About communication components

Communication components contain properties and possibly other components that configure and represent communications ports, or other protocol layers. These components vary from driver to driver. Often, you must configure (or verify) these components to allow online operations.

For example, a BacnetNetwork contains a BACnet stack (Bacnet Comm) and a LonNetwork contains LonCommConfig.

See the driver guide for specific details on configuring a network’s communications components.
