		+
		+	=== Variables ===
		+	In order to configure each partner with separate values, variables are neccessary to be defined. These are linked by a hyperlink in the most-right column of the protocol definition list. Each variable of a protocol will be filled with partner-specific values via the web interface dynamically.
		+
		+	[[Image:Protocol variable definition.png]]
		+
		+	=== Execution ===
		+	In order to send files to a configured partner, the plugin "enqueue to Seon" must be executed in the send plugin group. Refer to the documentation "[[Seon Server-side plugin philosophy\|Seon_Server-side_plugin_philosophy]]" for more details.
		+
		+	This plugin analyzes the configured protocol and starts, if configured, the configured put command in an asynchronous process. Keep in mind that the plugin "enqueue to Seon" is an asynchronous plugin which stops plugin execution of the send job after returning. So, 2 seconds after a successful return of the plugin "enqueue to Seon", the put command will be executed. Variable definitions are filled with values and given as parameter to the put command. The parameters of the command are:
		+	#temporary file containing all configured protocol variables with their values, also a node containing all files
		+	#filename for output
		+
		+
		+	The protocol script has to implement the mechanism of parsing the XML file. In default protocol implementations, all files are being transfered with their virtual filename as remote filename.
		+
		+
		+	After execution, the protocol command handler analyzes the returncode of the protocol command, passing it to the asynchronous plugin handler of the job (0=successful, any other value=error) and appends the protocol output as plugin log to the Seon send job.
		+
		+	If any further plugin is configured in the plugin group, it will be executed by the asynchronous plugin handler.
		+
		+	=== Protocols and software updates ===
		+	The standard protocols are always updated to the new distribution. If you need to re-configure a protocol, please clone the configuration to a new protocol definition including new variable definitions. In this case, no software update will harm your special implementation.

		+	*Be sure to configure a plugin group for a recipient which includes the plugin "enqueue to Seon" since this plugin executes the process of sending via another protocol instead of OFTP
		+
		+	== Detailled internals ==
		+	In Seon Enterprise, an unlimited amount of other protocols can be defined (when enabled) via the menu link "Other protocols". Each protocol has a name, commands for execution and variables. The only command used at the moment is the "put command" for sending files.
		+
		+	=== Commands ===
		+	The configured commands are:
		+	*''list command: list content of a directory (unused at the moment)''
		+	*put command: send files
		+	*''get command: download files (unused at the moment)''
		+	*''delete command: delete remote file (unused at the moment)''

−	~~''coming soon''~~	+	Seon Enterprise supports a freely definable amount of other protocols. As a basis for such a connectivity, a protocol script must be implemented which must support a single file as parameter (a XML file which contains details about what to do and with which configuration).
		+
		+	Configuration of all protocol dependant parameters can be done on per-partner panel. Every protocol can obtain as many parameters as wanted.
		+
		+	The following pre-defined and well-supported protocols are supported by Seon Enterprise (Lite):
		+	*anonymous WebDAV
		+	*FTP
		+	*FTPS
		+	*key-authentificated SCP
		+	*key-authentificated SFTP
