Any idea on where/ how to configure OSI?

There was ISODE
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_Development_Environment).
I recall experimenting with it but didn't actually use it in anger.

I know that DEC/Compaq/HP Tru64 Unix (nee OSF/1) came with a OSI stack -
we had customers who wanted/used FTAM and I was surprised to find it
came with the OS.
