|
* X.25 HDLC DATA LINK LEVEL:
|
|
*
|
|
*
|
|
* This module implements the Link Level of the Open Systems Interconnect
|
|
* Model. The implementation is based on the ISO High-Level Data Link
|
|
* Control (HDLC). These procedures subscribe to the principles of the
|
|
* ISO-Class of Procedures for point-to-point. These procedures implement
|
|
* two-way asynchronous balanced mode (LAPB) as recommented by the CCITT.
|
|
*
|
|
* The HDLC protocol layer interface consists of the following procedures:
|
|
* Hd_init (pr_init)
|
|
* Hd_ouput (pr_output)
|
|
* Hd_input (pr_input)
|
|
* Hd_timer (pr_slowtimo)
|
|
*
|
|
* Note: Supervisory commands RR, RNR and REJ are not transmitted by this
|
|
* station.
|
|
*
|
|
* This station never enters a busy (RNR) condition.
|
|
*
|
|
* The "Generate_rr" variable can be set to FALSE. This means that
|
|
* we NEVER send an RR. This works just fine if the network level
|
|
* is X.25 packet protocol -- which it is.
|
|
*
|
|
* Currently, this is only a DTE implementation.
|
|
*
|
|
* Think about:
|
|
* If the remote is busy, no iframes are sent. The remote sends a RR
|
|
* to clear this condition. However, this RR may be damaged, causing
|
|
* a possible deadlock. A solution is to poll with iframe (P(S)==P(R)
|
|
* of RNR) indefinitly.
