Each layer offers its services in the form of primitives. Four
classes of primitives are defined as shown in Figure 1. Request is
issued by the layer that wants to get the services or the information
from another layer, and Confirm is the acknowledgment of the request.
Indication is the notification of the information to the layer that
requested the service, and Response is the acknowledgment of the
indication.
