scope:

This part of MIL-STD 2045-17502 covers message transfer between Message Transfer Agents (MTAs) in an MM environment using the P1 Message Transfer Protocol (see also figure 1). These specifications form part of the Military Messaging application functions, as defined in the parts of MIL-STD 2045-17502, and are based on the Common DoD Messaging content type-independent specifications in MIL-STD 2045-17501.

This part of MIL-STD 2045-17502 is the third part of a multipart DSP for AMH2n(D) Military Message Handling Systems.

This part of MIL-STD 2045-17502 specifies the following profile:

AMH22(D) - MM Requirements for Message Transfer (P1)

This DSP shall be combined with the multipart DSP identified as "AMH1n(D), Message Handling Systems - Common DoD Messaging" (see also ISO/IEC TR 10000-1, 8.2 for the definition of multipart ISPs).

It may be combined with any DoD approved T-Profiles (see ISO/IEC TR 10000) specifying the OSI connection-mode Transport service.

The model used is one of two or more MTAs intercommunicating within a Message Transfer System (MTS) using the P1 protocol, as shown in figure 1.

The AMH22(D) profile covers all aspects of the MTA Abstract Service, as defined in clause 12 of ISO/IEC 10021-4 when realized using the P1 protocol in an MM environment.
