Line 4: }} {{Use dmy dates\|date=May 2019\|cs1-dates=y}} The '''Open Data-Link Interface''' ('''ODI''') is an [[application programming interface]] (API) for [[network interface controller]]s (NICs) developed by [[Apple Computer\|Apple]] and [[Novell]]. The API serves the same function as Microsoft and 3COM's [[Network Driver Interface Specification]] (NDIS).<ref>{{Cite web \|date=2020-05-17 \|title=What is ODI(Open Data link Interface)? \|url=https://dd.geeksforgeeks.org/what-is-odiopen-data-link-interface/ \|access-date=2023-04-12 \|website=GeeksforGeeks \|language=en-us }}{{Dead link\|date=August 2025 \|bot=InternetArchiveBot \|fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Originally, ODI was written for [[NetWare]] and [[Apple Macintosh\|Macintosh]] environments. Like NDIS, ODI provides rules that establish a vendor-neutral interface between the protocol stack and the adapter driver. It resides in Layer 2, the Data Link layer, of the [[OSI model]]. This interface also enables one or more network drivers to support one or more [[protocol stack]]s. ==See also== Line 27: {{cite book \|last1=Buchanan \|first1=William J. \|title=Mastering Microsoft Windows, Novell NetWare and UNIX \|date=11 November 1999 \|publisher=[[Bloomsbury Publishing]] \|isbn=978-1-349-14968-1 \|pages=214–217 \|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1zRIEAAAQBAJ \|access-date=1 April 2025 \|language=en \|chapter=11.3 NetWare architecture}} {{cite journal \|last1=Merenbloom \|first1=Paul \|title=It's time to take another look at your NetWare shell strategy. \|journal=[[InfoWorld]] \|date=15 March 1993 \|volume=15 \|issue=11 \|pages=52–53 \|url=https://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?id=GALE%7CA13507864&sid=googleScholar&v=2.1&it=r&linkaccess=abs&issn=01996649&p=AONE&sw=w&userGroupName=anon%7E77d48194&aty=open-web-entry \|access-date=1 April 2025 \|language=English}} {{cite ~~journal~~book \|last1=Fu \|first1=Zhi-Jian \|last2=Kao \|first2=Tai-Wu \|~~title~~chapter=The design of a low cost local area network using NetWare \|~~journal~~title=Proceedings the Twenty-Ninth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory \|date=March 1997 \|pages=40–43 \|doi=10.1109/SSST.1997.581575 \|chapter-url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/581575 \|publisher=[[Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers]]\|isbn=0-8186-7873-9 }} {{cite encyclopaedia\|encyclopaedia=Novell's complete encyclopedia of networking\|article=ODI (Open Data-link Interface)\|pages=715–717\|author1-first=Werner\|author1-last=Feibel\|___location=San Jose, California\|publisher=Novell Press\|year=1995\|isbn=0782112900\|lccn=94066403}} * {{cite encyclopaedia\|encyclopaedia=LAN TIMES Encyclopedia of Networking\|author1-first=Thomas\|author1-last=Sheldon\|publisher=Osborne McGraw-Hill\|year=1994\|isbn=9780078819650\|article=Open Data-link Interface (ODI)\|pages=666–667}}
