Guardian. An environment available for interactive or programmatic use with the HP
NonStop™ operating system. Processes that run in the Guardian environment usually
use the Guardian system procedure calls as their application program interface;
interactive users of the Guardian environment usually use the HP Tandem Advanced
Command Language (TACL) or another HP product’s command interpreter. Contrast
with Open System Services (OSS).

IPv4 and is a direct replacement for parallel library TCP/IP), INET 6 (only IPv6), and
Dual (both IPv4 and IPv6 communications).
