.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The devices known as \fBticlts\fR, \fBticots\fR, and \fBticotsord\fR are
``loopback transport providers,'' that is, stand-alone networks at the
transport level. Loopback transport providers are transport providers in every
sense except one: only one host (the local machine) is ``connected to'' a
loopback network. Loopback transports present a \fBTPI\fR (STREAMS-level)
interface to application processes and are intended to be accessed via the
\fBTLI\fR (application-level) interface. They are implemented as clone devices
and support address spaces consisting of ``flex-addresses,'' that is, arbitrary
sequences of octets of length > 0, represented by a \fBnetbuf\fR structure.

\fBticlts\fR is a datagram-mode transport provider. It offers (connectionless)

\fBt_rcvuderr\fR(3NSL)):

\fBticots\fR is a virtual circuit-mode transport provider. It offers

\fBticotsord\fR is a virtual circuit-mode transport provider, offering service
of type \fBT_COTS_ORD\fR (connection-oriented service with orderly release).

the following disconnect messages (see \fBt_rcvdis\fR(3NSL)):

.SH USAGE
.sp
.LP
Loopback transports support a local \fBIPC\fR mechanism through the \fBTLI\fR
interface. Applications implemented in a transport provider-independent manner
on a client-server model using this \fBIPC\fR are transparently transportable
to networked environments.
.sp
.LP
Transport provider-independent applications must not include the headers listed
in the synopsis section above. In particular, the options are (like all
transport provider options) provider dependent.
.sp
.LP
\fBticlts\fR and \fBticots\fR support the same service types (\fBT_CLTS\fR and
\fBT_COTS\fR) supported by the \fBOSI\fR transport-level model.
.sp
.LP
\fBticotsord\fR supports the same service type (\fBT_COTSORD\fR) supported by
the \fBTCP/IP\fR model.
