Introduction
This part of ISO 29281 is part of a series of International Standards for communications access for land
mobiles (CALM). An introduction to the whole set of International Standards is provided in ISO 21217.
This part of ISO 29281 is part 1 of a multipart standard which determines the intelligent transport
systems (ITS) non-IP communications.
An essential protocol for non-IP communications is the “Fast networking & transport layer protocol”
(FNTP). FNTP distinguishes:
— a basic port mapper protocol, primarily used for single-hop communications between ITS stations;
— protocol extensions for
— N-hop groupcast;
— LPP;
— secured communication;
— ITS station-internal forwarding of packets between ITS-S host ITS-SCUs and ITS-S router ITS-SCUs.
FNTP is validated in the CVIS project.

Part 1:
Fast networking & transport layer protocol (FNTP)
1 Scope
This part of ISO 29281 specifies a protocol of the ITS-S networking and transport layer in support of
efficient ad hoc single-hop communications with optional N-hop broadcast.
This protocol supports ITS station-internal forwarding of packets, i.e. between ITS-S routers and ITS-S
hosts and vice versa. The protocol is named “Fast Networking & Transport Protocol” (FNTP).

5.1 Modes of operation
5.1.1 General context and purpose of FNTP
The “fast networking & transport layer protocol” (FNTP) specified in this part of ISO 29281 is designed
as a protocol of the ITS-S networking and transport layer of the ITS station (ITS-S) architecture which
recognizes the concepts of the bounded, secured and managed ITS-S; and supports the concept of ITS
station communication units (ITS-SCU) to implement roles of an ITS-S in physical units specified (see
ISO 21217, ISO 24102-1, ISO 24102-3 and ISO 24102-4).
FNTP is primarily designed to enable single-hop communication between peer ITS stations with
minimum protocol overhead, and supports optional features.
NOTE ISO 15628 legacy systems support specified in [2] makes use of FNTP.
FNTP supports any kind of ad hoc access technology, e.g. CALM M5, CALM IR. FNTP may be used to
connect source and destination “endpoints” identified by “ITS-S port” (ITS-SP) numbers in peer ITS
stations, where peer ITS stations are uniquely identified by a Link-ID (usually MAC address contained
in it) of the access layer specified in ISO 21218. Consequently, FNTP is a port mapper protocol, usually
located in the transport layer of the OSI model.
5.1.2 Basic mode of operation
The basic mode of operation is the simplest option of FNTP, which is just providing single-hop
communications between instances of ITS stations without applying any of the options of FNTP.
5.1.3 Extended mode of operation
The extended mode of operation supports options of the FNTP, e.g.:
— ITS station-internal forwarding;
— secure communications;
— N-hop broadcast;
— LPP support;
— CIP management.

ITS station-internal forwarding is a special option referred to as “station-internal forwarding mode
of operation”.
Other options may be added in a future revision of this part of ISO 29281.

The “Port management” is specified as part of FNTP, but may also be used for other ITS-S networking
and transport layer protocols.
The “CI Selection Manager” is specified in ISO 24102-1. The “CI Manager” is specified in ISO 24102-1
and ISO 21218. These two managers are supporting FNTP, but FNTP does not necessarily depend on
these managers.
5.3 Communication principles
5.3.1 Transmission
Transmission requests may be presented by the ITS-S facilities layer via the NF-SAP. Sources and
destinations of messages in the ITS-S facilities layer are identified by ITS-SP numbers.

MF-SAP
MI-SAP MN-SAP
SI-SAP SN-SAP SF-SAP
ITS-S Security Entity
---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 29281-1:2013(E)
Valid transmission requests to a groupcast MAC address are given by a “well-known” destination port
address in combination with an existing groupcast VCI. The value of the source port address is irrelevant
with respect of validity of a transmission request in case no reply is expected. Replies to groupcast
messages are expected, e.g. in case of the service advertisement message specified in ISO 24102-5.
Valid transmission requests to a unicast MAC address are given by any valid destination port address in
combination with an existing unicast VCI. The value of the source port address is irrelevant with respect
of validity of a transmission request in case no reply is expected.
Transmission requests are presented by the FNTP to the ITS-S access layer using services of the IN-SAP.
NOTE In a CALM compliant ITS station, assignment of VCIs to ITS-S applications is done automatically by the
CI selection management specified in ISO 24102-1.
5.3.2 Reception
Reception notifications may be presented by the ITS-S access layer to the FNTP using services of the IN-
SAP. Sources and destinations of messages are identified by ITS-SP numbers contained in the FNTP NPDU.
Valid notified packets addressed to an ITS-SP are given by a known destination port address. Which CI
was used for reception of the packet, and which is the source port address of the packet, are not relevant
for the validity of the packet, but are relevant for a potential reply.
Notifications of received packets are presented by the FNTP to the ITS-S facilities layer using services
of the NF-SAP.
5.3.3 FNTP ITS-SPs
Allocation and deletion of dynamic and static well-known “ITS-S port” (ITS-SP) numbers is specified in 8.2.
NOTE Static well-known ITS-SP numbers are assigned to ITS applications by a registration authority, see [4].
5.4 Implementation architectures
FNTP may support the implementation architectures introduced in ISO 21217 and illustrated in
Figures 2, 3 and 4 with the peer ITS stations A and B, indicating FNTP in the ITS-S networking and
transport layer.

6.2.2.3.1 FNTP control field
Details of the “FNTP Control” and “Options” fields depends on the mode of operation:
— basic mode of operation;
— extended mode of operation.
The “FNTP Control” field value allows distinguishing details of these two modes of operation as specified
in Table 2. The FNTP control field is a one octet bit-field as specified in Table 2.
The basic mode of operation is indicated by the value zero in the “FNTP Control” field. In this case, the
FNTP NPDU is referred to as “FNTP basic NPDU” in this part of ISO 29281.
In the extended mode of operation, at least one “Option” field is present. Bit B7 indicates presence or
absence of the first optional element following the FNTP control field; Bit B6 indicates presence or
absence of the second optional element following the FNTP control field; and so on; Bit B0 indicates
presence or absence of the last optional element following the FNTP control field. Presence of an optional
element shall be indicated by a value ‘1’b in the respective bit field.
Reserved bits shall be set to the value ‘0’.
