Communication Endpoints

    The Trusted Extensions software supports IPC over communication endpoints by using the following socket-based mechanisms:

  • Berkeley sockets

  • Transport Layer Interface (TLI)

  • Remote procedure calls (RPC)

This section summarizes the socket communication mechanisms and the related security policy. See the appropriate man page for specific information about the security policy and applicable privileges.

In addition to these mechanisms, Trusted Extensions also supports multilevel ports. See Multilevel Port Information.
