A.10 Virtual Filestore
This clause details the conformance to the file model, file attribute support, and to file
structure support.
State whether the hierarchical file model (see ISO 8571-2) is supported and, if so, which
constraint sets and, where relevant, the maximum depth of hierarchy supported.

Note. ISO 8571 requires the presence of the transfer syntax derived from the “Basic Encoding
of a single ASN.1 type” {joint-iso-ccitt asn1 (1) basic-encoding (1) } encoding rules for transfer
of the “FTAM PCI” and the “FTAM FADU” abstract syntaxes. Implementation detail of this
transfer syntax, and other transfer syntaxes supported, is specified in the PICS of ISO 8823.
