Connection-Oriented Network Service (CONS) is a service provided by the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) network layer that establishes a virtual circuit for data exchange. It is one of the two primary OSI network-layer services, the other being Connectionless-mode Network Service (CLNS). CONS was largely influenced by X.25, and is formalized in the ISO standards ISO 8208 and ISO 8878,[1][2] but has been generalized and formalized, with adjustments to addressing, flow control, and error-handling mechanisms to conform to OSI standards.
