-
- The TCP/IP in 4.1.1 is implemented atop the traditional BSD networking
- framework, not atop STREAMS. There is a TLI implementation in SunOS
- 4.1[.x]; the TLI part is STREAMS-based, but it just plugs into the
- sockets-based TCP (not UDP) implementation.
-
- The TCP/IP in SunOS 5.x *is* STREAMS-based.
