6.2.3 Interface between the LLI User and LLI
This clause describes the services, their parameters and the sequences of serv-
ice primitives at the interface between the LLI user and LLI.
The LLI services are processed via LLI service access points (LLI SAPs). There
are 2 LLI service access points. The following assignment shall apply:
LLI SAP 0: LLI user = FMS
LLI SAP 1: LLI user = FMA7
The detailed functionality of the services and the sequences at the interface to
Layer 2 and over the bus are described from the chapter connection-oriented com-
munication relationships on.
6.2.4 Overview of Services
The LLI provides the following services at the interface to the LLI user:
- Associate (ASS) : establishment of a connection
- Data Transfer Confirmed (DTC) : data transfer user confirmed
- Abort (ABT) : release of a connection
Optionally, the LLI may additionally provide the following services at the in-
terface to the LLI user:
- Data Transfer Acknowledged (DTA): data transfer LLI confirmed
- Data Transfer Unconfirmed (DTU) : unconfirmed data transfer
Thereby the following definitions are valid:
The LLI user, which issues a service request to its LLI, is called responder.
The LLI user, which receives a service indication for unconfirmed LLI user serv-
ices from its LLI, is called receiver.
The services are described in an abbreviated, tabular form.
The following abbreviations are used in the tables:
.req : request service primitive
.ind : indication service primitive
.res : response service primitive
.con : confirmation service primitive
M : parameter is Mandatory for the primitive
S : parameter is a Selection from a set of two or more
possible parameters
C : parameter is Conditional upon another parameter
Subparameters are indented.
