ISO /IEC 15802-4 : 1994 ANSI/IEEE Std 802.1E, 1994 Edition (incorporating ANSI/IEEE Std 802.1E-1990 and ANSI/IEEE Std 802.1m-1993) -Description

Abstract: Services and protocol elements that permit the downloading of memory images to data processing equipment attached to IEEE 802 Local and Metropolitan Area Networks are defined. The protocol makes use of the group addressing capabilities inherent in LAN/MAN technologies to permit simultaneous loading of the same memory image to multiple destination systems. The standard includes the specification of managed objects that permit the operation of the load protocol to be remotely managed.

Keywords: local area networks, management, metropolitan area networks, management, system load protocol
