{{short description|Apple implementation of System V STREAMS networking stack}} {{Primary sources|date=March 2023}} '''Open Transport''' was the name given by [[Apple Inc.]] to its implementation of the [[Unix]]-originated [[UNIX System V|System V]] [[STREAMS]] [[networking stack]]. Based on code licensed from Mentat's [[Mentat Portable Streams|Portable Streams]] product, Open Transport was built to provide the [[classic Mac OS]] with a modern [[TCP/IP]] implementation, replacing [[MacTCP]]. Apple also added its own implementation of [[AppleTalk]] to the stack to support legacy networks.<ref>[https://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1117.html Apple Tech Note 1117] - Open Transport STREAMS FAQ</ref>
