The Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) is a layer 6 (
presentation layer)
network protocol that offers file services for
Mac OS X and Classic
Mac OS. In Mac OS X, AFP is one of several file services supported including
Server Message Block (SMB),
Network File System (NFS),
File Transfer Protocol (FTP), and
WebDAV. It currently supports
Unicode file names,
POSIX and
access control list permissions, UNIX quotas,
resource forks, named extended attributes, and advanced file locking. In
Mac OS 9 and earlier, AFP was the primary protocol for file services.
