- TRANSMISSION OF MULTIPLE CONTROL MESSAGES
-
-
-
-
- The network program at a site must be prepared to send or receive more
- than one control message in a single control communication.
-
- During the time that the control link is blocked awaiting RFNM, it is
- possible that a number of control messages to a particular remote host
- will accumulate. When the link is unblocked, these should all be sent
- in a single communication for greatest efficiency.
-
- For receiving, it will be necessary to have a loop which returns to
- decode and take action on successive control messages until the control
- communication is exhausted.
