DynamicTMN® Java OSI/RFC1006 Stack SDK

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.

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

The following standards are currently implemented by the OSI/RFC1006 stack:

• RFC 1006: OSI over TCPIP (CMIP/OSI over TCP/IP)
• ITU-T X.214: OSI - Transport Service Definition
• ITU-T X.224: OSI - Transport Protocol Specification

The following standards are currently being added to the OSI/RFC1006 Stack SDK and will be available soon:

• ITU-T X.215: OSI - Session Service Definition
• ITU-T X.225: OSI - Session Protocol Specification
• ITU-T X.216: OSI - Presentation Service Definition
• ITU-T X.226: OSI - Presentation Protocol Specification
• ITU-T X.227: Association Control Service Element (ACSE) Protocol
• ITU-T X.229: Remote Operations (ROSE) Protocol

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.
