===== Naming convention for communication channels =====

For the communication channels, it is convenient to form the short name of the channel type(( e.g. SMTP, POP3, hard disk, etc.)) and the direction((send or receive)) followed by an individual name.

==== convention: ====

<code> <channel type>.<direction>.<individual name> </code>

**Examples**:

  * SMTP.send.eGate
  * POP.receive.eGate
  * HD.send.Host
  * HD.receive.Host
  * FTP.send.Domain
  * FTP.receive.Domain
