ABSTRACT:
The transports available in a local computer system for communicating with a remote computer system are automatically determined at either install time or run time. At install time, a list of transports supported by the local computer system is used to determine which supported transports are actually installed in the local computer system and the media dependent modules (MDMs) that correspond to those installed transports. At run time, a list of the installed transports and corresponding MDMs is used to determine which installed transports (and corresponding MDMs) can actually be used for an impending communications session with the remote computer system.
