IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern- mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting. International Standard IS0 9314-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 97, lnforma tion processing systems. IS0 9314 consists of the following parts, under the general title information processing systems - Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) - - Part 1: Token Ring Physical Layer Protocol (PHY) - Part 2: Token Ring Media Access Control (MAC) - Part 3 : Token Ring Physical Layer, Medium Dependent (PMD) iv SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) Introduction This part of IS0 9314 on the FDDI media access control is intended for use in a high-performance multistation network. This protocol is designed to be effective at 100 Mbit/s using a Token ring architecture and fibre optics as the transmission medium over distances of several kilometres in extent.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) Information processing systems - Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) - Part 2: Token Ring Media Access Control (MAC) 1 scope This part of IS0 9314 specifies the Media Access Control (MAC), the lower sublayer of the Data Link Layer (DLL), for Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI). FDDI provides a high-bandwidth (100 Mbit/s), general-purpose interconnection among computers and peripheral equipment using fibre optics as the transmission medium in a ring configuration. FDDI can be configured to support a sustained transfer rate of approximately 80 Mbit/s (10 Mbyte/s). It may not meet the response time requirements of all unbuffered high speed devices. FDDI establishes the connection among many stations distributed over distances of several kilometres in extent. Default values for the FDDI were calculated to accommodate rings of up to 1 000 physical links and a total fibre path length of 200 km (typically corresponding to 500 stations and 100 km of dual fibre cable). FDDI consists of (a) A Physical Layer (PL), which provides the medium, connectors, optical bypassing, and driver/receiver requirements. PL also defines encode/decode and clock requirements as required for framing the data for transmission on the medium or to the higher layers of the FDDI. For purposes of this part of 9314, references to the PL are made in terms of the Physical Layer entity designated PHY. (b) A Data Link Layer (DLL), which is divided into two sublayers: (1) A Media Access Control (MAC) which provides fair and deterministic access to the medium, address recognition, and generation and verification of frame check sequences. Its primary function is the delivery of frames, including frame insertion, repetition, and removal. The definition of MAC is contained in this part of IS0 9314. (2) A Logical Link Control (LLC) which provides a common protocol to provide the required data assurance services between MAC and the Network Layer. (c) A Station Management (SMT)‘) which provides the control necessary at the station level to manage the processes under way in the various FDDI layers such that a station may work co-operatively on a ring. SMT provides services such as control of station initialization, configuration management, fault isolation and recovery, and scheduling procedures. l) SMT will form the subject of a future part of IS0 9314. SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) The MAC definition contained herein is designed to be as independent as possible from bo’ the physical medium and the speed of operation. Concepts employed in IS0 8802-5, dealir with Token Ring MAC operation have been modified to accommodate the higher FDDI speed while retaining a similar set of services and facilities. IS0 9314 specifies the interfaces, functions, and operations necessary to ensure interoperabilii between conforming FDDI implementations. This part of IS0 9314 provides a function description. Conforming implementations may employ any design technique that does nc violate interoperability. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitui provisions of this part of IS0 9314.

The term LLC unless otherwise qualified refers to any local user of MAC da services, other than SMT, including IS0 8802-2. Low lines (e.g., requested-service-class) are used as a convenience to mark the name signals, functions, etc., that might otherwise be misinterpreted as independent individual words they were to appear in text. The use of a period (e.g., MA,UNITDATA.request) is equivalent to the use of low lines exce antecede that a period is used as an aid to distinguish modifier words appended to an expression. 4.1.1 Addressing my short address (MSA): %-bit Individual Address of this station (0 = Null). my long address (MLA): 48-bit Individual Address of this station (0 = Null). does not implement 48-bit addressing then MLA-0. short addresses: Set of l&bit station Addresses including MSA if not Null, Broadcast Address (all ones), and any other 16-bit Group Addresses recognized by long addresses: Set of 48-bit Station Addresses including MLA if not Null, If a stati the 16-l this static the 48-l Broadcast Address (all ones), and any other 48-bit Group Addresses recognized by tl station. If a station does not implement 48-bit addressing, then MIA = 0. When claiming the Token (i.e., the transmitter is in Claim Token state), if the station transml with 16-bit addressing, then MLA = 0; conversely, if the station transmits with 48-l addressing, then MSA = 0. SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) 4.1.2 Timing values and timers: All timing values are expressed as the unsigned twos complements of the target, or remaining, time in octets, i.e., the numerically greater magnitude represents the shortest time remaining. This definition is for reference purposes only and does not prescribe the implementation, except where these timing values appear in Protocol Data Units on the ring. These timing values are not ail used simultaneously in the state machines; consequently, the implementation need not materialize- them when they are not needed. For the purpose of the description contained in this part of IS0 9314, ail timers are assumed to be initialized with the unsigned twos complement of the target, or remaining, time in octets. Timers are further assumed to count upward if enabled, expiring when an overflow occurs. Ail timer comparisons are expressed on the basis of elapsed time. These conventions are only for the convenience of documenting this part of IS0 9314 and do not prescribe implementation. 