Current NSAP Allocation Formats

This section shows a number of examples for existing NSAP allocation

formats. Other standards organizations may have additional formats

that customers may want to use. Customers can contact standards

organizations within their home country to obtain more information.

NOTE HP recommends that customers use the binary format for NSAPs.

Therefore, only this format is discussed here.

ANSI Format

Figure 1-12

ANSI is the standards body that controls the United States Data

Country Code (DCC) 840. They have deﬁned the ﬁrst three octets of the

DSP to be an Organization Identiﬁer, leaving the other 14 octets (the

PAP) to be deﬁned by each controlling organization. ANSI may be

reached at the following address:

American National Standards Institute 1430 Broadway New York, New

York, 10018, USA Telephone: (USA) 212 642-4932

NOTE ANSI deﬁnes a recommended PAP structure for their NSAP space. Its

syntax may be obtained by writing to the above address.
