Remarks

This allows you to create, for example, a serial protocol containing some SNMP commands, or a protocol that is capable of communicating with multiple ports.

Protocol types have to be separated by semicolon (”;”).

For more information on ports, see:

Examples

If you have a protocol of type SNMP+Serial, you should always make SNMP the primary type and Serial the secondary type. See the following example:

<Type advanced="serial">snmp</Type>

It is also possible to specify a name for the additional type. To specify a name, the following format must be used: [type]:[name]

For example:

<Type advanced="serial:Name">snmp</Type>

The name is displayed in the element wizard and is also used to link port settings with the additional type.
