Review of Answers

A small graphical red and yellow X representing incorrect.a) Message Sets for External TMC to TMC Communication (MS/ETMCC)
Incorrect. SmartNET and the Dallas Regional Center-to-Center system utilize the MS/ETMCC in the Dallas ICM system.

A small graphical red and yellow X representing incorrect.b) Transit Communication Interface Protocol (TCIP)
Incorrect. The DART Data Portal utilizes the TCIP for some of its data elements in the Dallas ICM system.

A small graphical green and yellow check mark representing correct.c) 511 Dissemination Interface
Correct! 511 Dissemination Interface is not used in the Dallas ICM system.

A small graphical red and yellow X representing incorrect.d) Traffic Management Data Dictionary (TMDD)
Incorrect. SmartNET utilizes TMDD version 2.1 as the basis of its data dictionary. The Dallas Regional Center-to-Center system is based on TMDD version 2.1, with some localization.
