The Session layer implements the user interface to the network.
It is responsible for connection negotiation and establishment.
The Session Control module performs the following functions:
o Manages transport connections on behalf of Session Control
users.
o Enforces access control policies to restrict communication
between users and between Session Control modules.
o Maps from a DNA Naming Service object name to protocols and
addresses.
o Selects from the set of protocols supporting Session Control
to attempt connection establishment.
