Defense Communications Agency Upper Level Protocol Test System Transmission Control Protocol Remote Driver Specification
Abstract
This document is part of a software package that provides the capability to conformance test the Department of Defense suite of upper level protocols including: Internet Protocol (IP) Mil-Std 1777, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Mil-Std 1778, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Mil-Std 1780, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) Mil-Std 1781 and TELNET Protocol Mil-Std 1782. This specification describes the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Remote Driver for the Protocol Test System. Section 2, The Protocol Test System, summarizes the testing procedures used by the system. Section 3, Remote Driver Functions, contains guidelines for developing a TCP Remote Driver where an implementation under test (IUT) resides. In Section 4 a detailed description is given of the commands the Remote Driver must be able to interpret and carry out to perform the TCP testing. Section 5 specifies the response packets the Remote Driver must send to the Central Driver. In Section 6 Remote Driver timing considerations are discussed. Section 7 describes flexibility requirements.
