a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids
RFC 905 - ISO Transport Protocol Specification (ISO DP 8073)
Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 905, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is enrolled and gated by ./le rfc check.
Overview
Positive
what Ze has
the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it
one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which
no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why
a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed
Neutral
measures that are neither good news nor bad
MUST-level requirements the gate HOLDS. A population, not a result: the shares beside it are what says how Ze stands
a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze. Scope, not coverage: it is in no share below
The 4 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 6 obligations that bind Ze: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.
How to read the colors
A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.
| Card | Tone here | Why that color |
|---|---|---|
| Gated MUSTs | neutral | no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total |
| Out of scope | neutral | no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim |
| Tested both ways | ok | green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got |
| One polarity plus reason | ok | green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it |
| One polarity, unexcused | ok | green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half |
| No test at all | ok | green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated |
| Proven by a recorded break | ok | green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above |
| Audit verdicts | warn | RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current |

Enrolment
Enrolled: ISO Transport Protocol: nine MUST-level requirements. The six that ze realizes are the Annex B Fletcher checksum (mod-255 arithmetic, two-pass generation, verify-both-sums-zero, OSPF LSA checksum excluding LS Age, encode+decode vectors) -- x-1,x-2,x-3,x-4,x-6,x-7 -- each bound with positive+negative tags on the IS-IS (internal/plugins/isis/packet/checksum.go) and OSPF (internal/plugins/ospf/types/checksum.go, ospf/packet/checksum.go) checksum tests. The three ISO Transport TPDU MUSTs (6.17.3-1 generation, 6.17.3-2 receive/verify-and-discard, 13.2.3.1-1 0xC3 checksum parameter) are {not-applicable}: ze has no ISO Transport TPDU sender/receiver and no 0xC3 transport-checksum-parameter code path.
What the public ledger says
No row in the public ledger, so its summary declares `| Support | - |` and docs/features/rfc-status.md carries no row for RFC 905.
Coverage
| Bucket | Count | What it counts |
|---|---|---|
| Positive and negative tests | 6 | one part of the gated population |
| Annotated instead of tested | 3 | one part of the gated population |
| One polarity only | 0 | one part of the gated population |
| No test and no annotation | 0 | one part of the gated population |
| Evidence that runs nightly only | 0 | an overlay: each of these is also counted by the part it falls in |
| Gated MUST-level requirements | 9 | every gated MUST falls in exactly one bucket above |

Proof state
A tagged unit reads unproven where no discrimination record exists for it: nothing in this tree has been observed to break it, so the claim its tag makes is unproven.
RFC905-6.17.3-1
Sender sets the checksum so SUM(a[i]) == 0 and SUM(i*a[i]) == 0, both mod 255, over octets 1..L (Section 6.17.3)
Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests
No test carries RFC905-6.17.3-1, so no unit is bound to it.
RFC905-6.17.3-2
Receiver (when checksum agreed) discards a TPDU that does not satisfy both checksum formulas (Section 6.17.3)
Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests
No test carries RFC905-6.17.3-2, so no unit is bound to it.

Extraction sign-off
No extraction sign-off exists for RFC 905, so no reviewer has walked its text sentence by sentence.
Superseded
No document obsoletes RFC 905, so its obligations are stated where they were written.
