NOTE: PROTOCOL.INI does not support some of the white space characters in a quoted string. If a string begins with an alphabetic character and contains no special characters, the quotes may be omitted.

For Packet string parameters, the string can be enclosed with double quotes or single quotes. If a string is quoted, any character except a “null” and the quote delimiter itself can occur between the quotes.

NOTE: If double quotes are used for a delimiter, a single quote may appear in the string, and vise versa. If the string begins with an alphabetic character and contains no special characters, the quotes may be omitted.

For numeric parameters, the value can be hexadecimal or decimal. Hexadecimal numbers must be preceded with the characters “0x” but all characters can be upper or lower case.

Mac address parameters are parsed as string parame- ters, therefore, the addresses must be enclosed in sin- gle or double quotes.

NOTE: The MAC address cannot be a multicast address.
