Two other CCITT protocols play important roles in the ISDN specification:

LAPB (link access protocol — balanced) — A link-layer protocol adopted by the CCITT as part of the
X.25 packet-switched network standard. It is a subset of HDLC.

LAPD (link access protocol D-channel) — A link-layer protocol adopted by the CCITT for D-channel
communications. At the network layer, X.25 is employed for packet switching, and I.451 is employed
for control signaling.

The ISDN protocol scheme is given in Figure D-2. The figure shows that D-channel and B-channel
communications are packaged in different protocol suites. In addition, when signaling, data packets, or
telemetry are transmitted over the D-channel, each uses a different subset of protocols. Likewise, on the
B-channel, CCITT plans for circuit-switched, leased-line, and packet-switched communication allow for
differing protocol suites.
