All Known Implementing Classes:

POAProtocolMgr
```
@Contract
public interface ProtocolManager
```
The ProtocolManager interface specifies the functionality of the remote communication layer, which provides the support for distribution described in Chapter 13 of the EJB spec. Possible implementations of the ProtocolManager include RMI/IIOP, RMI/JRMP, RMI/DCOM, RMI/HTTP ....

connectObject

void connectObject(Remote remoteObj)
            throws RemoteException
