   XID  frames.  SNA devices send these frames to the null SAP in order
   to determine the source route information in support of bridging.
   Normally SNA devices use SAP x'04', x'08', or x'0C'.  Typically the
   SAP would be used to determine if the Test frames should be sent to
   the DLS code in the router.  If both bridging and DLS are enabled,
   this allows the product to ensure that SNA frames are not both
   bridged and switched.

   For NetBIOS, circuit establishment is via the Name Query and Name
   Recognized frames.  These frames are used for both address resolution
   and source route determination.  Normally NetBIOS devices use SAP
   x'F0'.

4.2.1. Data Link Switch States

   The Switch-to-Switch Protocols will be formally defined through a
   single state machine.  The following table lists the eleven possible
   states.  A separate state machine is employed for each end-to-end
   circuit that is maintained by the Data Link Switch.  The three steady
   states are DISCONNECTED, CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED, and CONNECTED.

     State Name            Description
     ----------            -----------
     CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED   The end-to-end circuit has been
                           established.  At this time LLC Type 1
                           services are available from end-to-end.
     CIRCUIT_PENDING       The target DLS is awaiting a REACH_ACK
                           response to an ICANREACH message.
     CIRCUIT_RESTART       The DLS that originated the reset is
                           awaiting the restart of the data link
                           and the DL_RESTARTED response to a
                           RESTART_DL message.
     CONNECTED             The end-to-end connection has been
                           established thereby allowing LLC Type 2
                           services from end-to-end in addition to
                           LLC Type 1 services.
     CONNECT_PENDING       The origin DLS is awaiting the CONTACTED
                           response to a CONTACT message.
     CONTACT_PENDING       The target DLS is awaiting the
                           DLC_CONTACTED confirmation to a DLC_CONTACT
                           signal (i.e., DLC is waiting for a UA
                           response to an SABME command).
     DISCONNECTED          The initial state with no circuit or
                           connection established, the DLS is awaiting
                           either a CANUREACH, an ICANREACH, a
                           NETBIOS_NQ, or a NETBIOS_NR message.
     DISCONNECT_PENDING    The DLS that originated the disconnect
                           is awaiting the DL_HALTED response to a
                           HALT_DL message.
     HALT_PENDING          The remote DLS is awaiting the DLC_DL_HALTED
                           indication following the DLC_HALT_DL request
                           (i.e., DLC is waiting for a UA response to a
                           DISC command).
     RESTART_PENDING       The remote DLS is awaiting the DLC_DL_HALTED
                           indication following the DLC_HALT_DL request
                           (i.e., DLC is waiting for a UA response to a
                           DISC command), and the restart of the data
                           link.
     RESOLVE_PENDING       The target DLS is awaiting either the
                           DLC_DL_STARTED indication following the
                           DLC_START_DL reqest (i.e., DLC is waiting
                           for a Test response as a result of sending a
                           Test command), or a NB_Name_Recognized
                           frame in response to a NB_Name_Query frame.

      Figure 7.  DLS State Transitions  (ts = transitional state)

   The DISCONNECT state is the initial state for a new circuit.  One end
   station starts the connection via a TEST or XID command (i.e.,
   DLC_RESOLVE_C) or a NetBIOS Name Query command (not explicitly
   shown).  Upon receipt, the Data Link Switches exchange a set of
   CANUREACH, ICANREACH and REACH_ACK messages.  Upon completion of this
   three-legged exchange, both Data Link Switches will be in the
   CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED state.  Two pending states also exist during this
   exchange.  The RESOLVE_PENDING state is entered by the target Data
   Link Switch awaiting a Test response to a Test Command and the



Dixon & Kushi                                                  [Page 19]

RFC 1434             DLS: Switch-to-Switch Protocol           March 1993


   CIRCUIT_PENDING state is entered by the target DLS awaiting the
   REACH_ACK reply to an ICANREACH message.

