CLNP meaning in Computer and Networking ?

Answer: What is Connectionless Network Protocol mean?

Connectionless-mode Network Service (CLNS) or simply Connectionless Network Service is an OSI network layer datagram service that does not require a circuit to be established before data is transmitted, and routes messages to their destinations independently of any other messages. As such it is a "best-effort" rather than a "reliable" delivery service. CLNS is not an Internet service, but provides capabilities in an OSI network environment similar to those provided by the Internet Protocol (IP). The service is specified in ISO 8348, the OSI Network Service Definition (which also defines the connection-oriented service, CONS.)
