RS-232C

A set of standards specifying various electrical and mechanical characteristics for interfaces between computers, terminals and modems.The RS-232-C standard, which was developed by the EIA (Electrical Industries Association), defines the mechanical and electrical characteristics for connecting DTE and DCE data communications devices. It defines what the interface does, circuit functions and their corresponding connector pin assignments.The standard applies to both synchronous and asynchronous binary data transmission.

RSE

Remote Single-layer Embedded (Test Method): An abstract test method in which the upper tester is within the system under test and there is a point of control and observation at the upper service boundary of the Implementation Under Test (IUT) for testing a protocol layer or sublayer which is part of a multi-protocol IUT.

RSFG

Route Server Functional Group: The group of functions performed to provide internetworking level functions in an MPOA System. This includes running conventional interworking Routing Protocols and providing inter-IASG destination resolution.

RTC

Runtime Control: An SCSA definition. The mechanism by which one Resource Object can influence the behavior of another. Typically used for things such as

terminating consitions an speed/volume control.1

rt-VBR

Real-Time VBR

RW

Read-Write: Attributes which are read-write can not be written by the PNNI protocol entity. Only the Network Management Entity may change the value of a read-write attribute. The PNNI Protocol Entity is restricted to only reading such read-write attributes. Read-write attributes are typically used to provide the ability for Network Management to configure, control, and manage a PNNI Protocol Entity's behavior.
