Open Data-Link InterfaceODI (Open Data-Link Interface) is a software interface that allows different Data-Link Layer protocols to share the same driver or adapter in a computer. ODI was introduced by Novell. For example, using ODI, both TCP/IP and IPX/SPX can share the same device adapter. The Data-Link Layer, part of the Open Systems Interconnect ( OSI ) model, provides a way to move data across a physical link.
