     DEComni/VMS contains an implementation of the services defined
     in Annex C of ISO 9506-1 and ISO 9506-2. While these services
     are not part of the standard, they are provided to support lim-
     ited file transfer capability between Digital systems and other
     vendor systems. Because of the limitations of these services,
     use of VAX FTAM is recommended. Refer to SPD 29.86.xx for fur-
     ther information.

     DEComni/VMS, Version 1.1                          SSA 32.32.01-A
     (Digital's OSI Manufacturing Network Interconnect)


     Note 1

     VAX F floating point is supported. The range is .29*10**-38
     through 1.7*10**38.
     An exponent width of 8 bits is supported.
     A format width of 32 bits is supported.

     Note 2

     The effective length for strings is limited by the maximum PDU
     size. See Note 8.

     Note 3

     Date and Time are supported.
     Support for Time Sequence Identifier is N/A.

     Note 4

     Read and Write indications are delivered to user written code;
     uninterruptible access is application dependent.

     Note 5

     The Syntax and semantics for file name are specified by the VMS
     Operating System. This is documented in the VMS documentation
     under "Full File Specification." Wildcard specifiers are not
     permitted.

     The file name must be specified in the first graphic string of
     the FileName production. Any information in additional graphic
     strings will be ignored. Note 6

     The range is 1-infinity. Acceptance of indications is under
     programming control. The actual number of outstanding requests
     allowable is dependent upon process memory limits which is set
     by either the programmer or system manager.

     Note 7

     This implementation does not specify additional code nor addi-
     tional detail in error type.

     (Digital's OSI Manufacturing Network Interconnect)


     Note 8

     The following semantics are defined for the use of the local
     detail calling/called fields. As a result, a limit is set for a
     maximum MMS PDU size, which limits specific functions.

     The semantics of this field are contained the the implementation
     agreements of the NIST (National Institute for Standards and
     Technology - OSI Implementors Workshop) Special Publication 500-
     183 titled "Stable Implementation Agreements for Open Systems
     Interconnect Protocols, Version 4, Edition 1, December 1990,"
     Part 20 (MMS) Sections 8.1.1.3 and 8.1.1.4.
