This sections documents various protocols and transports that are
|
|
available in the distribution.
|
|
|
|
(((protocol)))
|
|
Protocols implement communication patterns, such as
|
|
request/reply, publish/subscribe, and so forth.
|
|
A given xref:nng_socket.5.adoc[socket] is created with exactly one protocol, and that
|
|
protocol defines the key behavior of the socket.
|
|
|
|
(((transport)))
|
|
Conversely, transports are the underlying mechansims by which messages
|
|
are moved between participants, such as TCP/IP or UNIX domain IPC.
|
|
A given xref:nng_socket.5.adoc[socket] may be using several transports at the same
|
|
time.