4.2 Abbreviations Error-Ct Frame-Ct Late-Ct LostSt A-Flag C-Flag E-Flag H-Flag L-Flag M-Flag N-Flag R-Flag A-Max D-Max F-Max I-Max L-Max M-Max S-Min T-Bid-Rc T-Bid-TX TVini t T-Max T-Min T-W T-Opr T-Pri T,Pri( n) T-React T-Req T-Resp THT TRT TTRT TVX Count of Count of Count of Count of Indicates indicates Indicates indicates indicates indicates indicates Indicates Maximum Maximum Maximum Maximum Maximum Maximum reportable frame errors ail frames received TRT expirations (Token Lateness) PDUs detected as lost Destination Address match in last received frame successful copying of last received frame error detected in last received frame Higher Source Address received Lower Source Address received My Source Address received next station addressing the Token-class of the last valid Token received was restricted signal acquisition time ring latency time frame time station physical insertion time Transmitter Frame set-up time number of MAC entities allowed on the ring Minimum safety timing allowance Bidding TTRT received by this station in Claim Frames Bidding TTRT transmitted in this station’s Claim Frames Ring initialization time Maximum TTRT to be supported by this station Minimum TTRT to be supported by this station Negotiated TTRT during Claim process (in receiver) Operative TTRT for this station (in transmitter) Set of n priority Token rotation time thresholds Element n of the set T-Pri Worst Case time to react to a station insertion or removal Requested TTRT for this station’s synchronous traffic Worst case time to recover a Token Token-Holding Timer Token-Rotation Timer Target Token Rotation Time Valid-Transmission Timer SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) 6 General description A Token ring consists of a set of stations serially connected by a transmission medium form a closed loop (see figure 1). information is transmitted sequentially, as a stream symbols, from one active station to the next. Each station generally regenerates and repe each symbol and serves as the means for attaching one or more devices to the ring for purpose of communicating with other devices on the ring. A given station (the one that access to the medium) transmits information on to the ring, where the information circula from one station to the next. The addressed destination station(s) copies the information a’ passes. Finally, the station that transmitted the information effectively removes it from ring.

N - Ring Stations a,b,c,d,e,f,g . . . n - Bypass Function Ail stations are active except B (b illustrated in bypass mode) Figure 1 - Token ring configuration example A station gains the right to transmit its information on to the medium when it detects a To: passing on the medium. The Token is a control signal comprised of a unique symbol sequel that circulates on the medium following each information transmission. Any station, UI detection of a Token, may capture the Token by removing it from the ring. The station n then transmit one or more frames of information. At the completion of its informa’ transmission, the station issues a new Token, which provides other stations the opportunity gain access to the ring. A Token-holding timer, or equivalent means, limits the length of time a station may (occupy) the medium before passing the Token. SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) Multiple levels of priority are available for independent and dynamic assignment depending upon the relative class of service required. The classes of service may be synchronous (typically used for applications such as real-time voice), asynchronous (typically used for interactive applications), or immediate (used for extraordinary applications such as ring recovery). The allocation of ring bandwidth occurs by mutual agreement among users of the ring. Error detection and recovery mechanisms are provided to restore ring operation ih the event that transmission errors or medium transients (e.g., those resulting from station insertion or removal) cause the -access method to deviate from normal operation. Detection and recovery for these cases utilizes a recovery function that is distributed among the stations attached to the ring. The media access method as specified herein is not intended to place constraints on the logical link control or higher level protocols employed to effect data transfer. 6 Services This clause specifies the services provided by MAC and the services required by MAC. The intent is to allow higher-level protocol(s) (e.g., IS0 8802-2) to operate correctly with this MAC. How many of the services described in this clause are chosen for a given implementation is up to that implementer; however, a set of MAC services shall be supplied sufficient to satisfy the higher level protocol(s) being used. The services as defined herein do not imply any particular implementation, or any interface. Services described are (a) MAC services provided to the local LLC entity, or other MAC users (indicated by MA- prefix). (b) Services required from the local PHY entity by MAC (indicated by PH- prefix). (c) MAC services provided to the local SMT entity (indicated by SMJA- prefix). 6.1 MAC-to-LLC services This subclause specifies the services provided by the Medium Access Control (MAC) to allow the local LLC entity to exchange LLC service data units with peer LLC entities. These services are also used for implementer frames. The following primitives are defined: MA,UNiTDATA.request MAJJNiTDATA.indication MAJJNITDATA-STATUS.indication MA,TOKEN.request The description of each primitive includes a description of the information that is passed between the LLC and MAC entities. 