OSI PRODUCT SURVEY
Abstract
As OSI standards are becoming finalized, computer manufacturers and vendors are beginning to provide networking solutions based on OSI protocols. Products which implement OSI protocols are available from most major suppliers. They cover all seven layers and support several technologies and applications. Technologies supported include X.25 networks and various types of local area networks; applications supported are file transfer, virtual terminal, message handling, and directory services. Several projects are underway to promote conformance and interoperability testing of OSI products. This article describes some of these testing projects and a sample of OSI products available.
