CONS

CONS, Connection-Oriented Network Service, is one of the two OSI network layer protocols, the other being CLNS (Connectionless Network Service). It is basically X.25, with a few adjustments.

Protocols providing CONS

Some protocols that provide the CONS service:

* X.25, as specified in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.223/en/ ITU-T Recommendation X.223] is a Public Data Network protocol that provides the Connection Oriented Network Service as described in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.213/en/ ITU-T Recommendation X.213] .

* Signalling Connection Control Part (SCCP), as specified in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-Q.711/en/ ITU-T Recommendation Q.711] is a Signaling System 7 protocol that provides the Connection Oriented Network Service as described in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.213/en/ ITU-T Recommendation X.213] .

* Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP), as specified in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REQ-Q.2110/en/ ITU-T Recommendation Q.2110] is an Asynchronous Transfer Mode protocol that provides the Connection Oriented Network Service as described in [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.213/en/ ITU-T Recommendation X.213] .
