' will resolve the conflicts.

Also, on an unrelated note: I could use help in 802.5 Address spaces as
they pertain to DLC and OSI.  I recently attended an IBM seminar where
all their OSI products were trotted out - NO BIG IRON Token ring, only
802.3!!!!!  Is it possible that you cannot have TR-based SNA coexisting
with OSI???
