Transport Connection definition

Transport Connection. An association established by a transport layer between two TSAP Identifier: The piece of information used to multiplex several transport connections of the same type on a single H.323 entity with all transport connections sharing the same LAN address, (e. g. the port number in a TCP/UDP/IP environment). TSAP identifiers may be (pre)assigned statically by some international authority or may be allocated dynamically during setup of a call. Dynamically assigned TSAP identifiers are of transient nature, i. e. their values are only valid for the duration of a single call. Unicast: A process of transmitting messages from one source to one destination. VoIP: Voice over Internet Protocol. The VoIP Forum is the developer of this specification Well-known TSAP Identifier: A TSAP identifier that has been allocated by an (international) authority that is in charge for the assignment of TSAP identifiers for a particular (inter)networking protocol and the related transport protocols -- (e.g. the IANA for TCP and UDP port numbers). This identifier is guaranteed to be unique in the context of the respective protocol.
