Considerations

After you have received the synchronize major indication, you cannot call any of

the following procedures until you have called APS_SYNC_MAJORRSP_:

APS_ACTIVITY_DISCARDREQ_

APS_ACTIVITY_ENDREQ_

APS_ACTIVITY_INTERRUPTREQ_

APS_ASSOC_RELEASEREQ_

APS_SYNC_MAJORREQ_

A synchronize major confirm primitive also confirms all previously unconfirmed

minor synchronization points.

The maximum amount of user data you can send with this primitive depends on

the layer of your connection, whether you are using session version 1 or session

version 2, and (for presentation and ACSE connections) whether your connection

is in normal mode or X.410-1984 mode. The maximum length of the

user-data

parameter is as follows:

Session version 1 Session version 2

Session connection 512 bytes 10240 bytes

Presentation connection (normal mode) <512 bytes < 10240 bytes

ACSE connection (normal mode) <512 bytes < 10240 bytes

For a normal-mode presentation or ACSE connection, you can send as much data

as will fit in a 512-byte PPDU (for session version 1) or a 10240-byte PPDU (for

session version 2); the maximum length depends on the encoding.

For a presentation or ACSE connection in X.410-1984 mode, the maximum amount

of data is the same as that for a session connection.