6.1.1 MAJJNiTDATA.request This primitive defines the transfer of one or more Service Data Units (SDUs) from a local LLC entity to a single peer LLC entity, or to multiple peer LLC entities in the case of group addresses. SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) 6.1.1.1 Semantics of the primitive MA,UNiTDATA.request 1 FC-value (I), destination-address (I), M-SW (I), requested-service-class (I), stream (I), FLvalue (2), destination-address (2), LSDU (21, requested-service-class (2), stream (2), . I-C-value (n), destination-address (n), M-SW (n), requested-service-class (n), stream (n), Token-class 1 Each set of FC-value, destination-address, MBSDU, requested-service-class and strea parameters specifies one frame for transmission and is The FC-value parameter supplies the Frame Control ( the frame. referred to as a subrequest. FC) field to be transmitted as part 4 The destination,-address parameter may specify either an individual or a group MAC addres It shall contain sufficient information to create the DA (Destination Address) field that included in the frame by MAC. Address length is determined by the L bit of the associate FC-value parameter (see 7.3.3). Each M-SDU parameter specifies an LLC service data unit as received at the MAC interfac to be transmitted by MAC. There is sufficient information associated with the MBSDU fc MAC to determine the length of the service data unit. Associated with each MBSDU is requested-service-class parameter. Requested-service-class may be either Synchronous or Asynchronous. if asynchronous, tt requested-Token-class and the priority level may optionally be specified. Stream is a parameter that, if set, shall cause multiple MBSDUs to be transmitted as a rest of the MAJJNiTDATA.request. Stream, when reset, indicates that this MBSDU is the last or associated with this MA,UNiTDATA.request. The frames shall be transmitted in the ordc presented by this primitive regardless of the associated requested-service-class. if TF (Token-Rotation Timer) has expired (Late-Ct not= 0) or if a frame is encountered that cannc be transmitted because of its associated requested-service-class and the current value ( THT (Token-Holding Timer), then transmission is terminated and a Token is issued as define by the Token-class parameter. A MAJJNITDATA-STATUS.indication is subsequently returns to LLC. if the transmission-status is successful, MAC may initiate transmission of tt remaining frames on the next permitted access opportunity or, alternatively, MAC may requil reissuance of a new MAJNiTDATA.request. SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) Token-class specifies the class of Token that MAC shall issue following transmission of the associated SDUs (i.e., at the end of the request), if no other request is pending that can be r honoured. With requests for synchronous service the Token-class shall be the Token-class that was captured; with requests for asynchronous service it may be either restricted or nonrestricted. If no SDUs were specified by the MAJJNiTDATA.request, then MAC shall immediately issue the requested class of Token. 6.1.1.2 When generated This primitive is generated by the local LLC entity whenever data is to be transferred to a peer LLC entity or entities or a Token is to be generated. This may be in response to a request from higher layers of protocol or from data generated internally to LLC. 6.1.1.3 Effect of receipt The receipt of this primitive shall cause MAC to append ail MAC-specific fields, including DA, SA (Source Address), and any fields that are unique to the medium access method, and pass the properly formed frames to the lower layers of protocol for transfer to peer MAC entity or entities. NOTE - This primitive is the normal means of requesting the transfer of data. The capture of a Token is implicit in this primitive and therefore it is not necessary to issue an MA-TOKEN.request primitive in conjunction with it. 6.1.2 MAJJNiTDATA.indication This primitive defines the transfer of data from MAC to the local LLC entity. 6.1.2.1 Semantics of the primitive MA,UNiTDATA.indication ( FC-value, destination-address, source-address, MBSDU, reception-status 1 The FC-value parameter specifies the value of the frame’s FC (Frame Control) field. The destination-address parameter may be either an individual or a group address as specified by the DA field of the incoming frame. The source-address parameter is an individual address as specified by the SA field of the incoming frame. The M-SDU parameter shall specify the MAC service data unit as received by the local MAC entity. The reception-status parameter indicates the success or failure of the incoming frame. it consists of the following elements: (a) Frame validity: FR,GOOD, FLBAD If a FR-BAD is reported, the reason for the error shall also be reported. The reason shall be one of the following: (1) Invalid FCS: Calculated FCS (Frame Check Sequence) does not match the received FCS SIST EN 29314-2:1997



IS0 9314-2 : 1989 (E) (2) Length Error: The frame did not have a valid data length (3) Internal Error: An internal error has occurred that prevents MAC fro transferring to LLC a frame that has been acknowledged by the setting of the (address recognized) and C (frame copied) indicators. (b) Frame Status: The received E (error detected), A, C, and, optionally, any other indicator values. 6.1.2.2 When generated The MAJJNlTDATA.indication primitive shall be generated by MAC to indicate to the local LL entity the arrival of an LLC frame addressed to this station. 6.1.2.3 Effect of receipt The effect of receipt of this primitive by the LLC entity is not specified. 6.1.3 MAJJNITDATA-STATUS.lndlcatlon This primitive shall provide an appropriate response to MAJNITDATA.request primitiv signifying the success or failure of the request. 6.1.3.1 Semantics of the primitive MAJNITDATA-STATUS.indication ( number-of-SDUs, transmission-status, provided-service-class 1 The number-of-SDUs parameter reports the number of MBSDUs transmitted on a giw access opportunity as a result of this request. The transmission-status parameter shall be used to pass information requesting LLC entity. It shall be used to indicate the success or fai associated MA,UNITDATA.request. If the MA,UNITDATA.request primitive one MBSDU, then the transmission-status parameter may apply to all of t indicating if all were acknowledged, via the A and C indicators, by a peer case, the resolution of the transmission-status is implementer defined. The provided-service-class parameter specifies the service class that VI transfer. 6.1.3.2 When generated back to the IOC ure of the previor specified more th; re SDUs transmitte MAC entity.
