| Exchange™ Open | Handles packet sequencing and acknowledgment for the | |
| Interface™) |
| |
|
| connection. | |
|
|
| |
|
|
| Takes requests that the NetWare DOS Requester™ software has |
|
|
| determined are for the network, “packages” them with transmission |
|
|
| information (such as their destination), and hands them to the LSL™ |
|
|
| program. |
|
|
| Supports mobile IPX client workstations. Allows client workstations |
|
|
| to respond to the NetWare Event Service Layer (NESL) software (a |
|
|
| DOS TSR program that provides a means by which programs running |
|
|
| on client workstations can generate or receive event notifications). |
|
|
| Allows IPXODI to detect changes in network connections, |
|
|
| dynamically bind or unbind to new network boards, and autoswitch |
|
|
| between a primary and secondary network board when problems are |
|
|
| detected. |
|
|
|
|
| LSL.COM |
| Puts the packaged requests from the IPXODI driver into the proper |
| Link Support Layer™ | format for transmission on the particular physical network that the | |
| (LSL) |
| client workstation is running on. |
|
|

|
|
