7-10 CHAPTER 7: ROUTING IN AN APPLETALK® ENVIRONMENT

AppleTalk Data Stream Protocol (ADSP). The ADSP works with the ATP to ensure reliable data transmission. Unlike ATP, however, ADSP provides full-duplex byte-stream delivery. This means that two nodes can communicate simultaneously. ASDP also includes ﬂow control, so that a fast sender does not overwhelm a slow receiver.

AppleTalk Session Protocol (ASP). The ASP passes commands between a workstation and a server once a connection is made between the two. ASP ensures that the commands are delivered in the same order as they were sent and returns the results of these commands to the workstation.

Printer Access Protocol (PAP). The PAP maintains communications between a workstation and a printer or print service. The PAP functions include setting up and maintaining a connection, transferring the data, and tearing down the connection on completion of the job. Like other protocols at the session layer, PAP relies on NBP to ﬁnd the addresses of named entities. PAP also depends on ATP for sending data.

Presentation Layer The presentation layer maintains information about ﬁles, formats, and

	translations between formats. An AppleTalk internet has two protocols at
	the presentation layer: the AppleTalk Filing Protocol (AFP) and PostScript®.
	AFP provides remote access to ﬁles on the network. PostScript is a paged
	description language used by many printers.

About AARP	The AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP) maps the hardware
	address of an AppleTalk node to an AppleTalk protocol address. It does this
	mapping for both extended and nonextended networks.
	When a node on the network initializes, it randomly selects an AppleTalk
	address for itself. At the same time, it sends out ten AARP probe packets.
	The probe packets determine whether any other nodes on the network are
	using the address it has chosen. If a node on the network is already using
	that address, the node randomly selects another address and sends out
	another probe packet.