   The CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED state allows for the exchange of LLC Type 1
   frames such as the XID exchanges between SNA stations that occurs
   prior to the establishment of a connection.  Also, datagram traffic
   (i.e., UI frames)  may be sent and received between the end stations.
   These exchanges use the XIDFRAME and DGRMFRAME messages sent between
   the Data Link Switches.

   In the CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED state, the receipt of a SABME command
   (i.e., DLC_CONTACTED) causes the origin DLS to issue a CONTACT
   message, to send an RNR supervisory frame (i.e., DLC_ENTER_BUSY) to
   the origin station, and to enter the CONNECT_PENDING state awaiting a
   CONTACTED message.  The target DLS, upon the receipt of a CONTACT
   message, will issue a SABME command (i.e., DLC_CONTACT) and enter the
   Contact Pending state.  Once the UA response is received (i.e.,
   DLC_CONTACTED), the target DLS sends a CONTACTED message and enters
   the CONNECTED state.  When received, the origin DLS enters the
   Connected state and sends an RR supervisory frame (i.e.,
   DLC_EXIT_BUSY).

   The CONNECTED state is the steady state for normal data flow once a
   connection has been established.  Information frames (i.e., INFOFRAME
   messages) are simply sent back and forth between the end points of
   the connection.  This is the path that should be optimized for
   performance.

   The connection is terminated upon the receipt of a DISC frame or
   under some other error condition detected by DLC (i.e., DLC_ERROR).
   Upon receipt of this indication, the DLS will halt the local data
   link, send a HALT_DL message to the remote DLS, and enter the
   DISCONNECT_PENDING State.  When the HALT_DL frame is received by the
   other DLS, the local DLC is halted for this data link, a DL_HALTED
   message is returned, and the DISCONNECTED state is entered.  Receipt
   of this DL_HALTED message causes the other DLS to also enter the
   DISCONNECTED state.

   The CIRCUIT_RESTART state is entered if one of the Data Link Switches
   receives a SABME command  (i.e., DLC_RESET) while in the CONNECTED
   state.  This causes a DM command to be returned to the origin station
   and a RESTART_DL message to be sent to the remote Data Link Switch.
   This causes the remote data link to be halted and then restarted.
   The remote DLS will then send a DL_RESTARTED message back to the
   first DLS.  The receipt of the DL_RESTARTED message causes the first
   DLS to issue a new CONTACT message, assuming that the local DLC has
   been contacted (i.e., the origin station has resent the SABME
   command).  This is eventually responded to by a CONTACTED message.



Dixon & Kushi                                                  [Page 20]

RFC 1434             DLS: Switch-to-Switch Protocol           March 1993


   Following this exchange, both Data Link Switches will return to the
   CONNECTED state.  If the local DLC has not been contacted, the
   receipt of a DL_RESTARTED command causes the Data Link Switch to
   enter the CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED state awaiting the receipt of a SABME
   command (i.e., DLC_CONTACTED signal).

   In the figure, the transition labeled HALT_DL(ts) represents the
   HALT_PENDING state and the transition labeled RESTART_DL(ts)
   represents the RESTART_PENDING state.  Both these transitional states
   have only one input event and only one output action.  While in these
   states, the Data Link Switch is awaiting responses from the local
   station on the adjacent LAN (i.e., a UA response to a DISC command).
   Also in the RESTART_PENDING state, the Data Link Switch will attempt
   to restart the data link prior to sending a DL_RESTARTED message.
   For the IBM 6611 implementation, the start of a data link involves
   the exchange of a Test command/response on the adjacent LAN (i.e.,
   DLC_START_DL).  For other implementations, this additional exchange
   may not be required.

4.2.2. State Transition Tables

   This section provides a detail representation of the Data Link
   Switch, as document by a set of state machines.  The first state
   machine documents the sending and receiving of SSP messages.  Many of
   the transitions are dependent upon local signals between the Data
   Link Switch entity and one of the DLC entities.  These signals and
   their definitions are given in the following tables.
