Standalone Java OSI/RFC1006 Stack |
Overview | Features | Specifications | Standards | Customization
The OSI/RFC1006 Stack SDK is a Standalone platform-independent upper-layer OSI Stack Software Development Kit (SDK) which uses RFC1006/TCPIP for the network transport.
The SDK is a simple Java API and protocol stack for performing upper-layer OSI communications over RFC1006(TCP/IP). It provides a 100% Java, fully-interoperable, standard-compliant implementation of the RFC1006 standard for OSI over TCP including an implementation of the OSI transport layer which standards required for interoperable communication between Transport-layer Service Access Points (TSAPs).
With this stack API, you can now develop 100% Java applications which interact with legacy OSI systems over RFC1006. The standalone API stack is based on the time-proven RFC1006 stack used in the other DynamicTMN® CMIP Products.
The current implementation provides a lightweight, high-level OSI transport layer API over RFC1006. We will soon be adding session and presentation Layer APIs on top of the transport API.
Key Features
Some of the features of the OSI/RFC1006 Stack SDK are:
- 100% Java (Java 2 SDK version 1.2 or newer, no JNI)
- Easy to use Java Transport Layer API
- Supports both initiator/responder connection modes
- Runs in the application space (no separate stack processes)
- Interoperable with all 3rd party RFC1006 stacks

Custom Stacks
At Monfox, we realize that it is very difficult to provide a shrink-wrapped software solution that meets the needs of all prospective customers. For this reason, we offer very cost-effective custom stack development for customers who need more than just an out-of-box stack solution. So, if you need an OSI stack for Java, please contact us and see how we can help.
