We are currently working with the ISODE package (which provides ACSE,
ROSE, RTSE, Presentation, Session, over TP0) which we have operating over
X.25. We will be working primarily with X.500, X.400
and custom ROSE based applications, and occasionally with FTAM and VT.
Most of our traffic will originate from an X.500 DSA or an X.400 MTA
(which in effect multiplexes user requests) and requires only one
connection per remote DSA/MTA site.
We are in the process of deciding whether to offer TP2 as well as TP0,
over X.25.
TP2 would offer i) multiplexing (which we don't currently need)
ii) transport layer flow control (the merit of
which is unclear without multiplexing)
I am interested in what transport protocols others are working with, and WHY,
- so I have prepared this simple survey:
Please fill out and return via email .... thank you in advance.
