+Status of this Memo
+
+ This memo provides information for the Internet community. This memo
+ does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of
+ this memo is unlimited.
+
+Authors' Note
+
+ This memo documents the parameters used in the Multiple Access
+ Protocol over SONET/SDH Version 1. This document is NOT the product
+ of an IETF working group nor is it a standards track document. It
+ has not necessarily benefited from the widespread and in-depth
+ community review that standards track documents receive.
+
+Abstract
+
+ This document describes the protocol parameters used in the Multiple
+ Access Over SONET/SDH (MAPOS) version 1. MAPOS is a link layer
+ protocol and provides multiple access capability over SONET/SDH
+ links.
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Multiple Access Protocol over SONET/SDH (MAPOS) [1] is a high-speed
+ link-layer protocol that provides multiple access capability over
+ SONET(Synchronous Optical Network)/SDH(Synchronous Digital
+ Hierarchy)[2][3][4][5]. Its frame format is based on the HDLC-like
+ framing [6] for PPP. A component called "Frame Switch" [1] allows
+ multiple nodes to be connected together in a star topology to form a
+ LAN. Using long haul SONET/SDH links, the nodes on such a "SONET-LAN"
+ can span over a wide geographical area. The Internet Protocol (IP)
+ [7] datagrams are transmitted in MAPOS HDLC frames [8].
+
+ This document describes the protocol parameters used in MAPOS version
+ 1 [1].

+
+
+2. Protocol Field Assignments
+
+ The MAPOS Version 1 Data Link Layer [1] contains a 16 bit Protocol
+ field to identify the the encapsulated protocol. The Protocol field
+ is consistent with the ISO 3309 (HDLC) extension mechanism for
+ address fields. All protocol numbers MUST be assigned such that the
+ least significant bit of the most significant octet equals "0", and
+ the least significant bit of the least significant octet equals "1".
+
+ Assigned MAPOS Protocol Numbers
+
+ Value (in hex) Protocol Name

+ FE01 MAPOS Version 1 Address Resolution Protocol (ARP[8])
+ FE03 MAPOS Version 1 Node Switch Protocol (NSP[9])
+ FE05 MAPOS Version 1 Switch Switch Protocol (SSP[10])
+ FE07-FEFF Not Used - reserved
